Catharsis Is An Anarchist Collective Bent On The Total Liberation Of Ourselves And Our World Through Creative Self-Expression And Self-Determination The Annihilation Of Capitalism Hiearchy Morality Ideology And Human Misery In All Its Other Forms And--Above All--The Transformation Of Life Into A Joyous Carefree Game To Be Played For The Highest Of Stakes. We Release All Our Music Ourselves And Distribute It Exclusively Through A Network Of Friends And Colleages. We Organize All Our Performances Ourselves Or Through Friends Working To Establish A Cooperative Network Of Autonomous Individuals Rather Than Relying On And Thus Reinforcing The Chains Of Corporate Control That Presently Constrict The Arts In Particular And Modern Human Relations In General. We Refuse To Compromise With These Assembled Forces Of Selfishness Apathy And Violence And Insist That Every Day Of Our Lives Be An Adventure Unfettered By External Controls Or Internal Inhibitions. So Can You. We Struggle For A Day When Art Will No Longer Be Just Another Commodity To Be Exchanged For Other Sterile Consumer Goods When Both The Means Of Production An All The Products Therof Will Be Shared Openly So That Everyone Will Be Free To Be An Artist And Live Based On The Pursuit Of Desire Rather Than Ever-Increasing Standards Of Mere Survival. In The Meantime We Do What We Can To Lead Lives Outside This Merciless System Of Domination And Exploitation As We Plot Its Downfall And Hold In Revolted Disdain All Those Who Apparently Believe It Is Enough Just To Sell Things And Go Through The Motions Of Traditions Long Dead And Dry And Thus Hostile To All Living Things . Real Life Involves More Than A Beating Heart And A Functioning Liver Of Course. It Is Something That Must Be Chosen Chased Created By Those Who Would Find It. Yes We Are Idealists Hopless Romantics Both Hopless And Romantic But This Idealism Enables Us To Act While Others Are Paralyzed By Their Dispair By "realism" And Jaded Cynicism. We Think We Do Better To Cast Our Lot With The Quixotic Madmen The Poets Of Revolution And Absurdity Whatever The Odds Of Success Or Survival May Be. This Is A Statement Of Purpose And All Such Statements Oversimplify As Do Declarations And Expressions Of Every Kind But The Important Thing Is To Speak To Act To Do Something And Let The Consequences Sort Themselves Out. So If We Live Let's Live To Tread On Kings To Break Our Bodies And Our Hearts To Keep Ahead Of Death To Dance Right Through Our Lives. Www.Myspace.Com/catharsiscrimethinc read less
