This is a new song/music video by Ariel Pink that is 16 minutes long. I skipped around the song, it seemed like one of those 'epic journey' mp3s that would have been more meaningful 2 decades ago, but now it is just like 'Why doesnt this sound more like the pumped up sneakers song?' Apparently the gimmick behind this song is that it is a 'tribute 2 9-11.' Since it is the 10 year anniversary of 9-11, many artists, content farms, and news media outlets have been 'reflecting' on the tragic events.

The video seems to try to be some sort of metaphor abt consuming media, but I'm not exactly sure what the song has to do with 9-11, other than the alleged statement that he started recording this song on 9-11-01.

According 2 p4k:

Today, 4AD has released a one-off, iTunes-exclusive single for the Ariel Pink track "Witch Hunt Suite for World III". It's a sprawling, multi-part, 16-minute-plus epic that Pink began writing and recording ten years ago today, while the events of September 11, 2001 began to unfold.

I'm not sure how I feel abt this song/Ariel's strategy. He really wants me to get heavy, but we all have a very personal 9-11 story. Most of us were watching from our suburban classrooms. A lot of 'post-millenials' don't even remember 9-11. 9-11 still harshes my vibes. I sorta just want Ariel Pink to sing songs abt 'waiting 4 kate', menopause men, and 'Round and Round.' But I guess maybe he is just trying to reflect on 9-11, but I just hear his deep voice saying stuff, and I assume it is abt weird stuff. Maybe I should give it a chance.

I'm still spooked by terror. I get scared on flights. I get sorta scared whenever I travel to major cities. I just want to beat terrorism.

Is Ariel the most important artist of our time?
Is he 'exploiting' the 9-11 meme?
Did 9-11 resonate 'more' or 'less' in the national psyche bc it happened before the proliferation of social media?
What do you think abt being 10 years removed from 9-11?
Are u relieved that Obama killed Bin Laden?
Is this song Ariel Pink's 'finest work', or should it have stayed a 'b-side that only Ariel's most dedicated fans listened to in their parents' basements while smoking dank'?
