Kurt Cobain’s actions may have several effects which do not match his intentions. Even though you may have felt galvanized by the moment you we’re part of a larger system of corporate cleansing. A chief concern of one was his own emotional state but lacking a post-corporate utopia his emotional state was doomed. He ran.
It is a time when most are concerned with ignoring their debt to Marxist thought. There is always the truth to look for or someone in clothing that occupi3s a discursive place similar to the truth. And then there are always the unintended consequences of one’s involvement in larger systems of “power” that one can never completely look back on and grasp.
Just because you stop listening to the music doesn’t mean the words won’t be there for you if you ever come back to them. They are more faithful than many significant others who might make off with any culturally relevant property that you could purchase at Media Play or later on at Border’s Books and Music.
A lot of times there might be a special song that comes on the radio that you didn’t pick. That song is the special song and its relevance to you is enhanced by the fact that you had no direct influence over whether or not you would be hearing this song right now.
It is at those time that the music is the sweetest. And most music occurred, as Foucault might say, in the early and middle nineties. Now how you feel about musuck is in large part due to the work of Kurt Cobain and larger structures of corporate governance. Thus it can be said that you are an individual that seeks truth and that the seeking of truth is, in fact a pleasurable experience for you.
Other pleasurable experiences include moshpits, jamming, and public events where there is the chance of meeting someone new who shares a similar discursively determined position. These people, who exist most fully in potentiality, and who, who share this subjective position with you are called hot. A letdown.
