Geburt einer Nation (Rico Conning’s Inner Ear RMX 2024), taken from Laibach’s ’Opus Dei Revisited’, the reworked 1987 ’Opus Dei’ album. Out on 13th December on double vinyl and double CD:
Opus Dei (translation: God’s Work) was the band’s first album for Mute, garnering acclaim and throwing a worldwide spotlight on the unique Slovenian collective. Opus Dei Revisited presents two distinct new versions of the work, allowing the band to challenge perceptions and expectations, in keeping with the original where they reimagined Opus’ ‘Live Is Life’ (as ‘Opus Dei’) and Queen’s ‘One Vision’ (‘Geburt einer Nation’), two key highlights of the album.
The first disc of the Double LP / CD is a reworking by Laibach themselves which was initially crafted, and then refined, for their current Opus Dei Revisited Tour. For the second disc they invited Rico Conning (Wire, Pere Ubu, Swans, Front 242, William Orbit), who produced and mixed the 1987 version, to also Revisit the material. Conning was given an open brief to explore new territories with what was on the original master tapes. The results emphasise and eviscerate in equal measure, bringing wide ranging new perspectives and a strident aural attitude. Whilst many expected elements of the artistic masterpiece remain, they sit in exciting new landscapes and frames, which are anything but expected.
