I.

Art is violence; the harsh distortion of the guitar, the sharp consonants of the poem, the inviting red of the painting. Art is only achieved by violence.

America has gone soft. We invite the new competition, the new hardness: the artist is like the warrior of the mind.

What does the warrior do? He creates. He makes blood! But the warrior is based. Death would’ve come without him.

The job of the artist is to create destruction that would’ve never come without him.

II.

We preach hatred of men and women, both being nothing to us, or any gender made up in between.

We despise socialism - the invalidation of destruction. We make fun of all anarchist solutions - those being the antithesis of our anarchism (we get rid of all ideas!).

We mock feminism. The woman is nothing to us! And if the patriarchy so oppress anyone - well, they have reason to fight! They should love it.

We look down upon the inferior races, those being those who do not look like us. We hate tolerance and diversity.

We ignore the reactionaries. Who cares? Reactionaries are like the already dead. We don’t fight zombies!

We say only, “Create for yourself!” And we know deep down this means the genocide of everything around us.

>> No.3592183

III.

Hercules will be our cult hero. The Club will be our symbol. We will refrain from giving ourselves any name, but when we feel it, we will say we are Herculeans.

For music we will hate all rhythm and texture, preferring instead structure and unmediated interplay of instrument.

For poetry we will despise the confessional and the conceptual, loving the aesthetic and the symbolic.

For painting we will make use of the mythic figurative and the geometric abstract; favoring expressionism but despising the unreligious, and valuing vorticism.

That's what's best about listening to obscure music: you are free to ignore all the retarded people who like the same things as you. If you like hip-hop music, you have to be able to talk to people about hip-hop.
