This is why the rising popularity and true return of art rock is so important. It implies that people are willing to be challenged and willing to consider greater aspects of art and life rather than what is simply displayed to them or shoved down their throats by television and media, half the adventure of a new idea is in the discovery afterall. As more of these artists are pushed into public view with their viewpoints and questions being heard, more people are going to begin the jounrey of exploring new and old ideas. It is this jounrey with the idea of bringing art, music, and philosophy together that are the exact principles art rock was based on.
The average person is not stupid. Within them every person has a philosopher who wants to understand different ideas and viewpoints about the world and to really be challenged about what they believe and why. Because if you can’t defend what you believe, why would you believe it in the first place?
