Hey All,

There is a fun, short article by Stuart Hanscomb in the current edition of Philosophy Now, "Existentialism as Punk Philosophy".
https://philosophynow.org/issues/115/Existentialism_as_Punk_Philosophy

Whether or not you'd agree, his statement "Hegel was the Prog Rock of philosophy" had me chuckling and wondering... 

If you were building this analogy, what genres of music and philosophy would you combine? Personally, I wonder if the 'angst' of existentialism would align it better with gothic or darkwave music? But, importantly, what would you align with the MOQ? (I'm leaning towards 'post-punk'.)
