Capsule review: Club moral - Living(stone) concert (2004)


One of the more forbidding projects in Mauro's discography - he joined this early '80s electronic noise / modern art Antwerp duo upon their reactivation in the early 2000s. The concert is completely improvised - layers of distorted bleeps and noise, with passionately recited/screeched lyrics from the local newspaper - murder, celebrities, football and horoscopes. (What pop is all about!). It's a relief when they sit down for two minutes to listen to the Shirelles' 'Foolish little girl' through the floorboards, honestly.
This is what people did for fun in the '80s, before tv. The big finale is about suicide. Don't expect anyone to ask you if you're having a good time.
