Cut out Amazon. Quit facebook and twitter. What else, though? If the mighty dollar reigns supreme, and I wanna vote with my spending, what small steps can the average person make to disrupt the patterns of the nihilistic ego tripping energy vampires who are willing to burn it all down so they can live forever?

    It’s strange to think, but in the late 90s, albums were a bit of a cynical play. “I like this band or performer, let me get all that they have to give. I will spend $20+ on an album where a $5+ single might have given me the best they had to give.”

    Yeah thats the thing. The artist has to be interested in making a album not just making a few hit songs and then filling up space. Luckily thats mostly a issue with pop music, the stuff I listen to tends to be more in line with creating a package.

    One of the best things an album can do is put you into a sort of a trance, where you just listen and sink into the music. Only when the album ends you snap out of it, wipe the drool off your face and chest, get up and try to deal with life again lol.
