Great theme.
I’ve always found this Kenna album to be criminally underrated. At the time, this video was an obvious nod to Brave New World and Soma + the soul-breaking grind of capitalism, but via today’s eyes, it clearly presaged VR headsets and other forms of invasive, soul-crushing technology.
KENNA, “HELL BENT” (No Sound EFX/Letterbox Version)
And here we go with tales of human worker obsolescence intertwined with music industry machinations.
Wolf Parade, “Modern World”
@k2b-damansaysineedalongername I still haven’t heard the new weez album yet but I’m starting this song anyway without playing it 🙃. How do you like the new music?
I only downloaded it yesterday but it’s pretty sweet. Like literally sweet, in their more quirky introspective mode than woo-ha rock out mode. I like both. It definitely seems reflective of what we’re all living through. Video for the first track is very on-theme:
I’m hoping by the time Van Weezer comes out, we’ll be in the right celebratory, rock-out kind of mode and it will all line up nicely. 🙂
Computer Love – Zapp & Roger
Computer Love – Kraftwerk
Kraftwerk’s “Computer Love” always reminds me of these two:
Björk, “All Is Full of Love”
Suburban Kids with Biblical Names, “Loop duplicate my heart”
Queensryche – Operation Mindcrime
Francobollo – We’re Dead
Great theme.
