A riot of 60’s psychedelia, magick, ritual and tight black leather, this programme highlights underground innovators who use and subvert pop music for their own experimental ends; and be warned, in Anger, there’s real darkness.
If life is assaulted by power, where do we find spaces for living? A conversation with Peter Pál Pelbart.
