The Praise of Folly

(light and shadow, velvet and blade, the game of contrasts is about to begin. Vive la Fête's "Jour de Chance" is the sensualist revivalism of nonsensical tender bitterness. A great album, coherent in its lunatic intentions. A must.)

(Vive La Fête; Track 10 "Stupid Femme", 2007)





self-deception and madness came to this world to feed restless minds.
i have always found sense and sensibility in the most foolish acts, words, gestures and consequences of sounds.
and have always drunk (to the limits of self-indulgence) the potentially liberating power of absurdity.

folly is empowerment.
