+ JEUCE

After two fiery albums, Silence Slowly And Madly Shines in 2017 (Alter K) and Private Meaning First in 2019
(Vicious Circle / FatCat Records), the members of The Psychotic Monks have never ceased to impress us with
their maturity and determination to offer a singular stage and discographic presence.
Their 3rd album, Pink Colour Surgery, was released on February 3rd, 2023 on Vicious Circle / FatCat
Records. The album is produced by Daniel Fox of Gilla Band and composed in part by improvisations and
arrives as an act of resistance to the ambient violence. Disconcerting at first sight, this new opus operates in the
dark a surgery of the ethics which is fleshed out of pink for a staggering metamorphosis. Its very structure
embarks us entirely in an initiatory trip full of secret corners, provided that we accept to dive into it, to plunge into
it.
Yet radical, Pink Colour Surgery work is truly accessible to those who deeply immerse themselves in it. One is
unceasingly hypnotized, shaken because its soul flirts dangerously with a furious and oppressive trance. The journey becomes addictive, letting yourself slide from one track to another, sometimes struck,
sometimes set ablaze with an unexpected epiphany, because its light irradiates us. Live music is an
intimate, sensory experience, whose deflagration is still received long after.
Pink Colour Surgery is like a hidden room in a house that we have never entered before, and the possibility of
feeling good there is not excluded.
