James Lee Stanley CDA Conversation with James Lee Stanley

Mike Ragogna: James, you called your new album The Apocaloptimist. Why are you so optimistic about the Apocalypse? Why, James, why?

James Lee Stanley: Mike, thank you for the time. By way of clarification, you seem to have misconstrued my intention with the word “Apocaloptimist.”

MR: Oh, no…hate when that happens!

JLS: As it happens, I am not optimistic about an apocalypse. I seriously reject the nouveau nihilism, and the entertainment industry’s infatuation with some dystopian future. However, I am optimistic that we can overcome what is one possible future for us as a nation, a people and a world.
