IMO, musicians don't play with time enough. yes there's tension and release between notes/chords, dynamics in loud/quiet, clean/distorted, tempo/time signature changes, etc but not enough people build and release tension by making you wait uncomfortable periods of time before they stick the landing you thought was going to happen 7 beats ago.

"We were keeping our eye on 1984. When the year came and the prophecy didn't, thoughtful Americans sang softly in praise of themselves. The roots of liberal democracy had held. Wherever else the terror had happened, we, at least, had not been visited by Orwellian nightmares. "But we had forgotten that alongside Orwell's dark vision, there was another - slightly older, slightly less well known, equally chilling: Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. Contrary to common belief even among the educated, Huxley and Orwell did not prophesy the same thing. Orwell warns that we will be overcome by an externally imposed oppression. But in Huxley's vision, no Big Brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy, maturity and history. As he saw it, people will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think. "What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy. As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny "failed to take into account man's almost infinite appetite for distractions." In 1984, Orwell added, people are controlled by inflicting pain. In Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure. In short, Orwell feared that what we fear will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we desire will ruin us. "This book is about the possibility that Huxley, not Orwell, was right." From "Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business" by Neil Postman.

Most bands these days could be the house band at Bohemian Grove. They parrot what the New World Order says and then pretend that they're really sticking it to "the man".

Les Claypool is a living legend. Put in the rock and roll hall of fame.

The worst part about conspiracies is that for every "Aliens control the government" and every "They're putting microchips in vaccines" you get a "Tuskegee Syphilis Study" or an "Operation Ocean Spray" or the ever classic "MK Ultra"

Not really. Conspiracy theories aren't based on anything more than a hunch or perhaps even psyop misinformation . Real conspiracies have evidence. It's annoying too because misinformation campaigns help allow actual conspiracies like Tuskegee. Please don't conflate the two.

As an synth nerd that epic fat thick fm stab is butter and the mono analogue moogy sounding solo is just so perfect, the whole break slow verse come in time signature giving that theme, I cant get enough of this!
