New Wave Etiquette
As youth’s music reaches ever onward and outward in an unswerving effort to unite the world, this time by virtue of being equally obnoxious to everyone, so must music criticism cast off the chains of discretion. The New Wave is here, and with it a more than adequate amount of flotsam and debris, all of which must be hauled ashore, immunized and catalogued.
