Release Notes:
Pillow Fight Club propagates the radical existentialism of the
name-giving novel by Chuck Palahniuk by playing less hardball than
star-director David Fincher. Instead of womanizer Pitt and raw
fists, faustian double- X-reflexions at 120 bpm dominate as well as
a symphonic scope that reaches from unornamental postpunk to
glistening garnished musical-expression. If Meat Loaf, as casted in
Fincher's Fight Club, has been inspiration to the demothballed,
Rocky-Horror-romance might be inessential. Essential is that the
plush-version of the violent secret loge mixes the omnipresent
reductionism of the Zeitgeist-apostles with a proper quantum of
jaunty enthusiasm - an endeavour as bold as discrepant which only
succeeds marvelously because the female singing voice of the "band
of two couples" alternates between the schizoid forms of expression
of no-wave legend Kim Gordon and Cindy Lauper..s infantile
distinctive squallerism. Let's hope that this drastic analogy
towards the split personality protagonist of the quoted reading
will not end betimes with a barrel in the mouth. If the Beauvoiric
abstractions over no-wave meters among a wonderland of enchanting
outmoded kitschables, are as suitable for the process of self-
discovery as a proper fist in the face, in the end its a matter of
fitness. In a time, when the aesthetic rebellion, categorized in
neo-, pre-, post- and avant- , mainly organizes itself through the
cut of suits, pop becomes the super sub version of the status quo.
Only good, that we can also breathe the wonderful fond antics of
this musical satellite, just as the wasteful twinkle of a lonesome
disco ball in four four time.
