- A dystopic future. The love between two working drones ignites the courage among the people to revolt against the system built on oppression and police violence.-
Gudrun von Laxenburg, an experimental three-piece electronic band from Austria, just signed their debut album, Panic!, with Skint BMG. Off that record, “Revolution” hits like a flurry of electronic elements not unlike those of EOTO and similar technologically advanced jam bands.
Alongside the single comes a music video representative of that dystopian storyline, complete with cloaked figures, barking dogs, and expressionless civilians on a mission to unhinge and depose their oppressors. On the song, GVL reveal that it was a message for the current state of police affairs around the world. “Irrational police brutality and ruthless leadership is everywhere around us,” they write. “At the time we wrote the track ‘Revolution’, the media was full of it all around the globe.”
“What we had in mind when we started working on ‘Revolution’ was to tell a story of change,” the director, Sebastian Mayr, elaborates on the concept. “A single person’s decision sets a chain reaction of events in motion which eventually ignites some sort of turnover,” “Not only do the protagonists unintentionally start a revolution because their actions are driven by love… they are also cyborgs – theoretically incapable of experiencing emotions.”
