"I was waiting for the communist call", or, The future anterior of music and its theory (Main Record) By: Waite, Geoffrey. Source: Literature and psychology, ISSN: 0024-4759, Vol. 44 (No.4) p27, published: United States 1998. Language: English; Abstract: A communist-theoretical reflection (drawing on Jacques Attali, Jacques Lacan, and Louis Althusser) on the future of music theory with an analysis of the Sex Pistols' Holidays in the sun (1977). The problem: what it means to defer seeing "all the way to the bottom" of "the most compressed recording" (Jon Savage) of "the greatest band of all time" (Spin magazine), sung by "the only truly terrifying singer rock 'n' roll has ever known" (Greil Marcus)--inasmuch as that deferral ignores, as all hitherto accounts have, one and only one line: "I was waiting for the communist call".
