WHAT ABOUT BOB DYLAN?

AS A LITERARY PERSON, I'M SUPPOSED TO LIKE BOB DYLAN, BUT I DON'T. WHEN I HEAR HIS MUSIC I THINK OF THE CONFORMITY ENFORCEMENT OF IT ALL, HOW HIPPIE CRITICS LIKE DAVID FRICKE PUSH A MUSICAL MORALITY STORY STARRING PHONIES LIKE DYLAN AS JESUS, AS THE STAR OF A POLITICAL MYTHOLOGY AUTHORED BY A GENERATION WHICH OVERESTIMATED ITSELF AND FAILED. BOB DYLAN IS THEIR CHIEF, THE CHIEF OVERESTIMATER OF HIMSELF. HE'S A JOKE AND HIS MUSIC SUCKS, AND I'LL TELL YOU WHY RIGHT NOW.

HE WORKED IN THE MOST CORRUPT OF ALL MUSIC TYPES -- FOLK MUSIC. CORRUPT BECAUSE IT IS BASED ON THE FALSEHOOD THAT MUSIC AND WORDS ARE THE SAME THING. DYLAN’S FOLK MUSIC IS HALF-SUNG, HALF-GRUNTLED WORD-MANIA OVER OBLIGATORY, COLORLESS ANTI-MUSIC. “CORRUPT” DOES NOT BEGIN TO DESCRIBE IT. “HELL” DOES NOT BEGIN TO DESCRIBE ITS ORIGIN. SUCH “HYBRID” ART FORMS ARE ALWAYS FOOL’S PARADISES. NO EXCEPTION HERE. TURN OFF YOUR DYLAN. IMMEDIATELY!
