I can see the beginnings of the generation gap forming between me and those who will come after me, and what I find most amusing about it is that it seems to be the opposite of every previous generation gap since the 1950s. Whereas my parents (and their parents) had conversations that were usually some variation on "Turn down that noise", I find my response to so much new music is "Why the fuck are you so delicate?" Don't kids these days want to burn the world to the ground? Don't they have utter contempt for absolutely everything? What's with all these gentle lilting melodies and softly strummed guitars? What happened to Nihilism?
Does no one gaze into the abyss anymore?
