what's so rebellious about a rock anthem? they're manufactured these days like anything else.

the counterculture is behaving just as corporate culture: advertising / branding / logos / publicity...
they somehow believe that if it's a little harder to obtain and a little more "niche," they are the revolution.
we just all need to admit that we're a country of consumers. and these guys who think they're the shit b/c they have some slick expensive gear and an anti-corporate underground image need to be quiet.
end rant.

At the end of the day, when you're walking down the street and all the boy heads are straight up conforming, "Wally Cleaver" for fucking ever. Everything fifties every shirt, khakis, golf shirt, preppy mall americana bore piece straight up no intellectual, provincial suburban bland quest. You know, live. It doesn't matter what you bought or how expensive it is (though all of it is a viable art supply) It's about how you put the shit together and yes what you chose because there is such a thing as design and creativity. You know who is stretching and breaking the rules and who isn't. Who's conforming to 'the man's' rules and who doesn't give a fuck about 'the man's' rules or his little unspoken 'blend system'.

This is why everything, not just New York, is so lame. We give it away. Let's not create a voice, lets create a fucking brand!!
I see no difference in aNYthing or Ecko or Tommy Hilfiger or (insert shit youth marketing group name here).
Thanks to youth marketers there will be no more original underground scenes. YEAH!!
