The first 3 VU albums invented everything that I love about alternative rock

Listen to this. Two guys mumbling over simple guitar work. Two other ghost like voices come in on what could be described as the chorus. If I had the lyrics it might make a story but I don't so who knows what is going on. Near the end it gets a lot stranger and the music stops. Both voices gradually sing in unison near the end and the music stops for a while but almost immediately building back up. The whole atmosphere of this song is light snow falling on smoldering bricks and garbage. You can listen to it here:

This isn't even attempting to be a song. Yet that is what intrigues me so much about it. It's... very different. It gives me a certain desire to see different things like it in the future. Whatever the hell it is supposed to be I want things like it to take over. To leech into the roots of the world of rock. Take people by surprise.

Is this song a reason to be hopeful for the future?
