Texas Trip - A Carnival Of Ghosts

“You can’t wear the disguise when you look in the mirror.” Attic Ted, Virginia Black and Mother Fakhir are performing, making strange sounds, and remembering songs of a dark past, while Gretta is at home, distracting herself, hiding from reality. Zombies! Ghosts! Freaks! “Drive-in mutants, sick, disgusting, who believe in blood, in breasts and in beasts”. This generation of Americans, conceived by their parents in the back seat of a Chevy on a night out at the local drive-in, bottle-fed with images of exploitation cinema, monsters, and fear, are now fighting against social norms and a “life of feudalistic servitude”. Isolation, back to the wilderness, meet these brilliant musicians, fed up with the hypocrisy of capitalism’s melody, experimenting with their identity, with abstract ideas through the materiality of their own body and flesh, to the extreme.
