The Slovenian group 'Laibach' presents its fine art paintings and unique music in this examination of the culture from which they sprang forth. Laibach offer a new sound to several classics from The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Among the 17 renditions included in the film are `Across the Universe' `Sympathy for the Devil' `Kinderreich' `Fiat' and `The Great Seal'. The documentary is followed by the groundbreaking Occupied Europe NATO Tour 1994-1995 concert containing documentar
""I think... the message that Laibach can bring to America is... there is a difference between pride and nationality and prejudice and there's a difference between preparing and outright paranoia. I think that's something that in America Americans are getting very confused between the difference right now... And... it's a really... it's... very scary over here. We're very afraid of what may happen... next."" (Visitor at the Laibach concert). Laibach conducted its first tour of North America in 1989 two years before the disintegration of its mother country Yugoslavia. It was called ""Sympathy for the Devil Tour"". The following two extensive tours happened in 1992 and in 1997. Then came the attack on WTC the avenging wars on Afghanistan and Iraq and the universal offensive against terrorism events which radically marked the new millennium - but also tightened the doors to the USA for many foreigners. Despite that in election year 2004 in a tensely divided atmosphere between President Bush and Democratic candidate Kerry Laibach successfully slipped again into the country to carry out their latest 15-concert North American tour. The first stop was in Washington D.C. only a gunshot from the White House and only one day after the election results had been announced. In the air was a feeling of uneasiness dark clouds covered the sky and rain fell all day ... This film is a unique document of the Laibach tour set during the traumatic post-election atmosphere in the USA a country deeply divided by two opposite political and cultural poles. The tour has been therefore named ""The Divided States of America Tour"".
The Laibach VOLK DVD marks the end of the extensive tour based on their acclaimed album VOLK a collection of interpretations of national anthems and includes the national anthem for NSK the State in time without territory and national boundaries which Laibach have been linked with since its formation in 1992. Laibach are uncovering a common ground linking the nations a shared patriotic sentiment based around the bloody and violent foundations of nation which here can be heard in the lyrics and pomp of the largely hymnal tracks. By reinterpreting the music and translating the lyrics of each anthem the band have not only shown us this common ground they have also offered up a very pertinent comment on todays political situation and a warning for future generations.
