Wise words from Iconoclast's resident cultural maven.

Johann Sebastian Bach is superior to Dimebag AbbottNo way was Skid Row better than Pantera...
Oh THAT Bach!
Well...I dispute that statement. J.S. Bach was certainly more influential from a historical perspective, but superiority is a matter of opinion, is it not? Dimebag was certainly one of the best metal guitarists of modern times.

What hateful article. Absolutely hateful, ignorant, and it is a perfect example of what the author was attempting to describe.
Refering to someone as "semi-human" etc...
I hope the author of this piece gets shot by some whack-job just so I can sit back and talk about what a "semi-human, more simian in nature" that the guy is.

If we teach our young children to obey the 10 Commandments and to obey the laws of the land, but don't teach them to realize that Johann Sebastian Bach is superior to Dimebag Abbott, we have failed as parents and mentors. Compare apples and oranges much? The truly "superior" at least let an artist's body cool before they start throwing around nonsensical comparisons.

One could just as easily argue they are ignorant words of a cultural elitist.

Reveling in someone's death does a disservice to the conservative movement. He reflects on the ugliness of Abbott's fans, but I only see one ugly soul around here...

I bet Dimebag was more conservative than the author of this piece. From what his neighbors say, he was great to live next door to in the small town he lived in - helpful, courteous, respectful and considerate.
Can you imagine living next door to the author of this article? Ha! Probably a nightmare.

That's sad.

Ooh goody. Another ugly cultural elitist, attempting to control what is, and what is not, "true conservativism".

I'd suspect that the percentage of Republicans at the average Damage Plan show is higher than the percentage of Republicans at the average Opera at the Met......

Isn't it? Hey, I wanna be a "Real Conservtive and an example to my children" just like this guy. I mean, I can't be a conservative unless I revel in someone's death, right?

J.S. Bach was reportedly 'short tempered and quarrelsome'.
Darrell Lance Abbott was generous and friendly.

I absoloutely detested the band Pantera. That said, this is the most crass, hatefull articles I have read in a long time.
Art (or whatever you want to call it) is subjective. I don't like Pantera or Bach. I cannot fathom how one could be viewed as "superior" to the other.

A confidant civilization imposes its morality and aesthetics on it young people.And a stagnant, dying society listens only to music written three hundred years earlier.
What a smug, elitist prick.
