What happened to the good old sound of the early 80s, when
artists like FAD GADGET and GARY NUMAN understood working with
electronics as one giant wild and anarchistic playground?
Unfortunately, FAD GADGET is now dead and master Numan is
sporting a more dark industrial sound these days. Hence we are
in dire need of fresh blood for this kind of music! And who
would be better suited to fit the role than Don Goldmann and
Sancho Schirner who have been riding against the windmills of
the establishment with their orphaned church organ Lola and the
most eccentric electro-pop vision of all time for quite some
time now? On their new album "Viva La Lola", the mad duo (now
minus a horde of brawly ballerinas but joined by a live band) is
taking the next step towards world domination by reinvigorating
the spirit of the aforementioned pioneers of the early 80s and
unleashing the wildest electronic funfair sound in years onto
their unsuspecting public.
"Viva La Lola" is anti-pop of the most subversive kind,
gloriously full of unpredictable melodic twists from warbling
analogue contraptions riding high on stomping beats plus a
healthy dose of frenetic and fresh vocal escapades. LOLA ANGST
do not give a damn about convention and enliven their rather
dancefloor compatible sound with lots of little atonal
peculiarities and sonic experiments. Furthermore, fans of the
80s will probably get quite some kicks out of trying to figure
out all the little quotes from and references to popular songs
from this era. The hit potential of this creative rollercoaster
ride might not reveal itself immediately to everyone, but when
the songs hit you, they will stay with you for a long time. And
it takes guts to give the catchiest song on the album a
provocative title like "Blood and Honour" only to verbally kick
the rear ends of anyone who might be attracted to such a phrase
in the lyrics.
As a special bonus, the first edition of the album will contain
the bonus disc "Live in Germania" which gives a pretty good
impression of the sonic madness that LOLA ANGST unleash on
stage. Cynical anarchy-pop from the electronic laboratory...
The pioneers from the days of yore could not have done it
better!
