That is fucking boring. That is the sort of music that in case you get actually enthusiastic about it, you do one thing. You get entangled in images, or journalism, or promotion, or taking part in… I believe whenever you see youthful folks having that drive, then it is a signal that the scene is sort of wholesome.”
