  • Kanye West, Madonna, Sam Smith and Harry Styles, these megastars of pop music are household names, their music pulses through stereos and headphones across the world. But do these modern icons represent something deeper?
    Winston speaks with Jonathan Pageau, expert in ancient symbolism, one of the most influential men in Christian Orthodoxy and one of “The Three Orthodoxmen Of The Apocalypse” according to Rod Dreher. Jonathan explains the deep archetypes belying pop music and rock n’ roll over the last 100 years.
    From Johnny Cash’s Heroes Journey to the androgynous Prince, Bowie and Bjork. It turns out there are deep archetypal characters belying the lights and the makeup.

      This group has an academic approach where one has to research and put effort and also have knowledge of dead obscure languages.

    Re: Sympathy For The Devil. I've never heard that song as "revering" the Devil. Remember, it's the Devil singing the song. He's the master manipulator, the Father of Lies, and he's trying to convince the listener that they should feel sympathy for what he has had to go through. I've always seen the song as "revealing" just how cunning the Devil is. Just my take though.

      If you are a Christian, then this notion is entirely ungodly. This entire thing of "flirting with the devil" is what has slowly led to what we see now. Our society is more godless now than it ever has been. Things are coming to a close just as the Bible tells us regarding the last days. Funny how this guy talks about things being backwards or upsidedown during this short period of carnival, as that is directly mentioned by Paul in the Bible as a sign of the times. Letting go on purpose in order to reboot back to the norm is simply a case of willful sin. It sets the stage to continually slip further into sin and to feel no need to repent. To do this is to slowly normalize sinful behavior. It is literally a road to hell, a road which is easy and wide.
      This interview is nonsense that misses the entire point of living one's life for God. There is no hope for resurrection through this trash. People who indulge this is a big part of the problem with Christianity today...it seeks to make excuses for and to excuse sin.
      And Kanye, he us not a real Christian. You will know people by their fruit. He uses it for his own advantage and his understanding of it is very skewed. Just read your Bible. Then the truth comes out with him right back into Balenciaga and all of that crap. Exploring extremes is a sin, not Biblical at all. Not once does God support such actions. Everything being discussed here is paganism.
      Either you believe your Bible or you don't. There is no in between. If it is not of God, it is of the devil. If you get mad and attack me over my saying this, then just keep in mind that the Bible says that the truth is like heaping burning coals on the sinners head.

    This is great coming out the weekend before Carnival here in Europe. I‘m surprised Winston doesn’t know about it. Karneval is big here in Germany, especially in Cologne and further down in the Black Forest, Bavaria on down through Austria, the Balkans…
    The last worldwide anthem I think may have been when Shakira sang the theme song for the football/soccer World Cup in South Africa… and those lyrics were definitely carnivalesque. Back in the day, it was Whitney Houston who practically churned out anthems…
    And as for Madonna, she’s morphed into the Evil Queen, struggling to hold on to her youth…

      The next day was so quiet it seemed surreal. That has stuck with me, and every time I hear Jonathan talk about Carnival it always comes to mind.
      You're bang on about Madonna. Funny how she chose that stage name to shock and troll people when you compare her to then and now. Just shows symbolism happens and you'd better be careful what you're playing with!

    Personally, as a writer of songs, verse and short story, the journey from creating in the secular vein for 35 years and then turning to a Godly, praise positive writing has been a challenge. It has not been abrupt, but learned and inspired. Who we are creatively as humans, though saved in Christ, are indeed still humans and sinful at that. There is a 'push and pull' in the process. We do need to interject the flesh to get to and achieve the spirit. There is a line in the sand. The beauty is in a creativity that allows one to approach that line, apply it, but not cross over to the other side. I believe, faith in God hones this.

  • @KadenQuinnAgain
    @KadenQuinnAgain 5 месяцев назад +20

    I believe what Pageau is referring to may be the “end of an era,” so to speak. The prosperity and culture that stem from the West’s victory in World War II is coming to an end.
    We’ve all kind of lived in the shadow of WWII for years and the culture that developed when soldiers came home to settle down with their wives and children.
    The nuclear family living in a nice suburban neighborhood; the kids growing up and going to college to establish a good career for themselves; encouraging their children to do the same. That image has been in the back of our minds for such a long time that we’ve taken it for granted as almost a given. While there have certainly been modifications to that vision throughout the past several decades, it was never the norm.
    People really didn’t do that (or at least do that as much) before the end of World War II in 1945. From what I remember when I was in school, the suburbs were developed for the numerous budding families of WWII vets, specifically. That fact that we started taking artists and entertainers seriously as these genuinely creative forces (at least in the White House’s purview lol) is a sign of high prosperity, both social and economic.
    I think, maybe every 100 years, we go through some big shift. World War I, the Great Depression, and the Spanish Flu. Things were bleak back then - I’m sure there were a lot of folks forecasting the end of the world in the early 20th century as well. But we made it out as an entirely different culture.
    I think that's what Pageau means when he says “the edge of something.” Things are going to cap off and out of that, something new will be born.

      But i get what you mean, the cultural win of the so called west. Rise of capitalism and so on. Or do you really think that the West was winning the war on Germany? Then it proves my point. In Reality the Soviet union won, but on the culture front the west succeeded so that this Narrative could evolve.

      Stopped listening to music altogether? That would be tough for me. I workout everyday and listen to 70s-80s hard/classic/soft rock to keep me motivated and focused on lifting. It keeps me from thinking about pain and fatigue. I tried listening to podcasts and audio books, but it just didn't work. I feel I can compartmentalize the music with working out and not let it pull me down when I'm not in the gym.

    In the Hindu Island of Bali they have a fantastic carnival of the underworld. A street parade of giant gods and devils by torchlight. Each household makes noise and sweeeps out their compound to rid their homes of evil spirits. Then stays quiet, no electricity, for three days. Then the world is resurrected and life returns.
    As a Westerner it was fantastic to live in a community of people who shared these rituals that are expressing and reveal something we all know are real.

    How did you guys not mention Marilyn Manson? He fits into several archetypes but into the John the Baptist the most. He is overtly satanic but at the core of his stories and music, he is pretty moral and even Christian. His music has called out the hypocrisy of everyone including himself. He has even prophecised the world we live in today, with his Tryptich albums, with the leaning towards 1984, celebrity worship, a society that has been drugged up with SSRIs or now semaglutide. Not to mention his use of Occult imagery and ideas like alchemy and Kabbalism. How could you not even mention him? And he has had an impact on pop culture more than Sam Smith or Harry styles will ever do, because he mostly always been counter culture where as they just blend into whatever Holy Wood demands. His lyrics resonate so strongly today with things like: The soul is so digital (Social Media) The death of one is a tragedy but the death of a million is just a statistic(How people have reduced the gravity of victims to just numbers) Victim is Chic(MeToo and cancel culture, think of Trump's sex assault allegations and Mansons himself, as well as the victim mentality thst everyone has adopted). Old fashioned fascism will take it away(Banning guns and forcing language and even a minority of the right wanting to revert gay marriage and rights). We're all stars now on the dope show. If they kill you on their TVs then you're a martyr and a lamb of G-d (George Floyd and the BLM).

      I too was noticing Winston’s difficulties adapting to this way of thinking, in fact just as I read your comment! He’s doing admirably, but I realized how fortunate (in some ways) I am, having been “blessed” with a certain neurological predisposition which makes these subjects not only appealing to me, but it’s like my life’s blood. As such, I’ve been actively studying archetypes, philosophy and symbolism, as well as ufos, sacred geometry and lost civilizations for decades. Like I said, it’s in my blood. So I guess I take it for granted, and I actually enjoyed watching Winston “grapple” with shifting his paradigm. Cheers!

    Pageau repeatedly points out that we live in an upside down kind of world, but when he mentions transgression and rebellion he seems like he doesn't make the obvious connection that a lot of those things he calls transgressive are common and accepted -- that the real transgression today is reaching in the past.
    The way I usually put it is that you cannot rage against the machine when you are the machine. It's a pretense of rebellion that you are having if you already have the power in your hands. If you truly want to rebel today, read Aristotle or Marcus Aurelius; find someone with whom you can build a family and marry them; and show some gratitude for the institutions we have in the western world and the way it brought billions of people out of poverty as they spread in the last century. Now, that is transgressive -- and you can tell because people will find you odd.

      ​​@@josflorida5346My first metal concert was Living Sacrifice THP and Project 86 DBL so I think 2000. It was awesome. I prefer Inhabit and Nonexistent for LS but Reborn and THP are great metalcore albums IMO. Zao is one of the first metalcore bands. I had all their albums up to TFIWKUH at one point. 90s metalcore was different than the cookie cutter scene in the mid 00s as bands had their own distinct sound and had more of a metal than a core edge. Regretfully I've never seen Zao live. I did get to see Stretch Armstrong in 04 with SOIA, Madball, Agnostic Front and Hatebreed. I'd say that was in the top 3 shows of my life. I also saw P.O.D. in 06 during the Warriors EP 2 tour with my sister. August Burns Red makes consistently great metalcore. Solid State Records had lots of hits. I had a large collection of their releases but gave most of them away to a friend at one point. Death metal is much better than metalcore. I'd recommend checking out Mortification, Crimson Thorn, Soul Embraced, Extol, Becoming the Archetype, Pantokrator, Tourniquet, HolyName and Hesychast. While not a Christian band, Job For a Cowboy has two excellent death metal albums with Genesis and Ruination with themes you would find in much of Christian metal. I'd also recommend the entire catalogue of the legendary Death fronted by Chuck Schuldiner. Not one mediocre song or album. All classics.

    I haven't made it all the way through this vid yet, but I'm curious what Jonathan would have to say about a genuine Satanic musical act that isn't using the devil as some sort of symbolism or metaphor, or as some sort of Carnival-like purging. I myself am a Theistic Gnostic Satanist, and have found myself having to explain one point he made to the common person. That being that most of these pop acts that have adopted the image of Satan lately are just playing dress up and playing of Western Christian ideas of the devil for the sake of shock and controversy as a form of publicity. There is, however, a Black Metal band from Sweden who's whole existence and output is meant to serve as a nexion for Lucifer. Their name is Watain, and their concerts are indeed an extended Satanic liminal zone ritual, and the stage becomes a consecrated ritual chamber/staging area. I really enjoyed this discussion, and was impressed with him approaching this subject from a standpoint of knowledge and research instead of religious dogma and paranoia. I would really would like to here what he would have to say about just this one band.
