Fuckhead – in concert
Hardcore Energie Pur - "Get locked up into your most secret desire"
ARGE medienkunst
Bone Machines
Fuckhead ist pure Energie. Metal Hardcore Rock. Fuckhead sind nackt, und sie zerren
der Zuhörerschaft akustisch alles vom Leib, was an Schutzmechanismen vorhanden
ist. Ihre Musik führt an eine Grenze, an der sich Industrial, Metal, moderne
E-Musik und Electronica verbinden. Fuckhead sind eine Körpermaschine von
ungeheurer Präzision und raumgreifender Wucht, die die Musik selbst zum Körper
macht, der mit dem Publikum spielt, es attackiert und aufnimmt. Nun haben sie
ihre extreme, mit Sexualität und Gewalt gleichermaßen aufgeladene Body-Music-Performance
zu einem neuen Punkt gebracht: „So it's time to concentrate on what nature
constructed you for: the ability to fructify“ – sagen sie selbst und halten
sich für peinlich aber unabdingbar notwendig. Die vier Gentlemen raten: „Get
locked up into your most secret desires“.

For over ten years now the gentlemen of fuckhead are pretending to be the future
of entertainment for the emerging century. In the recent years they have had
many occasions to prove this quite confident assertion. In its latest experiments
in nudity, fuckhead discovers the fact that over the last few centuries in many
cases, men made a bad name for themselves through disobedience, and that incivility,
confusion, stress, subversion, violence and dissipation were the results. Thus
fuckhead reminds them of their biological justification: „…until it's
too late. so it's time to concentrate on what nature constructed you for: the
ability to fructify.“ Fuckhead is embarrassing for sure, but these four
charming gentlemen understand themselves as an unavoidable necessity.
In any case, to avoid any misapprehensions:
