Six children, raving around on stage, wearing black whole-body silk suits, army boots and masks, which seem partly cruel, partly joyful. The drummer, Zolo Babel, produces ear-splitting ten-minute-long rhythms on scrap-metal and iron, which the kids jump, fall, rock and wrestle to, a ritual, which ends in laceration. |
