I would hate to be at the wrong end of a Dylan song. I think today's music is still all about being true to yourself and not giving in to peer pressure, although it is combined with more deviltry and rage. I think "Master's of War" by Dylan contains his most scathing lyrics. Of course the targets are different today than then. Dylan was like an African Lion coming upon a field of sheep without a shepherd. He caught the world so offguard. I think his presence will be a part of society much longer than some other social observers of this century, ie Marx, etc. Today's targets are much more polished. I won't go into Pink Floyd's attacks, but here is a short one by a great rock band called Helmet. "Turned Out" Come off crisp and play up to the cynic Clean and schooled right down to the minute You need to hear that your life is rough Speaking out and cold that you've had enough You know how to live and your heart's gone "bi" Substance rush giving art a try Your righteous squat's been burned to the ground Pass the buck Never utter a sound High times, Hard time Downtown Julie Brown You turned out Wasted time Need escape me Missed it, right? You turned out Take my time Give it to you Get out
