"Sturm und Drang" is a German phrase that is used to describe a thematic development in the art, literature, and music of the European Romanticism movement in the late-eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Translated literally, it means "storm and stress." However, in the context of Romanticism, it refers to struggle and chaos, man against man, humans against nature, and good vs. evil. Like other features of Romanticism, it was an artistic rebellion against Enlightenment rationalism, scientific explanations for phenomena, and stymying of raw emotion. For this thread, let's find songs with titles and lyrics dealing with chaotic struggles! They can be struggles to find love (often unrequited), fights against enemies and naysayers, clashes of power and freedom, or even psychological struggles and disturbances. If you're too worn out from a long week to struggle, don't worry, VVV is always OPEN THREAD! Post anything you like from the wide rock music spectrum. If you feel like posting a little jazz fusion or prog, go right ahead! Please follow VVV's golden rules.
