Hitler on the roof - deadly concoction

Golovanov Alexey | Limassol, Cyprus | 04/27/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"When mixing whiskey with beer one will get a deadly, but efficient, concoction. That's what we have in Violent Acts of Beauty - perhaps a more suicidal album (and less pleasant) than "Closer" of Joy Division. The singer/poet more disgusted by the life around him than all punk bands put together - and far more articulated, talented, vitriolic, venomous etc... Music? Mind-boggling, hypnotising, manic self-repeating chanting. Shouldn't be underestimated - "America..." just starts with primitive tribal shamanism, but soon the singer and the band explodes in a Wall of Sound. The whole concept is a bitter paraphrase of totalitarian art - very much in the spirit of "Laibachkunst". The philosophy is not romantic anarchism of 1968 - it's cynical nihilism of today. Artwork - is an achievement on its own, woth more than any exhibition of "urban art". Not an easy listening, not eager to please, but TALENTED! I keep on listening to it as a medication against an overdose of MTV"
