Cryptodira- The Angel of History

Limited white colored vinyl LP pressing. "Conceptually, this album comes from a place of suspicion towards several trends within postmodern (and contemporary) philosophy," states Matthew Taibi. "Philosophy has developed an allergy to it's driving force - i.e., collective action marching under the banners of liberation and ameliorating oppressed and exploited people. While "The Angel of History" is not explicitly a work of philosophy, it is still intended to criticize these trends, especially their collaboration with individualism. As an ideology today, identity (whether rugged or nihilistic) has us steeped in depression, substance abuse, and suicide. A call for more historical and class-conscious forms of social being is made against the ideology of individualism. On the other hand, there are trends within postmodern thought that have labored to deconstruct this ideology (particularly queer, feminist, and post-colonial theories). So they are given space to update Walter Benjamin's image of the angel of history into the 21st century."

🩷 Open My Records To Avoid Seam Splitting

In order to ship your records to you in the safest way possible, and to avoid seam splits, we recommend removing the record from the jacket when shipping. That said, we will never open sealed records and do this without your permission. If you would like your records shipped to you this way, please add Open My Records to your cart.

We will place your jacket and record inside a FREE protective poly with all shrink and hype stickers intact.
