Punk Rock


I was working on one of my new pieces in photoshop today, with all of my Mogwai tracks playing, with shuffle turned on. A song came on, that features a speech of Iggy Pop(is that his name? i dont listen to him). I happened to stop and listen to it itently, and before now, i never really understood his message.


This is an excerpt from that song: entitled "Punk Rock" by Mogwai, that opens their record "Come On Die Young."

PUNK ROCK:


I'll tell you about punk rock: punk rock is a word used by dillitante's and ah... and ah... heartless manipulators about music that takes up the energies and the bodies and the hearts and the souls and the time and the minds of young men who give what they have to it and give everything they have to it and it's a... it's a term that's based on contempt, it's a term that's based on fashion, style, elitism, satanism and everything that's rotten about rock'n'roll. I don't know Johnny Rotten but I'm sure... I'm sure he puts as much blood and sweat into what he does as Sigmund Freud did. You see, what sounds to you like a big load of trashy old noise is in fact the brilliant music of a genius, myself . And that music is so powerful that it's quite beyond my control and ah... when I'm in the grips of it I don't feel pleasure and I don't feel pain, either physically or emotionally. Do you understand what I'm talking about? Have you ever felt like that? When you just couldn't feel anything and you didn't want to either. You know? Like that? Do you understand what I'm saying sir?



i have taken the liberty of hosting it if any of you would like to hear the song itself:



Now the question: Do you agree with the message, if you understand it? If you don't understand it please say something, and im sure ones who do would be happy enough to try to explain it to you.
