We're just stunned into silence. The JC Superstar pics take me back to church basements of my youth. - M.Jean 3-08-2009 8:54 pm
The cheesy Jesus illustrations work well with Laibach. Could have used more images from Watchtower magazine.
On the other hand Greygue's I Dig a PONyee video is totally perfect.

Laibach videos that are not fan videos are, if you can believe it, more disturbing (confounding) than fan videos. Being the WASPy North American girl that I am, I have a hard time getting my head around Laibach. One of the things I'm trying to figure out is their relationship to NK (New Collectivism), who made such a stir in 1987 when they copied a Nazi poster, replaced the Nazi symbols with socialist symbols and submitted it to the poster competition for Yugoslav Youth Day (Tito's birthday) ... and won first prize. heh.

Those psychedelic horse head radiations may have to be a GIF. - tom moody 3-09-2009 1:54 pm

I saw Laibach play in the early nineties .. I was living in eastern europe at the time and my brother recommended them, so I thought, 'hell, ya, I'll go'. It was mystifying. I am not sure to this day if they are kitsch, ironic, serious, politically extremist, ethnic nationalist... or not? .. or poking fun at all of the above? Or not? One thing for sure: they do an awesome rendition of "life is life". But are they icky Nazis?
These videos are tremendous. Love the post. Think it works really nicely with last week's nick cave videos.
Sunday - Laibach
Jesus Christ Superstar
I Dig a PONyee - A neglected classic expressionist film short.
