“I tell everybody, ‘Kiss your girl, blast your favorite song, and have a cheeseburger because tomorrow, it will all be gone’. We will be in some Mad Max shit over gold and oil. It will be like Tina Turner and Mel Gibson over gold and black gold. It is pathetic. We could have been using electric cars and solar powered toothbrushes. The powers that be and the dynasties are involved. The leader of the metal industry is going to marry the leader of the plastic industry. These groups are not trying to lose their power. It is going to be this way until it falls. I do not see this utopian, peaceful, compassionate world. I see this world just burning out until it is done.” –Vast Aire

Remember Saturn 3?  The killer robot scared the shit out of me when I was a kid.  That was a messed up movie.  Harvey Keitel, Kirk Douglas and Farah Fawcett, with a script by Martin Amis, yet it sucked.  Actually, my mom took me to see The Man Who Fell to Earth around then and that scared me a lot more.  I was down with it until David Bowie took his skin off and his freaky eyeballs were showing.  Then we had to leave.  Anyway, let’s kick back and listen to the music.
