Remember that one scene in "Blow Up", Michelangelo Antonioni's cult movie from the 60ies? The photographer Thomas (alias David Hemmings) staggers into a Yardbirds concert, where an utterly unaffected audience stares at the ecstatic band. The guitarist fights with his malfunctioning amplifier and shatters, in rage, his guitar on it. He throws the broken neck into the crowd which - suddenly animated - engages into a brawl over it. Thomas catches the piece of wood in a menacing fight and flees out of the venue. There he takes a closer look, realizes that it's practically worthless and throws it away.
An allegory to the status of rock music in the year 2008? A distorted imagery between meaning and meaningless? A mirror held into your rear view mirror, redirecting our viewline onward rather than back? And if yes, what has it to do with "Stereoface" in the first place?
