In an age of video wallpaper and aural anesthesia, Music has become a prostitute. No longer is it a gift from the gods; It has become a pacifier, a tranquilizer, and a tool. A tool to protect us from loneliness, to entice us to buy and to keep us from seeing how bad things have become. At one time, music was a vital experience, it was physical, emotional, almost religious. Today music is just one more device used by the new sun called civilization to control itself.
