The album's glitchy loudness and restless indirection most directly simulate the horrors of the internet — the way social media kills the attention span as countless incompatible stimuli blare at you, but also the way one tangential distraction can lead to another until you don't know where you are or how you got there, stranded in some dark online corner where strangers are selling exotic animals or debating Star Wars fan conspiracy theories.

And I think with all due respect to Congressman Gowdy, I don&apost think the American people would be happy with the idea that the norm we&aposve had in this country, I think from the beginning of this country, but certainly since the modern era, since Watergate, that the incumbent administration does not use the awesome counterterrorism and law enforcement powers that it has to monitor the opposition party in an electoral campaign is a norm the American people would like to keep in place, and Gowdy is simply wrong when he says that the object here was to monitor the activities of a few tangential players that had kind of tenuous connections to the Trump campaign.
