The Zoetrope soundtrack album by Lustmord, initially released in 2002, serves as the haunting auditory companion to Charlie Deaux’s 1999 experimental short film of the same name. Reissued in an expanded and revised form in 2010, Lustmord takes us deeper into the dystopian world of the film. The album is a slow, meditative journey through layers of deep drones, unsettling textures, and subtle industrial noises, evoking feelings of claustrophobia and existential dread. Each track seamlessly blends into the next, creating a cohesive and hypnotic experience that mirrors the film’s themes of psychological disintegration and confinement. Not an easy listen by any means, as the compositions are spattered with chaotic “events”, crashes, jolts, that are jarring without the visual context of the film itself.
2010 Netherlands pressing from Burning World Records.
