Laibach
Neu Konservatiw CD
Cold Spring

Available through the Helen Scarsdale Agency: $14.00

In the early polemics of Laibach's industrial appropriation, the Slovenian ensemble sought to undermine the music industry's stranglehold on the distribution of their work by publishing 'semi-authorized' bootlegs of their live performances. Neu Konservatiw was one of these recordings dating back to their Occupied Europe Tour from 1985, and finds Laibach in militant lock-step with punishing martial rhythms and megaphone barked vocals with little else. Incredibly effective and still compelling to listen to. The six tracks include:

Vier Personen
Nova Akropola
Vade Retro Satanas
Die Liebe
Du Der Du Herausforderst
Der Staat
