Rebentisch from Berlin are known for their surprises. The electronic, chansonesque dance through the metropolis life “Unter der Stadt” didn’t fade away, yet, there Mastermind Sven Rebentisch comes up with another creative output. Together with the sound-tinker Cabo De Gata he created a nightmarish, surreal audio drama, based on a short-story by Andreas Winkler.
In “Die letzten 7 Tage der Depression” (“The last seven days of depression”) the protagonist walks contrary and anyhow parallel to the christian genesis, through a banal reality, which forms itself to a destructive, blurred nightmare, because of his perception. Spoken Word, powerful lyrics and a congenial soundtrack of industrial, sound-collages and dark ambient. There is no better way to bring the experience of the main character’s destroyed inner-world right into your ear. An inner-world, which shifts more and more to the outside, rotates the experienced daily grind into a mystic reality, yes crazy, in which the listener loses himself together with the first-person narrator.
In the end of this seven days there is no redemption, no catharsis, no happy end, but a surprise. “Die letzten 7 Tage der Depression” is a dark, fascinating and disturbing work, on the cut surface of musical entertainment and ambitious literature. For fans of the earlier “Goethes Erben” music theatre, lovers of the spoken word albums by Thee Majesty (Genesis P. Orridge) and friends of David Lynch movies it is definitely a must-have.
