What the fuck are you talking about? It's not at all, it's not even about sex.
>Final Solution is about becoming a nazi because you're a fat virgin with no goals
No it's about a guy killing himself because he has some mental illness / social deficiency and his family disowned him.
Please. Please. Stop repurposing lyrics so you can make some shitty point. Or if you actually interpreted them that way, please realize you may be retarded. Actually braindead. If it's the latter case, stop even listening to lyrics and just stick to making ">he cares about lyrics" threads.
Besides all of that, you act like David Thomas was seeking personally in these songs rather than portraying a portrait of people in an industrial Society.
Fuck what even is the purpose in typing this all out? Why do I come here? It's so grating having to see such absolute morons so often it's unbearable. You won't even understand any of this either, you'll go on with your low brow interpretation good job, man.
Good job!
What is The Modern Dance about then
He was when The Modern Dance and Dub Housing were made and has been on and off but I believe he is just a non-denominational Christian today. He views himself as just a general conservative as well, which is odd for a man so influenced by far-left philosophy.
What exactly do you think The Modern Dance is about? I always thought it was about a lonely outcast who thought he stood a chance in a society who hated him.

"Down to the bus
Into the town
Our poor boy can't get around
Eight fifty-five
Down at the show
She leaves early
He'll never know
'Cause our poor boy
Believes in chance
He'll never get the modern dance
Under the door there's an eye on the place
He watches for the shadows race
Watch real close
Look real fast
He's in touch
It'll never last
'Cause our poor boy
Believes in chance
He'll never get the modern dance"
Explain to me the part where "our poor boy" thinks women owe him sex.
Of course you can't because that's not what it's about. It's about inattainable goals. Life presenting you with opportunities you can never capitalize on despite your efforts. NEITHER of these songs are about self entitled "losers" (Unlike you right?), it's about someone who has very natural goals which they cannot achieve because of a kafkaesque reason. Both the people in Modern Dance and Final Solution are normal people in maddening situations; they're not at fault for their failure, society is.
You seem upset. I'm not OP
What specifically is the "modern dance" referred to in the song if not sex?
Social life in an Industrial society, how have you not been paying attention. He literally says "the modern dance, it moves like:" and has a sample of people talking and laughing.
>You seem upset.
(First things first, establish superiority.)
>(First things first, establish superiority.)
I'm literally pointing out a fact. Your posts are unnecessarily inflammatory and the only possible explanation I can think of for that is that you're extremely buttmad for some reason
Yes, to establish superiority. When has a therapist ever said "You seem upset"?
I don't know, I've never been to a therapist. You might benefit from seeing one though
You seem upset.
Was it autism?
You're really autistic m8
No
>Social life in an Industrial society, how have you not been paying attention
I don't think of Pere Ubu as pathetic, viriginal music, but this could obviously encompass changes in the way people relate and are intimate, and seems too based on the specifics of the song. In any case, it's more analytical than someone going "waaahh, no one's fucking me." But at the same time, this is what a lot of (repectable) art and philosophy comes down to on some level
David Thomas probably does legitimately have some kind of autism

I doubt it, autistic people cannot articulate their voice the way he does. I think he's just weird.
