Evidence

Description

Depuis dix ans, Spike Fuck embodies more of a chaotic myth than an artist; his sporadic works are eternally suspended on the edge of the precipice, between triumph, rumors of death or madness, etc. Spike's mission is to distill the sacred and the profane, finding the balance between the melancholy and humor of life; "to be alive is to be traumatized." Fortunately, the enthusiasm for his music has endured, partly due to his unpredictable nature and inaccessibility. The content of evidence draws from new wave, glam, soul, and doo-wop, citing Pere Ubu, the New York Dolls, the Temptations, and Bettye Swan among his main influences. Melodically, it exudes the energy of a CBGBs band in full decline that takes advantage of the situation by recording a very profitable Christmas album. evidence is an album that lies beyond the limits of discourse; its goal is self-evident and goes without saying. It is what it is, and opens itself to interpretation. It is pointless to question attachments, virtue, or value. The only legitimate way to live is to be.
