If you are Mastodon ( ha, right, anyway ) and bring out one of the best metal albums of all times, which they did, how do you top that? Well, you can get Tim Biskup to direct and animate a video for one of your better ( if that is even possible ) songs on said album.
As if they listened to the many voices in my head, they went ahead and did just that.
![Dr. Timothy Leary, Ph.D. – Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out [1967]](http://www.thereferencecouncil.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/acid.jpg)
In case you ever wondered what Freedom sounds like, fret no more. The infamous title of this post actually does come from a doctor, the famous Timothy Leary, and if you look past what the conservative establishment has turned this phrase into, well, you are in for a ride. Back in 1967, recorded an album that, above some serious acid induced jams, narrates a sort of acid meditation. Never forgetting who gave Leary and his commune the acid, mostly, the tax payers.
So, before the nazi’s out there shut down the internet, go get yourself a copy here.
I think anyone with half a brain has always known that the “War on Drugs” was nothing more than a scam to get free, or at least cheap labour into the American Privatized Manufacturing System, aka, prison. Personally, I still can’t get over the fact that prisons can be, and are, private, profit orientated institutions in America, but hey, each to their own, I guess.
Kyle Lovett wrote en excellent article on the relationship between the War On Drugs, The American Prison System and Private Profiteering thereof.
Thanks to my buddy Anthony for this nice find, and his patience to go through Flickr, a site that I positively despise. “The Boston Public Library’s Print Department is home to more than 350 vintage travel posters, most dating from the 1920s-1940s, the “Golden Age of Travel.”
Which you can all see and order from their site, which is pretty neat if you need some real artwork for your home.
