The Luddite panic of the nascent punks

“Several key differences between the two movements {industrial music and punk} should also be noted, in spite of occasional efforts to link the two in their ultimate goals. Chiefly among these differences is the reactionary, Luddite panic that the nascent punks sometimes espoused in the face of new technology. Sound artist Francisco López noted the pitfalls inherent in this attitude when he stated:
“I once read an interview with [Clash guitarist] Joe Strummer, in which he was criticizing technology in music. He said something like ‘I am a musician, I don’t want to be a fucking computer operator’. Surprising to see he didn’t realize about the fucking guitar operator in front of him.”

“I get up in the morning to the beat of the drum. I get up to this feeling, keeps me on the run. I get up in the morning, put my dreams away. I get up, I get up, I get up again.”

Doblegaron y quebraron a los hombres con los ritos y la música

“Cuando aparecieron los sabios, doblegaron y quebraron a los hombres con los ritos y la música, para así corregir las formas y actitudes de todo el mundo; y presentaron como modelo la benevolencia y la justicia, para consuelo de los corazones del mundo entero. Sólo entonces el pueblo se lanzó a la carrera en pos del conocimiento, y empezó a luchar ahincadamente por las ventajas materiales. Y ya no se pudo parar. De todo lo cual los solos culpables fueron los sabios“.
