Conspicuous Acts of Cultural Consumption

Sick of Being Sick

Many years ago I came across a copy of a CD featuring tracks from The Damned’s Peel Sessions. I’m not really sure why I bought it, beyond my habitual reflex of picking up anything that looked like it fit in a vaguely punk/Gothic style back when I was living in the Gold Coast. I’ve been playing that CD a lot today. One of the tracks, in particular, seems particularly relevant after a weekend where my cold upgraded itself and added exciting new symptoms.
