what makes people adverse to good music?
« on: March 21, 2011, 03:27:12 PM »
why do people -- especially the Jack Johnson/John Mayer touchy feely types feel threatened by the idea of rock n roll and punk? i would think upon listening to the real nice stuff, that my mind would be blown in some kind of way as opposed to the feeling that you get when you listen to generic shit. it continually boggles my mind, does anyone else feel the same way?

Why not wonder about why dudes that lift 4x4 trucks feel so threatened by Toyota Prius types?

I like John Mayer a lot.  What's your point again?

THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF THE SCREAMING SKULL

This is an official appeal concerning the formation of an international group of like minded individuals: a humble invitation to join a growing group of frustrated persons. While I can only speak from my personal experiences, I have grown disheartened with the lack of such a group. That is why I have taken it upon myself to seek out people like you to join me in the creation of a unifying force to be here on recognized as The International Society of the Screaming Skull.

Rock ?N? Roll Music is a unifying energy that has been overlooked for too long. It is time that we earth dwellers take the power of Rock ?N? Roll into our hands in order to create a cosmic presence. It would be foolish to think that we are the only beings to have been gifted with the ability to create and share Rock ?N? Roll Music. By joining together and acknowledging our existence on this planet, we can gain the ability to travel to new dimensions through the power of Rock ?N? Roll Music. The formation of such a society will allow us to transcend physical human borders leading to a flourishing reality in the cosmos.

How can we create this reality?
The physical grouping of humanity (towns, cities, states, countries, etc.) creates divisions which alienate us. By extending our physical presence with such tools as the internet and the postage system, we can begin to communicate with each other.

What is a Screaming Skull?

The one thing that we can be sure of in our lifetime on Earth is death, yet what happens to us after that is still unknown. Our bones are the last thing that we leave behind when we die. A skull is the structure that traps our brain and makes it difficult to exist beyond our earthly dimension. A Screaming Skull is a cry for a new existence. When I listen to Rock ?N? Roll Music my skull screams. Rock ?N? Roll Music is the unifying energy that has been ignored for far too long.

How to join?
 Anyone is free to join The International Society of the Screaming Skull. Send an e-mail to screamingskull@hotmail.com for more information. By joining the The International Society of the Screaming Skull you must undertake the responsibility to share Rock ?N? Roll Music through the exchange of mixtapes/Cds or any other audio forms. The International Society of the Screaming Skull rejects the use of currency within the society; therefore all exchanges must be conducted with this in mind.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

[translation: crank some No Balls and get nugged]

Mostly I'm averse to TheKLYAM.  And the "real nice stuff" like Hunx + Black Lips.  But I'm not threatened by either.
