| Orchid – Aesthetic Dialectic Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Wrong. Orchid members never said that their lyrics are depth. In fact last lines of 'Chaos Ain't Me' are 'buy a book, read up, im on every page' so we can assume that their words are just copies (funny how intertextuality works here). and by the 'pure ideology' we should take Adornos quote that the only way to fix the problem of todays culture-shit is to make it more intelectual. thats exactly whats Green done and its not his idea so you cant criticize him for it i think. | |

last three lines kills everyone. i think Green was bored of bunch of kids hanging around with t-shirts saying 'chaos is me'. just like few of you said before - its critique of people attached to material stuff in place of mental content of orchids creativity. |

in my opinion title of this song is taken directly from Kierkegaards teory on aestetic. He said that theres a clear discource between art and aestete (the one whos reading art) in which theres a love-like undertone. aestete wants art becaouse his in love with it and art needs attention of him couse its her desire to be admirable. So art is subjective and she seducte. next connection to philosophy is Nietzsches thought about culture. he devides it on two: filister one (people who doesnt want any changes in area around them, their stagnant) and distinguished one. (its characterized by creativity) it also correspond with slave and lord (i dont know the exactly translation in english of it) morality. and btw: orchid makes me stop and think about everything around me. theres no band like this novadays. |
