Robert Inhuman, IS THIS BAND JUST A DEAD END?

Is this band a dead end? Does art have any function above amusement and distraction from the bleakness of daily life? Is sociopolitically-driven music completely futile and a useless headache that everyone would be better off without? Does gabber have no reasonable niche in the United States, especially after the 1990's?! These conversations go on and on, and though from time to time they can make me reconsider the effectiveness of what I've chosen to focus on through music, it always comes back to this: Remember that old Minor Threat song??

"AT LEAST I'M FUCKING TRYING!!! WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE?!"

How effective has this band been? I struggle with that question at all times. But the reason I continue and try harder / smarter however I can is cos over the years I've gotten a lot of responses and comments from people, especially teens, things like "I started my first band after I found out about you guys" or "I decided to quit drinking cos of what it said in your CD" and once in a while surprisingly "I had been planning to kill myself the past few days but have decided not to after seeing you guys." Stuff like that is what makes me think this can actually have a decent and positive affect on people, even in the smaller ways. So I want to do it better, build a better platform and use it to project a better statement. It can be really hard to keep the band together cos people flip out and quit on / off every year, but it just changes forms and things continue.
