3) Plattenbau - Hollywood (A Place To Bury Strangers Remix)

 

 

 New single from noise-pop Berlin, Germany band.... 

Shape / Shifting out 29/9/2021 pre-release 11/2/2022 “Hollywood” is the first single from Berlin art punks Plattenbau's upcoming album "Shape / Shifting”. Sounding like Joy Division on a dark VHS soundtrack, derailing into an explosive chorus soaked in overdrive, ‘Hollywood’“ is a song about greed and infatuation depicting man’s primal impulses to take, to extract, to possess - rather than to give and to share, but ultimately evinces the belief that this cycle can be broken. The A Place To Bury Strangers remix drives things out of that pop atmosphere, and into a whirring deep space fever dream. Choppy distorted guitars pull your focus in every direction. The song packs a totally different sonic punch and stimulates a sense of anxiety which is unmistakably from A Place To Bury Strangers’ tone arsenal. it sounds like the Plattenbau sound has been drained from the Berlin swamp and experienced a death by audio through the APTBS meat grinder, coming out in an oozing melodic fuzz, which almost has a fitting west coast twang to it.
