Baxter Lilly - 'Unsichtbare Flecken'

About the most memorable thing about this album is the juxtaposition of two almost diametrically opposed moods: on the one hand, you have the naked, searing aggression of digital hardcore tearing its way through your synapses, whilst on the other you are faced with excerpts from vaudevillian carnival soundtracks, evoking buried childhood memories... Which are subsequently flayed alive by the sheer violence of Fleur Feijen's vocal anguish. This is, technically, the biggest drawback Baxter Lilly face: as in most male/female vocal pairings, one always dominates the other, making the subordinate almost redundant. A pity, as the deep, masculine growls add an extra dimension that could be exploited further.
Overall, it isn't easy listening: as described above, the music carries an unsettling quality reminding us that people who miss being young were never really children, subject to the irrational, but very real, terrors of childhood. As a result, it is difficult to entirely immerse yourself in "Unsichtbare Flecken" - but a more superficial relationship with this album, based more on its delivery of hard, distorted, dance beats than actual intellectual content, is easily formed.
That said, taking the time to confront one's fears and actually settle down with "Unsichtbare Flecken" does have its rewards. Rather than the immediate association of evil incarnate, manifested as sewer-dwelling clowns, the overall mood of Baxter Lilly's music is one of celebration - dark, antisocial and rebellious, admittedly, but for the most part, positive. This is a distillation of discontent and angst translated into music, making for a cathartic experience for both performers and audience alike.
So, despite initial misgivings, Baxter Lilly tends to ingratiate itself with repeated listening, eventually becoming a welcome change of pace. Sadly, in today's disposal society, even in the underground fringes thereof, your average consumer may not be willing to devote the required time and effort to the album to discover its finer points.

Audiotrauma nous revient avec un projet plus proche de CHRYSALIDE cette fois et ce n’est pas pour me déplaire moi et les dancefloors de la nouvelle Europe, car ça arrache sévère. PUNISH YOURSELF et AMBASSADOR 21 ont enfin trouvé a qui parler et demander des comptes.
Cette fois ci c’est de Belgique que nous arrive la rage et l’ouragan electro/punk/crossover, une combinaison destroy et jouissive de beat electro core, de guitare et de synthés destroy qui vont pulser partout ou vous presserez le bouton play.

Niveau chant ça braille un peu a la TAMTRUM, une voix féminine à la PZYCHO BITCH vient équilibrer et agrémenter le tout, j’avoue que je ne sais pas si j’aimerais autant sans la voix de la donzelle.Mais là c’est parfait ça fonctionne, ça donne un grain de folie, et je ne dis pas ça pour tous les break musette / comptines qui collent parfaitement avec le délire. Depuis les garçons bouchers on avait pas fait mieux.

Quoi dire d’autre pour ce premier coup parfait ? Si ce n’est que de vous recommander absolument l’acquisition de ce disque pleins de fraîcheurs et de bonne vibes ?

Baxter Lilly
an interview with Laurent [[[F.K.L]]] and Fleur Feijen


Baxter Lilly

Hailing from Brussels, the three protagonists of this electro-industrial carnival aim to take listeners on a noisy trip to a deranged industrial funfair inhabited by psychotic clowns. Thanks to them, the greatest show on Earth has just reached a new level of derangement with the release of their debut album "Unsichtbare Flecken" on the French label Audiotrauma.

1 - I always start with the same question: let's put a genre on what you make, how would you define your music?

It is a music that combines tales for quirky children, melancholic melodies as well as heavy and powerful rhythms with apocalyptic, screeching and furious voices.

2 - Why are you called Baxter Lilly? What does it mean?

The name itself doesn't mean anything. The story behind it is that we were offered a gig before we found a name. We were left with very little time to find one. After a couple of sleepless nights searching, we came up with this name. We like it, it is not frozen in time, people can easily make it theirs and it leaves space for one's imagination.

3 - Would you agree with me if I describe your music as 'off kilter/unconventional'?

Of course not! Many people know that... Normality is what is unconventional.

We speak of the norm but I should point out that we speak well of most people who make it as a whole. That is where you'll find most of the notorious 'out of step' people making and creating 'out of step' things against our dear code of ethics. Many people like it. As for us, we just do it a bit louder.

Baxter Lilly

4 - Laurent, you are more known in Brussels under the F.K.L. nickname. Can you tell us a bit more about this project as well as the label Boumcrash?

About F.K.L.:

Boumcrash is a label which began in 2003 and is now on its second release, Baxter Lilly. The first one is a compilation of alternative artists of Brussels such as Melodik Pinpon, F.K.L., Pi.ro, Pavell Nikof, Pneumatik Head Compressor. Yan Francescangeli and Elzo Durt made the artwork, a poster/cover of 63 x 63 cm, you've got to get it (collector's item!). Boumcrash also promotes parties in Brussels oriented towards distorted, convulsive and danceable rhythms. The overall theme is the exhibition of monsters with curious spirits. Welcome to the Freaxshow (and find more info on www.myspace.com/boumcrash)!

5 - Can you tell us a bit more about the alternative elektro scene from Brussels? Were you involved in it before you started Baxter Lilly?

Brussels is a curious, open and welcoming scene; as a matter of principle, politics and music do not mix up. Partying is neither a war nor a demand. It's just "Listen to the music and have fun - if you don't like it, go home".

However, things are changing. Many (alternative) venues are closing down. This is something to keep an eye on and possibly stand up to, as international artists have always loved Brussels because of its hearty welcome as well as the warm audience responses.

6 - Fleur, you use several languages when you sing. Which ones and why?

I mainly use German firstly because it is my native language, also because of its links with history and because I like it... and it is tortuous. Besides, the German language has never been frozen unlike French (by the French Academy). One word has lots of different meanings.

7 - Can you tell us more about the lyrics of "Unsichtbare Flecken"? What are the themes?

The themes I use are usually very heavy or fall on the religionabsurd... Incest, war and consumption.

Baxter Lilly

8 - How did you meet Audiotrauma? Why did you sign with them?

We've met on the Internet ("Generation Screen"...). Trust and common interests lead to a disc project. This happened at the right time for us as its release is happening at the same time as our vinyl releases and opens wide new possibilities for us. Audiotrauma immediately came across to us as an honest, moral and active label.

9 - What will the future hold for BAXTER LILLY?

Sleep, music, sleep.

10 - If one word could define your project, what would it be? You can give one answer each.

"Neurasthenia".

Interview BAXTER LILLY par Syco

 
- Je pose toujours la même première question. On va jouer au jeu des étiquettes : quelle genre  musique composez vous ?

C'est une musique aux alliages fantastiques mêlant contes pour enfants lunatiques, mélodies mélancoliques, rythmes lourds et puissants à des voix apocalyptiques, grinçantes et rageuses.

-Pourquoi vous appelez vous BAXTER LILLY ? Cela a t'il un sens ?


Ce nom n'a pas de sens a proprement dit... La proposition de concert est venu avant le nom ce qui nous a laisser peu de temps pour le trouver. Après quelques nuits blanches à chercher :) , se nom est sortit.
On l'aime bien, c'est pas un nom figé, on peut se l'approprier facilement et  il laisse de la place à l'imaginaire.


-Etes vous d'accord avec moi si je qualifie votre musique de « décalée » ?

Oh que non !!! Beaucoup de gens le savent... C'est la norme qui est décalée : )
On dit la norme mais qu'on s'entende bien, on parle bien du plus grand nombre de gens qui la constitue.
Là il y a beaucoup de décalés notoires faisant et créant des choses vraiment déplacées et à l'encontre de notre chère éthique. Ca plait à beaucoup de monde.
Nous, on fais juste un peu plus de bruit  : )


-Laurent, tu es plus connus a Bruxelles sous le pseudo de FKL…que peux tu nous dire sur ce projet ? et sur le label BOUMCRASH…

Boumcrash, c'est un label crée en 2003 qui en est a sa ça deuxième sortie, Baxter Lilly.
La première étant une compilation de protagonistes alternatifs bruxellois : Melodik Pinpon, FKL, Pi.ro, Pavell Nikof, Pneumatik Head Compressor. Avec comme graphiste : Yan Francescangeli et Elzo Durt realisant un poster/pochette sérigraphie de 63*63cm, a avoir absolument ( collector!!!)
C'est aussi une organisation de soirées bruxelloise prônant rythmes saturés, convulsifs et dansant. Avec comme thème le spectacle de monstres aux humeurs curieuses. Welcome to the FREAXSHOW. Voir www.myspace.com/boumcrash

- Parlez nous de la scène elektro alternative bruxelloise. Y participiez vous d'une manière ou d'une autre avant la création de Baxter Lilly ?


C'est une scène curieuse, accueillante et ouverte, en principe le politique et le festif ne se mélangent pas.
La fête n'est pas une guerre ni une revendication. C'est juste, Ecoute, amuse toi, pas content, rentre chez toi.
Ceci dit c'est en train de changer, beaucoup de salles (alternatives) sont en train de fermer leurs portes, affaire à suivre et à défendre car Bruxelles est toujours bien aimée des artistes étrangers tant au niveau de l'accueil que de la réponse du public

Fleur, tu utilise plusieurs langues pour t'exprimer. Lesquelles et pourquoi ?

J'utilise principalement l'Allemand tout d'abord parceque c'est ma langue maternelle,ensuite parceque je
trouve que c'est une langue impregnée de son histoire et ca me plait…puis c''est bien tortueux. En plus c'est une langue qui n'a pas ete figee comme le francais (par l'academie francaise).Un mot a donc beaucoup de signification.

Que peux tu nous dire sur les lyrics de UNSICHTBARE  FLECKEN ??? quels sont les themes  abordés ?

Les themes sont souvent tres lourds ou bien tombent dans l'absurde religieux.…inceste,guerre,consommation.

-Comment envisagez vous l'avenir de Baxter Lilly ?


Dodo, musique, dodo.

-Si un seul mot devait définir votre projet?

NEURASTHÉNIE
