Time was when Slovenian scamps Laibach made music with a stomping boot and a raised eyebrow. Now, they’re leaning so much into irony that they could go full Eurovision. I get it, the worlds going to shit.
The problem is, this campy ridiculousness has ceased to be funny. Back in the day, they were perceived as a subversive threat, alongside industrial icons Einsturzende Neubauten. But these days, it all seems too silly, like a parody. This is their Daft Punk track, methinks. Somebody stop them, please, before the Pharrell collaboration. We already have a Slovenian joke in office…
