PROLAPSE Live in Sofia/Threechords

When the album “Italian Flag” by the English band “Prolapse” was released back in 1997; no one expected that it would become everyone’s most listened to and favorite album.

 

The record store we worked at already had the band’s two previous albums playing, which no one had paid much attention to (Pointless Walks To Dismal Places and Backsaturday, which we later paid due attention to and which turned out to be diamonds), but when we played “Italian Flag” – oh my god, we all froze, and all the customers started asking what it was. Because in spite of everything, in spite of all the musical trends of the 90s, Prolapse managed to create something that didn't fit anywhere, their music seemed pointless, contradictory, but also extremely provocative, certainly puzzlingly original, a mix of alternative rock, post-punk aesthetics, krautrock rhythms, very sharp guitars and vocals that went incessantly in opposite directions, spinning in an endless circle, to finally collide in a cruel battle of genders, voices, ideas and moods. A decadent and anarchic continuation of The Fall, with many repetitive Sonic Youth guitars, united in an orgy of noise, in which irony, anger, urban melancholy and generational problems negotiate with nostalgia like a torrent of crumbling walls, to finally express their disgust for everything in this world that is conventional.

 

This concert is very personal for us, because one of our favorite bands is coming back with a new album to continue where it left off, with the same rebellious mood in a night that will be more like a clash of emotions and feelings that will reveal memories and create new ones.
