Free Music Review: One of the very few Consistent, Ever Changing Artists to Exist
Hit: 5 Stars
Another amazing piece of brilliance by legendary "industrial" fore fathers Laibach out of Slovania. Already famous for their renditions of songs by Queen, The Rolling Stones as well as others which should not over shadow their brilliant original thought provoking works such as WAT, Opus Dei and more recently Volk they now bring forth Kunst Der Fuge which is an entire rendition of an unfinished work by Johann Sebastian Bach written in around the 1700's. But do not expect hard edged dance versions as they did with their other covered work. No, this is an actual classical composition done entirely with computers, synthesizers and sequencers! And the result...like anything else they produce....sheer brilliance. It is quite relaxing. Compare it to an actual orchestra version and you will be amazed. However, for those who may not know much about Laibach this is not their first venture in to the classical world as they had done scores for Macbeth and a ballet called Krst Pod Triglavom-Baptism. That was quite some time ago and why I find this brilliant because the "industrial" scene is so pathetic now a days you may as well say it is dead. The newer generation of musicians out there are either copying the old or if it is original it is neither saying anything or is just repetitive nonsense and here instead of rehashing some old album to appease a certain type of fan they throw you for a loop and do something like this. They are one of the very, very few bands out there (although this is just one member) that with each new release will present something new and refreshing. Even if you do not like a release you can at least say it is different. And all of their merch and dvd products are of the highest quality. For me, I love everything they have produced. Their live shows still after 25+ years are extraordinary and still leaves me with chills. I saw them twice this year (2008) in both Los Angeles and New York and it was nothing short of breath taking. One of the only...if not only band out there in this genre that is staying consistent. Can't wait to see what's next!!!
Kunst Der Fuge Poster
2008 studio release from the legendary Slovenian industrial band. Kunst Der Fuge is the Laibachian interpretation of Johann Sebastian Bach's work The Art of Fugue (Die Kunst der Fuge). The majority of the material was created in 2006 and premiered the same year live at Bachfest in Leipzig. This groundbreaking album sounds unlike anything in today's Electro-Industrial world. As Bach did not specify instruments for the composition, Laibach used solely computers and sequencers to achieve the end result. Dallas Records.Alternative Rock Music CDs
