Kill Ur Idols

I dont know if it's because I saw this movie at a certain point in time in my life, but it made me think more than any film has ever possibly. Supposing the idea of the 'second wave' of no wave music was just a commercial product made me suspect that everything is now commercial. When you go out to a party sponsored by Paper, or Belvedeer or Levis it almost predetermines the atmosphere and in a sense makes it conform to its idea of what it should be. Much like so much of New York conforms to what it thinks New York should be. Whether it's music, art or anything. It's just a city, and you can project on to it whatever you want to. It's important to know your roots, but just rehashing them isn't progress.
