Laibach
Perspektive
Laibach takes over an organisational system of work, after the model of Industrial production and totalitarism, collective spirit
Identification with ideology, which means:

Not the individual, but The Organisation speaks

Our work is industrial,
Our language political.

Laibach is a recognition of time universality. Its organisational activity is an intense agitation and a constant systematic propagating Ideological offensive

Any social activity affects the mass
Laibachfunctions as a creative illusion of strict institutionality (identification with the institution)

As stock theatre of popular culture with a centralized programme
(One transmitter and a multitude of receivers) and with a communication through uncommunication. Laibach's musical approach is a move to the area of
Pure politicization of sound as a means of manipulating the masses

When, in politically and economically complicated situations, the antagonism In society is becoming strained, only force remains as the ultima ratio of social Integration. The force must adopt the form of systematic, physical and Psychic terror (organized in accordance with social relations). Terror is obtaining a function of productional power, which extorts discipline and an adaptation of the mass to the existing productional relations, and the existing productional apparatus. For the totalitarian form of government
The systematic terror becomes a constitutional instrument of authority

Through the mystic, erotic-mythological sound, constitution
Of an ambivalence between fear and fascination (which rudimentarily affects the consciousness of people) through stage performances of ritualized demonstration of political power, and through other manipulative means of an individual, Laibach practices a sound force, in a form of systematic, psycho-physical terror as social organisational principle
In order to effectively discipline and raise a feeling of
Total adherence bond of a certain (revolted and alienated) audience which results in a state of collective aphasia, which is the principle of social organisation

In this sense, the function of Laibach sound
Constructions, and of rock concerts is to challenge collective emotions and automatic associations, and as such it serves as the means of working stimulation
By darkening the consumer's mind, it drives him Into a state of humble contrition and total obedience, self-sacrifice
By destroying every trait of individuality, it melts the individuals
Into a mass, and mass into a humble, collective body

The dualism of Laibach's message, perception and receiver's structure uncovers the social neurosis

Laibach unites the fighters and antagonists into an
Expression of static, totalitarism cry

Our basic inspiration: ideals which are not ideals to their form- but the material of Laibach's manipulations itself- remains an industrial production

Art of the Third Reich, Totalitarism, Taylorism, Bruitism, Disco..

Disco rhythm, as a regular repetition, is the purest, the most radical form of the Militantly organised rhythmicity of technicist production- and as such the most appropriate means of media manipulation

As an archetypal structural basis of the collective unconscious in a worker mass, it stimulates automatic mechanism, and shapes industrialisation of consciousness- which is necessary in the logic of massive, totalitarian, industrial production
