So the NOMACs are spreading the Empire's music and Arhys doesn't like that.
I believe this album is a macrocosm of your typical Dream Theater fan, especially of the special sort you run across on YouTube.
The Empire is spreading the word that their music is the most superior art form in all the land, and restricting other musical acts from performing, while the Rebels are like: "I don't get it."
Then, the Empire sends out these abrasive, intellectually impaired NOMAC things to accost the rebels with diatribe such as "LOOK HOW SUPER TECHNICAL THIS MUSIC IS! IF YOU DONT GET IT, YOU MUST BE IMMATURE OR UNINTELLIGENT!"
Not all of the NOMACS are this aggressive though, no sir. When the Rebels say, "I appreciate the talent involved, but it's not for me", these special NOMACS continually spam the rebels with links that according to them, "you'll surely love this one!"
But within the Empire, there is a man without a face that does not share the Empire's fascist ideologies. To him, their music is one of the greatest of it's kind, but not liking it is in no way a sign of mental deficiency - music is entirely subjective to the listener.
This hero will eventually bring the two warring nations together and teach the two to respect each other's personal preferences, or some gay shit like that.
