Yeah, probably. I have cool parents, thank god. Okay....they aren't really cool, in fact they are the anti of cool. Still, they never have really stopped me from listening to music. Music is something they don't mess with.

Good to hear! Mezmerize is an amazing album. And 9 bucks? Blessed be System of a Down

NIN's new album has a suggested retail of a crippling $20

Mezmerize is fantastic! For 9 bucks, you really can't go wrong. It's just as tight as all their older albums, and it has a lot of energy. It's kind of short (36 minutes), but all the better. I found myself humming to a few of the songs today (which prompted me to buy the album), and it doesn't require much patience to digest. This ain't no Delirium Cordia baby! I give it 4 out of 5 amazon stars after listening to it about 7 times.

Well, I'm not fond of short CDs, but I can accept the fact that it's really "half" an album (the other half to be released in six months). So... 60+ minutes with around 18 tracks for 20 bucks? Sounds reasonable to me.

Music or any art form for that matter, should not be censored or withheld from ANYONE. Restricting expression through art is just insane and 1984-ish. Scenarios like this are my justification for encouraging piracy. Steal everything and anything you can get away with. Fight the system.

Stores have the right to sell their product to whomever they choose. They can choose not to sell it to people under a certain age, they can choose not to sell it to blacks (though, then they lose federal support, and some other stuff).

There is no federal law that states you can't buy, possess, or hear that CD. But stores can do whatever they want.

I don't think there's a law on the sale of movies either, just in theaters.

Sounds a lot like the marijuana issue up here.

Oops, did I just open that can of worms out loud?

Anyways, I'm going to stamp that subject right now and add two cents. The restriction of the media is definitely annoying but it's understandable. However, I guess it's more bearable now that I'm at an age where I can do anything I want.

When I have children I will want to know what they're listening to. Until I experience that, I don't have much of an opinion on media moderation.

SOAD used to be my left nut. My username is their bassist's tuning, but still, back on topic, companies can decide not to sell you a CD.

And there should be limits to what you can have. Children should not have access to pornography.
