What a night !! Friday 11 May and
the 3 big names of Fabrika records (selofan, she past away, lebanon hanover) in
the same gig and Gagarin music space
full of people.
Selofan opened the gig giving
their annual show in Athens.The duet for one more time gave a well-established
perfomance presenting their new album 'Vitrioli' and a selection of previous
albums. Oldschool ebm energy , coldwave melancholy , batcave and postpunk
sometimes retro sometimes ritual atmosphere.Joanna and Dimitris as usually manage to
perform a show full of interesting wide-ranged elements, musically,
theatrically and visually.
After Selofan , She Past Away on
stage. The Turkish duo gave another live performance for the Athenian
audience-the second in a year as their popularity in Greece is growing . Catchy
synth loops, solid drum machine and guitar and somber vocals making everyone to
dance . As i have seen them on stage two times before , I think that it was their best live performance.Those who were in this gig defininetely enjoyed the new stuff presaging
a great upcoming album.
Last on stage Lebanon Hanover. Larissa
Iceglass and William Maybelline gave another great performance built up in emotional vocals, liquid chords,
dramatic keys, and distorted digital waves where the duo recalls the sounds of
industrial and post punk of the 80's. They presented their new album 'Let Them
Be Alien' ('alien' ,'petals' , 'my favourite black cat' ) and songs from their
previous albums.
In conclusion, Fabrika festival was succesful
and the 1000+ people who enjoyed the gig were very satisfied in the end .Thank
you guys for the beautiful night and see you in the next gig :)
