جنگ، خودِ حقیقت است (war is the unveiling of the truth)
War is the unveiling of the truth
In war, curtains lift and truth appears as it is
In war, truth cannot be remedied

Born out of a single day-long improvisation session, EPDEMO captures that lightning-bolt electric charge of the trio’s fortuitous encounter. With Kutin on self-devised light-feedback noise machines coupled with an array of synths and König’s percussion-electronics manipulations as rhythm section to Brandhi’s feral vocalisations, PFL are an unorthodox band, right at the edge of pop-punk, noise and free improvisation.
Kutin’s editing of the material emphasises the group’s inherent musicality on tracks like brutalist-pop opener “Play... more
