Album Notes & Community Reviews
The controversial Slovenian avant-garde collective presents a conceptual record consisting entirely of radically reinterpreted national anthems. Utilizing martial industrial beats and neoclassical choral arrangements, the group surgically deconstructs the inherent patriotism and historical violence embedded within these state songs. It is a profound, deeply cynical exercise in musical political critique.
