  When Trisha Low moves West, her journey is motivated by the need to arrive “somewhere better” — someplace utopian, like revolution; or safe, like home; or even clarifying, like identity. Instead, she faces the end of her relationships, a family whose values she has difficulty sharing, and America’s casual racism, sexism, and homophobia. In this book-length essay, the problem of how to account for one’s life comes to the fore — sliding unpredictably between memory, speculation, self-criticism, and art criticism, Low seeks answers that she knows she won’t find. Attempting to reconcile her desires with her radical politics, she asks: do our quests to fulfill our deepest wishes propel us forward, or keep us trapped in the rubble of our deteriorating world?

  In the past eight-years, the face of popular culture has changed radically and with it, the music that will define the decade.  Gone are the pop saturated songs of the 70's and 80's.  Today's sound is a fusion of grunge, hip-hop, metal, hardcore and funk.  Disparate sounds that together create something thoroughly modern and unlike anything we've heard before.  No band embodies this musical melting pot more than Korn.  With their frantic, no-holds-barred image and sound, Korn has jumped musical boundaries to be both Billboard chart toppers and a band with a loyal, obsessive following.  --Their debut album, "Korn"  went platinum and has sold millions--"Life is Peachy" debuted at number three on the Billboard charts--Korn's latest album, "Follow the Leader" has sold over two million copies and remained on the Billboard charts for over twenty-eight weeks.  Elina Furman's in-depth look at the band's meager beginings to their breakthrough success with "Follow the Leader," their current multi-platinum album is a fan's ultimate guide.
