Mona Mur and En Esch - 120 Tage: The Fine Art of Beauty and ViolenceDark cabaret clashes with brutal industrial as two of the scene's most renowned artists create a work of seductive theatricality.
Mona Mur and En Esch have been two of the more exuberant characters in the underground music scene, carving out their own respective niches as artists on the edge, always finding ways to push the musical envelope. With 120 Tage: The Fine Art of Beauty and Violence, the two come together to create an album that is true to its title, juxtaposing sensual energies amid a brutal array of industrial soundscapes. And yet, underlying each track is a series of dark and intense melodic counterpoints that will surely put many in the mind of the era of the Weimar Republic. Indeed, the songs "Surabaya Johnny" and "Der Song von Mandelay" feature elements originally composed by Kurt Weill and Bert Brecht, two writers most closely identified with this musical style of cabaret-influenced dark pop, and the ease with which Mona Mur and En Esch translate these songs into a flurry of guttural guitars, caustic drum programming, whimsical synthesizer loops, and oppressive industrial clamor - with hints of organ and piano for good measure - without sacrificing the darkly macabre and sensuous energies of the originals is both disturbing and lovely.
