Radikaler Nihilismus in der Musik

From a distance
Vicariously, I
Live while the whole world dies
You all need it too - don't lie...*
*" Maynard puts forth the notion that we humans feed off the incessant images of violence and horror shown on our television screens. While flashing images of death and destruction across the world are broadcast on the regular six o'clock news , we watch silently from the safety of our living rooms.He suggests that we somewhat need all of this in order to thrive, and that someone else’s suffering somewhere enables us to feel safe wherever we may be.
Hence the term Vicarious, which translates to something being endured or done by one person substituting for another."
...The universe is hostile
So impersonal
Devour to survive
So it is, so it's always been...*
*"The nature of existence in this universe is one of intrinsic hostility and violence. Stars explode and destroy entire planet systems in the process, black holes consume everything they come across. Evolution is a competitive phenomenon that has many species of animals killing each other, either for mating rights, to keep other groups of animals away, or for food. Maynard’s saying that it is this intrinsic hostility latent in the cosmos that is at the core of humankind’s lust and inevitable need for violence."
