My Enjoyment Of The Music Group MGMT Sparks My Quest For The Origins Of The Term 'Hipster'?! (man that is long title :-)

One might ask "Why the term, hipster?" then think what 'exactly' does that mean? You may be considered affiliated with said 'social group' without knowing it...nonetheless, the link below connects with an outstanding musical group called MGMT.

Listen for yourself I will not 'categorize' the sound (a bad habit of mine I am trying to break or reduce the tendency) ~

This is the article about the new MGMT album &

go here to hear their sound http://www.myspace.com/mgmt (go here to get a free remix of a previous MGMT album by Leeclaybang aka Brother Dvooa (click here) (scroll down to his downloads ~ www.afrispora.com/brotherdvooa.com)

I like the group a lot but the article started OFF with the 'loaded' term hipster, which I state as such for some simple reasons. 1. Why are folks always grouped...I am all for collectivity in the real world but not simply terminolgy...

Someone please enlighten me, enjoy the music and take care.
