The phantasmagorical debut album by Tropical Fuck Storm, A Laughing Demise in Meatspace, provides a fraught eyesight of algorhythmic apocalypse. Showcasing Gareth Liddiard and Fiona Kitchin from Australian heroes The Drones, Tropical Fuck Storm is an end-of-times consciousness-stream across nine seething tracks. The debut dive-bombs into the realms of mortality and immortality, moralizing and amorality the passing of time, and how small we have left. These are lurid songs, urgently informed through Gareth Liddiard’s barbed and byzantine lyricism, abrasive guitar slashes, drum adrenalin, raunchy bass and electronic undercurrents. They are raging, rapscallion, and amusing, lyrically delving into almost everything from online shaming to the kuru “laughing death” sickness of the PNG highlands to Russian chess terrific Gary Kasparov’s portentous decline to an IBM pc. Dwell, Tropical Fuck Storm are a power of mother nature, conjuring chaos at each and every blistering performance, with zero shits to give for corporate new music hegemony. “Kneel down by the promoting, do not you make a solitary wrong go” calls out the feminine chorus of Fiona Kitschin and Erica Dunn echoing the dismay of our time as we bear witness to the sinister seductions which social media surveillance has entangled us. A Laughing Death in Meatspace does not show us the way out of this scenario, but it howls alongside with us as we peer into the maelstrom forward.
