"2112", by Rush, is a concept album about a guy who finds a guitar and learns to play it in a totalitarian communist civilization in the year 2112. It ends with a rebellion wresting control of the "federation". One of my all time favorites. It was based on Anthem by Ayn Rand apparently.

The coincidences with bitcoin are pretty interesting. (Palindrome of 21, Ayn Rand, etc. Also the meta concept of music being subversive to states and even premonitions of civilisation being saved, etc. are neat)

Seems in line with the Phish podcast and may be of interest to you. Curious of your thoughts.
