Interior design (or no-design) is the new rock’n'roll?

I believe it was Johnny Rotten who once said that the purpose of rock'n'roll is to deepen the generation gap. It's not like it use to be anymore. Rock'n'roll doesn't shock anyone. Middle aged people don't even get shocked by death metal, or violent gangsta rap. The ones who are now in their sixties grew up with the Stones and Led Zeppelin. They've seen it all, the holy trinity of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll. There's nothing so disturbing that could be used as a tool to voice generations frustration and anger. Except one thing - actual filth and dirt. Even though todays parents in their youth have spent their friday evenings hanging out in sleezy clubs listening to noise and thumping and consuming all kinds of illegal and legal products, they still want to keep their homes nice and tidy. A home needs to be in order. But look at the photo below. This decoration definitely is repulsive to the older ones! This is today's punk and grunge and whatever. Pure rebellion. You over 40, admit it, you don't want this to be your home? Just an idea of it makes you feel sick, Just like Johnny Rotten screaming ”God save the Queen, she ain't no human being” made your parents feel ill.
