Paralysed



Zaslepljen, paralizovan
Na pleća oboren
Kažu, svet je izgrađen na težnji
Da je svako sam za sebe
Bogatstvo je samo za one koji ga žele
Raj - ako možeš da ga priuštiš
Istorija je razlog
Oprao sam se

Zaslepljen, paralizovan
Na pleća oboren
Moje su ambicije ništavne
Moje želje gubljenje vremena
Ne kapiram šta je pošlo naopako
Iako sam dobar u tome bio
Vrane se vraćaju u leglo
Nasamaren sam

Laibach Informbiro


27th of April 1985 - 35 years of Laibach’s first album release


On the 27th of April, "The Day of Uprising Against Occupation", in 1985 Laibach released its first official album. Due to the political ban on the use of the name "Laibach" from 1983-1987, the band decided to release the album without it, as well as without a title, so it was released as a "no name & no title" album. The Yugoslav censorship committee also censored the album - parts of the music (ironically - Tito’s speeches) were covered with a linear tone. 
The original songs were recorded already in 1983 at Studio Metro, Ljubljana, and the album was initially supposed to be released by the state record company ZKP RTV (under the name "The Sky is Burning"), but due to the ban the album was finally released only two years later, by the independent student label: ŠKUC - R.o.p.o.t. (Student cultural center - N.o.i.s.e.).   
In order to commemorate the release of this important first album, thirty-five years later we have decided to create a special collector's item in the form of a limited edition box set, entitled "Laibach Revisited", which you are probably already aware of. We have received some really amazing feedback and positive reviews from many of you who have already purchased the vinyl or CD box.


Upcoming special Laibach events 

Due to the New World Order Reality, many concerts, festivals, and shows have unfortunately already been cancelled and more will be cancelled in the coming weeks. We had to cancel some of them as well ourselves, but we are still planning a special Laibach concert at Ljubljana Castle on 11 September and a very special all day & all night event at the power plant in Trbovlje on 16 October. At the moment, we cannot 100% confirm any of this, but please follow our news on social media and on our website in the coming months. 

At the same time, we are also happy to inform you that Laibach is currently intensely working on interesting new projects, which will be revealed in our future newsletters. 
Stay healthy, enjoy yourself (if you can), and (hopefully) see you soon!

Family affair


Iggy Pop
Family Affair - free web CD single
released: April 21st 2020

Iggy Pop has marked his 73rd birthday (21.04.1947) by giving away a limited free download of his 1985 cover of Sly & The Family Stone's "Family Affair", which saw him teaming up with legendary bassist Bootsy Collins.


One child grows up to be
Somebody that just loves to learn
And another child grows up to be
Somebody you'd just love to burn
Mom loves the both of them
You see, it's in the blood
Both kids are good to mama
Blood's thicker than the mud

It's a family affair

Newly-wed a year ago
But you're still checkin' each other out
Hey, nobody wants to blow
Nobody wants to be left out
Uh-huh, you can't leave
'Cause your heart is there
But you can't stay
'Cause you been somewhere else
You can't cry
'Cause you look broke-down
But you cryin' anyway
'Cause you're all broke-down

It's a family affair
