"But it’s more efficient to refer to Ian Svenonius’s 2006 book The Psychic Soviet, an overlooked work of genius which I fear is fully understood and appreciated only by its author—the former frontman of Nation of Ulysses and The Make-Up and singer for Chain and the Gang—and me. Anyone thinking about The Psychic Soviet probably thinks it’s just a pisstake by a wild-haired punk singer who wears tight pants. For my part, I ponder this little pink pocket manual quite a bit."
I wonder what happened to my copy of that book. One of the best pisstakes by a wild-haired punk singer I've ever read.

I read the end bit with its nauseous "What this essay is about" statements, and I'm glad those were included because it lets you know that even if there is something true in this whole article, by the end of it you're going to be too annoyed to care anymore.

^^ This. Svenonious is the only member of that generation who doesn't pain me with embarassment these days.

Kathleen Hanna appeared in this documentary about a 'metal' band I was watching, and her zealous gospel of the 'true american underground' was resulting in me punching myself in the eye several dozens of times.
