It is a thoughtful, balanced exploration of how modern culture shapes the way we think, respond, and communicate.

Or been told that being obese is healthy, that there is no such thing as biological sex, or that only White people can be racist?

The Church of Stolen Sound is not a celebration of genres or a parade of famous names.
