ALLERSEELENAlle Lust Will Ewigkeit/Traumlied Allerseelen's blue vinyl 7' (limited to 500) is dedicated to the Leni Riefenstahl, the innovative German film-maker whose achievements were overshaddowed by her Nazi associations. Both sides have an obscure mystical quality. 'Alle Lust Will Ewigkeit' features an insistent brass beat, a dragging industrial effect and female vocals, whilst the other side has whispered male vocals for night-owls. Both sides are considerably quieter and more relaxed than Allerseelen's previous productions. Allerseelen is not, of course, the only group in the gothic-industrial scene to play with Nazi or Fascist icons, imagery or references. In Simulacra And Simulation, Jean Baudrillard explains the fascination with this period as an attempt to connect with the last politically referential era. Far from representing a resurgence of Fascism, the phenomenon is only made possible by the "leukemia of history and of politics" that has followed it. Rik - 17 November 1998
