Album sleeve of 'Youth culture' by The Sony Corporation

Youth Culture

In the late twentieth century the global corporations took an interest in the rapidly expanding youth marketplace, purchasing that which they failed to earn for themselves.

The Indignant reformed in the early nineties, renaming themselves The NY Corporation to bring alive this work of political dissatisfaction with the onset of global corporations attack upon the youth of the day.

  • Correct option: Album sleeve of "Youth culture" by The NY Corporation. The verbose response.
