Cellophane Flag Issue 5: The Silent Record "A Protest Against Sound"

Cellophane Flag No. 5 continues with the radical provocation for which the Orphic Underground’s primo periodical is infamous for. Cellophane Flag #5 is “The Silent Record,” the long-awaited latest from those six-string Stalins: ‘Escape-ism.’ The Silent Record is the ultimate protest record. The Silent Record is the ultimate rock ‘n’ roll record. The Silent Record is “ A Protest Against Sound”; the record that announces music’s long awaited “Silent Age.”

This is a record that will prove useful. Use it to smother the sounds that betrayed you. Turn it up to 10 to combat the insidious drivel of the top-of-the-pop psy-op mind-control machine. Demolish the dumb and dead-end remnants of utterly dull and water brained bourgeois indie nonsense using the Silent Record, the most revolutionary record ever created. This record destroys sound. This machine destroys music.

This record will scorch the earth so you can begin again.
