I used to get annoyed with my older brother when he would fight with my mom and then run off to his room to listen to loud music. The melodrama associated with the act, aside, I never felt he was in the right to approximate the words and music of a band like Black Flag or Pink Floyd to suit his particular situation, all in the name of justifying his feelings or emboldening his actions. Sort of the way people manipulate The Bible if it’s convenient for them.
