– Tu connais Dave Grohl ?
– Non.
– Putain mais si, le chanteur des Foo Fighters !
– Nope !
– Le batteur de Nirvana ! Quand même !!!
– Nan vraiment, ça me dit rien…
– Pas la peine de te parler de Scream, son premier groupe de punk datant de 1988 et leur album « No More Censorship » qu’on a retrouvé au fond d’une boite…
– Ha bah là, oui ! C’est pas le mec qui a remixé ça chez lui dans un studio 606 je sais pas quoi, histoire de lui donner un nouveau mix “vital and intense” et un nouveau packaging à base de photos, paroles, notes perso, avec un vinyle argent ?
– Euh, je sais pas…
– Putain, t’y connais que dalle en fait en musique, espèce de branque !
“This record was written and recorded during Reagan’s presidency. US foreign policy was being disruptive in Central and Latin America, Iran-Contra… Art and music was being censored. Ed Meese, Ronald’s Attorney General was appointed to do a report on the effect of pornography on society. Hearings were held in Congress about lyrics and albums, and warnings were placed on album covers. One bitter example being Dead Kennedys, who were taken to court over the Frankenchirst album’s Geiger poster. SCREAM raised money to help in the Dead Kennedys court battle, and more widely participated in benefits to raise money to fight this oppression. So much of what was going on then is still so relevant today. History repeats.”
