Alamut is an original symphonic and multimedia spectacle by Laibach based on a famous story from eleventh-century Persia, as told by the Slovene writer Vladimir Bartol (1903 - 1967), born in Trieste, in his 1938 novel of the same title. The central character is Hassan-i Sabbāh, the charismatic religious and political leader of the Nizari Ismailis and the founder of a mysterious military formation known as the Assassins, whose name is still feared and respected today. Hassan-i Sabbāh is a self-proclaimed prophet who leads a holy war against the Seljuk Empire from his eyrie - the castle of Alamut. Alamut examined the mechanisms of propaganda at the time when Bartol, a member of Slovenian minority in Trieste, where he lived, was witnessing the rise of fascism in Italy. The motto "Nothing is true, everything is permitted" as the supreme principle of the Ismailis and the central idea of the novel, which, in the spirit of European Machiavellianism and the rise of fascism (the novel was published in 1938 and sarcastically dedicated to Benito Mussolini), is based on the denial of all doctrines and traditions, and expresses the most radical philosophical scepticism, nihilism, and cynicism. The motto is explicitly repeated several times in the novel, and is also used by Bartol as the maxim of the book. In the light of the chaotic values, the flood of contradictory information that rules the world and the destructive wars of aggression that are strangling our time, this motto has perhaps never been more relevant than today.
In Laibach’s Alamut, the ideas of radical nihilism interweave with the classical Persian poetry of Omar Khayyam, the sensual verses of Mahsati Ganjavi blend with minimalist orchestral colours derived from Iranian tradition. Hassan-i Sabbāh’s propaganda mechanism are echoed in the industrial principle of the workings of the orchestra and Laibach’s unique sound.
Laibach created the project with the help of the English non-profit organisation a/political and in collaboration with Iranian composers and musicians. Individual parts of the composition were contributed by Luka Jamnik in collaboration with Idin Samimi Mofakham and Nima Atrkar Rowshan. The historic symphony had its world premiere on 5 and 6 September 2022 in the Križanke Auditorium at the Ljubljana Festival.

Laibach the time machine. They grew and developed above and ahead from the others. Pure perfection of music and art on highest level possible.They deliver quality music for so many years staying unique and sublime in all what they do. They reached the hights and dephts of the impossible, where no one can go and no one even competes. Their work will remain timeless forever.

The lead singer is now like, I am thinking of project with 8bit graphics of some coastline and hotels, some cute animals, dolphins and castles, grass. Music wise - same thing trumpets but add underground bass sort of and synthesizers. But thats just me.

Świetna robota
I've been listening to Puscifer all day and I switched to this for my lunch break, and it works.
i think maynard and laibach have a lot in common... everything they do is so on point, whether it's done in parody or not. they both take existential crisis to the next level, and have both made startling predictions regarding the world at large... or maybe im drunk, can't tell...
It's just incredible... cacophony.
Uau
The announcement of the end.
Coś miłego dla ucha
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Эпичность движений дирижёра где-то на уровне Зевза Громовержца.
Will this be available on CD or DVD?
🙂👌🖖🍀👋
Im very confused, Alamut is the name of an ancient castle in my country, Iran! I don't know what this song about
Hope you love what ieye put for you Christina Rivas scabbia
I endured for a minute and 10 secs.
Absurdo

Grotesque

Clairvoyant as always...
Laibinsky
you spelled Fedaykin wrong .)
Laibach macht Krach. But in a good way.
Why did you put this giant banner on top, it would be most amazing frame without it :////
Какая то невъебенная заумь.
Fan de LAIBACH depuis les début : De TOMAZ HOSTNIK à NATO en passant par la période "martiale" de NOVA AKROPOLA et la période electro-kraftwerkienne grandiose de KAPITAL. Très déçu par la soupe insipide qu'on a eu à partir de VOLK (très mauvais album pour moi, que j'ai renié) et quelques autres trucs mainstreams par la suite. Heureux de voir ça. Le NSK n'est pas totalement mort.
Musique socialiste.
Sympathique.
It sounds like a very disturbing soundtrack to the recent Gaza Strip events
