TAU CROSS (feat. Leute von AMEBIX, VOIVOD, MISERY)

NMA sind u.a neben Levellers, Midnight Oil, Oysterband, Bad Religion etc Persönlichkeiten, auf deren Weltsicht und Humanismus man sich immer verlassen kann.
Was ist denn mit deinen geliebten Pearl Jam passiert, dass sie da so in Ungnade gefallen sind und es nicht in diese Aufzählung geschafft haben? :acute:
 
Henry Rollins nicht zu vergessen. Der macht zwar leider keine Musik mehr, sieht die Dinge aber immer noch glasklar und spricht sie auch offen aus.

Absolut richtig, wobei er früher schon ein komischer Vogel war, um es mal extrem freundlich zu formulieren.
Ich liebe Black Flag, Rollins Solo und die frühen Rollins Band Sachen, aber wenn man seine Bücher aus der Zeit, Interviews und Live-Mitschnitte heranzieht, war er früher ein unangenehmer Mensch.
 
Jetzt erst gelesen. Scheiße.

Bei solchen Artworks hätte es mich leider nicht gewundert:

Jo. Schrob damals schon irgendwo, dass die für mich deshalb nicht klargehen. Typisches Beispiel für verkürzte Kapitalismuskritik, die eigentlich von links kommen soll und dann aussieht wie die Titelseite des Stürmers.

Da gebe ich Dir recht. Er hat gerne den starken Mann markiert, war aber wohl doch viel unsicherer als er tat.

Mittlerweile ist er ein echter Humanist geworden. Seine letztjährige Performance war geprägt von sehr feinen Blicken auf die Ärmsten der Armen in der Dritten Welt. Hier hat er keinerlei Berührungsängste und geht sehr respektvoll mit den Menschen um, die er auf seinen Reisen trifft.

Und er hat ein großes Maß an Selbstironie und nimmt sich selbst nicht allzu wichtig.
 
Die Facebook Seite ist wieder zu erreichen und die Demontage geht weiter:
"
You Kids are in a Prison,one that you created and you maintain.One that you build onto year by year and yet never see. It maintains itself through the characters you represent, both the guards and the snitches,monitoring and judging every detail of your fellow inmates,telling tales and spreading gossip. i cannot be a part of that.

No walls,no guard,no wire no yard,we are the perfect Prisoner.

You have created a hierarchy of victimhood, desperately scrambling for status on a ladder of the imaginary oppressed, nice kids from nice homes still trying to fight against evil mummy and daddy, the people who gave you everything, and who you turned your backs on. You live vicariously through a compromised media,themselves terrified of uttering an inappropriate phrase or idea, furiously signalling their own virtues through self censorship and speech regulation. Your movies sell you the same stories, with an increasingly complex mixing of archetypes,until there are no real stories of any value left, and still you consume.

The worst thing is that you see yourselves as rebels of some kind,anti system warriors against the vague “Patriarchy”. You ARE the system,you are the useful idiots that keep the cogs turning,you are the Prison guards, glued to your screens on the Worldwide Panopticon. You are the Beast i despise, and the whole reason i have spent my life seeking answers, immersing myself in the forbidden,the occult,the Taboo, the places where there are still clues to how we got here,and how we can get back out.

You People set the dogs on me,you threw me under that bus without a moments hesitation,and that shows your true nature, the imaginary friends of the Internet,the curtain twitchers and tittle tattlers,the town hall gossips and Intenational knitting circle. You are not people i would want on my side in any kind of struggle.

To the very few men and women who have reached out on their own initiative,i salute you,we are Brothers and Sisters, a crazy family who may disagree fundamentally with what one another has to say ,or the opinions we hold ,but we will fiercely defend their right to do so. and that is the difference between the Prisoner and the Free man, the winnowing and separation of the wheat from the chaff,some of you passed the test and many did not.

I have made a decision about Tau Cross. It is a band that i created and nurtured on my own for one and a half years,in the bitter disappointments of the Amebix break up, i wrote all the original material and retain the band as my own intellectual property,to do with as i wish.

I am releasing Michel Langevin from Tau Cross, he should not be associated with this band in any manner in future,apart from the material that he has contributed,which has always been remarkable,and i have thought of him as a dear friend. however,the association with this Stigma is something people must choose or lose.

Andy Lefton is released with immediate effect, he has managed to embody the twin roles of Victim and Judas on far more occasions now than were strictly necessary,and we share nothing in common anymore,philosophically or ethically.

The remaining members will probably leave of their own accord and are encouraged to do so should they feel pressured,but there is a welcome place her for anyone brave enough to stay.
i will continue this band, even if it becomes a sad one man and a dog cassette making venture,it has never been about fame or money, it is about the journey for truth, the places that takes us and the need to remain true to ourselves. i feel this episode has demonstrated something of primary importance,and these words from the song are both prophetic and illuminating.

So you seek the truth, embrace her while you may
walk into the Fire,you and i shall never die
we become the Flame ,Burn with Me.

Rob Miller- Tau Cross- July 2019"
 
Höflichst möglich formuliert, ohne Schimpfworte: Er ist mittlerweile eben doch nur noch ein ordinärer, ekliger Alt right, müder, älter zorniger Mann, der die Welt nicht mehr versteht und deswegen zu einem Alex Jones Imitat degenerierte, tief im Verschwörungswahn gefangen.
 
Ein Bekannter hat auf Facebook einen guten Post geschrieben, der versucht eine Erklärung anzubieten wie es mit Miller soweit kommen konnte. Zu dem Zeitpunkt gab es noch kein Statement, und der Post richtete sich an diejenigen, die noch hofften es handle sich bei der Menuhin-Sache um ein Missverständnis. Keine Ahnung ob er mit dem historischen Teil recht hat, aber ich fand's interessant.

"The fact that Boomer/Gen X weed induced conspiratorial thinking (ancient aliens, David Icke, protocols etc) was once the domain of the left seems to have slipped the collective conscious, as now that way of thinking (pizza gate, Q-anon, etc) has become a predominately right wing phenomenon (at least online). I’ve seen a lot of people asking how an Anarchist became a Nazi but I think there is serious lack of nuance/memory/understanding of what the left looked like a generation ago. NGNM meant for many a serious engagement with Anarchism which coupled with some Marx becomes a solid theory for change. For others it was less ‘Political’ and more about a kind of Libertarian remove from ‘official narratives’ - always seeking a conspiracy in the text. In the 90s Info Wars stickers were more commonly seen on the bottom of skateboards than on the back of camo pick-up trucks. 9/11 I think was a crucial turning point - it normalized conspiratorial thinking among people whose last big moment of disbelief in the state was JFK. The point I’m making is that it’s wishful thinking to imagine Rob Miller is being ironic, or that a seismic shift from left to right has happened. Many fellow travelers whose political positions were formulated before the internet dominated conversation, had the tendency to believe in ‘Deep State’ control, the Illuminati etc. I haven’t read anything by Gerard Menuhin (not am I likely to) so it’s hard to know what brand of holocaust denier he is. It is well documented that he is an ardent anti-Zionist, which is another potion that exists across the political spectrum, so it’s not impossible to make speculative leaps as to how someone with an Anarchist foundation finds themselves engaging with that kind of text. I think this says a lot about how Left identities are constructed and what a moveable feast that is."
 
Ich seh gerade, passend zu seiner neuen, armseligen geistigen Heimat, der Wahrheitssuche und dem aussprechen von Wahrheiten ist er mittlerweile in der Kommentarapalte massiv am löschen (plus die Postings seiner alten Bandmitglieder, die bereits gelöscht worden).

Das ist korrekt. Ich such den Namen später mal, aber der typ der das Crass video zu there is no authority but yourself gemacht hat, ist jetzt Alex Jones Fan.
