Pornostroika Dadaifi - Weimar Helldisco (free download)

Front WeimarHere I go repeating myself, or perhaps coming full circle, as I find myself doing a lot, not just around here. I visit with a band, focus on them, and then on to the next, while that same band continues on with life, sometime sticking to it and creating more. This is as it should be and I hope that all creators, never lose that spark. And spark indeed is what my old friends Pornostroika Dadaifi continue to do. A freaking shower of sparks as their enthusiasm is overflowing with creativity, brimming with disgust. Here's the story I got from them, "This is a release about the economic downfall of Greece,the similarities with the weimar regime and the rise of Greek facism!It is against the neoliberal totalirism,the nazis and the greek mass media.It is a mix of old industrial music with punk and electro. It is an attack on the POP TOTARILISM and as you can assume by that, Laibach and other pioneers of industrial music have a strong influence in our music and image.The release is free as everything we have released from 1999.It's our 10th album." As I said we've come full circle, and rather than repeat myself, because this is more of the same, you can check out my take on their Erotas Sta Hronia Tis Porneias release. I will say that, I don't understand a word these guys are saying, it's all Greek to me (literally), but you can tell that whatever it is, I know it's social/political, it's filthy, loathsome and repugnant. It almost pains the singer to sing/say it. Greek is a fucked place, has been for a while now, they're on the forefront of where this world is headed, so there's plenty to sing/talk about. These guys are busy with what they do, they have a MySpace and a Facebook. The also do virtual zines (they're in Greek too)... ZERO GEOGRAF 05 ZERO GEOGRAF 13 For the most part the music is kind of a techno, new wave kind of deal, but with those distasteful vocals. Here's my three favorites, I had the guys translate and give sort of summary (for some reason Wordpress is not recognizing Greek script, thus the gibberish)...

3.asshole(pop totalism) Is about a rich guy who don't care about the poverty all over him.He is too drunk with the pop culture...
