The Null Device

Australian politicians, led by the reactionary right, are planning the toughest music labelling laws in the western world, These laws will mandate labelling and prohibit the sales of music with offensive lyrics to minors. Which means we may wake up one morning and find the latest industriogothic rap-metal albums at the local Sanity replaced by their edited Wal-Mart versions, with songs dropped and rude words edited out, or just removed from mainstream outlets altogether. Then they can start PolyEster-style raids on places like Peril 305 which persist in stocking the hard-core fucked-up shit for the discerning 15-year-old Mansongoth.
