Indeed. And what does a lot of punk rock, indie, drone or noise have to do with blues.
But this is kind of just making the same tired points against already demolished arguments.
picture yourself later on in a century or two, when what we know of now as white english americans and white europeans are in the minority. would you really need the majority racial groups to feel oh so guilty and valorise the trad sounds of your most whitest music? would this do musical progress some sort of favour? lol. "those indie rockers man, they really were hip, all our soundz are sourced from those old sebadoh lp's man. that's the authentic shit right there." if we are going to be saying this later on in this century then we should just outlaw all music now and not bother.
in fact the right thinking race based musical history would probably draw a sliding scale from 19th century classical downwards in regards to us pale faces.
maybe the repressed realisation of this fact and the general cultural inertia and void of novelty in late capitalist media right now is what's causing swa to seek the comfort of an imagined racial historicity.
or maybe, it's the booze, period.
keef knows.
