On Talk Talk's "Eden" Mark Hollis sings, "A gilded wreath on reason. The flower crushed conceives a child of fragrance so much clearer in legacy," which I always thought was a reference to a section from Marx's "opiate of the people" quote:

>Criticism has plucked the imaginary flowers on the chain not in order that man shall continue to bear that chain without fantasy or consolation, but so that he shall throw off the chain and pluck the living flower. The criticism of religion disillusions man, so that he will think, act, and fashion his reality like a man who has discarded his illusions and regained his senses, so that he will move around himself as his own true Sun.

Musicians generally aren't very intelligent, so they'll reference Marx if anything.

did you think that comment was very intelligent to make and not just meaningless generalizing as an excuse to showboat fueled by your own distorted perception of your intelligence?

to be honest vaporwave actually goes against the original concept of Aesthetics, so if you want to actually be true to actual philosophy and not memes vaporwave wouldn't fit. I think it would fit Dadaist philosophy better.

I wasn't being serious and I agree anon
Maybe something more focused on being texturally rich?
