And new Constructivists jump Into the white beyond I have breached The Blue Lampshade At one stage a second, follow me The form of a square Clear out And they found novels, colours, paintings, and imagining themselves Have forgotten irreconcilable war Loses its poems, posters, slogans The blue of the sky's been breached A path lies across space

about

Blue Lampshade, the first single from NOVYI LEF's upcoming EP, Ethic Or Aesthetic, launches straight into their trademark synth-laden, political electroclash. With lyrics borrowed from Russian art manifestos – cut up and reassembled in random order – the feelings of optimism and utopianism of these documents, a century on from their conception, once again become a rallying cry for a new future. Backed by a dizzying array of synthesiser hardware, and sounding somewhere between New Order and Le Tigre, Blue Lampshade offers a tantalising taste of what's in store.
