Watch a Psychobuildings/MNDR fan video edit

December 26, 2011

Youtube user and Psychobuildings/MNDR fan, 1angelmiike, posted a great video mashup and fan edit, turning MNDR’s “DCC Train Remix” of Psychobuildings “Terror Management” into a 12-minute soundtrack for what appears to be a classic Italian slasher film… if it was directed by David Lynch.

Psychobuildings is a psychedelic construction of danceable beats, lyrical splendor, and shimmering dance performance.

The group originated with front-man Peter LaBier in 2010, a visual artist with the aim to create not just a band, but an artful experience for all the senses. LaBier joined forces with Peter Schuette (Silk Flowers) and Juan Pieczanski (Small Black) to blend dizzying layers of synth and percussion, creating the band’s upbeat-yet-dark electronic dance sound.

LaBier’s angular vocals cut through the maze, delivering lyrics rich with fragmented imagery. References flash from history to pop-culture to observations on mortality and back offering a glimpse into his twisted sonic landscape. “No Man’s Land”, explores scenes from George Orwell’s book, “Homage to Catalonia” citing both the horrors and drudgery of life on the front lines of war in a dead-pan chant: “A company man until your limbs won’t bend in the dugouts / Salvage run with the well trained mobs / Not a shrub left to hug / Not one dumb crumb that you starve for.”

Live performances artfully fuse visual, aural, and tactile elements with uniquely designed outfits and stage props. The group collaborates with artist Ryan Johnson to further enhance the visual spectacle. Johnson’s theatrical sets colorfully frame LaBier’s wildly fluid dance moves, reminiscent of James Brown, Michael Jackson and David Byrne. His signature blend of choreography and jerky motions sync with Schuette and Pieczanski’s stop motion rhythms in a death grip from the first beat. The trio performs with Emily Panic on bass, rounding out the stage show.

Psychobuildings will release their anticipated self-titled debut EP of six experimental dark dance grooves on All Hands Electric in July 2011.

The band is currently in the studio working on their first full length with producer Peter Wade (MNDR, Jennifer Lopez) and will be hitting the road soon. LaBier and Wade met at a New York art gallery show in March 2010. Soon after, Wade began a partnership with the band, with plans to grow the project out of the art gallery and on to the pop charts.
