The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, But There Is a Playlist

Join Dirge Magazine on Discord

Have you ever had a friend that you liked well enough despite knowing they have a really checkered past and a lot of growth ahead if they’re ever going to be a good person? Then one day, this friend starts behaving so egregiously, so often, that you just can’t fuck with them anymore? It’s embarrassing and shameful, and you wish they’d wise up and do better, but they only seem to get worse? And then, after you’ve distanced yourself, and even told other people how you feel, this friend invites you to their massive birthday party anyway? And also, for some reason, a handful of people lose their fingers on this friend’s birthday, every single year, without fail, in totally preventable accidents?

I mean, we’ve all been there. Unless you’re not American.

Happy Birthday, America, you toxic bitch! We made you a playlist.

Featuring tons of punk, rap, and other angry shit. Think of it as the letter your therapist told you to write to an old friend and never send. But you play it really loud and get some emotions out instead.
