‘The Psychotic Monks 3rd album, Pink Colour Surgery (2023) 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 immerse themselves in it in depth. One is unceasingly hypnotized, shaken, because its soul flirts dangerously with a furious and oppressive trance. How then 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 their 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.
"Musikalisch beeinflusst vom Erwachen des Neo-Post-Punk, eindringlicher Loop-Ästhetik und einer anständigen Portion Trash spielt Dinner for Deux mit einer Mischung aus aggressiver und depressiver Energie. Die deutschen, oft kryptischen Texte des Duos entstehen aus Dialogen einer intensiven Freundschaft mit Höhen und Tiefen und bringen gern die politische und persönliche Orientierungslosigkeit ihrer Generation zum Ausdruck. Bass, Gitarre+Vocals, Drummachine. Das ist der Weg." https://dinnerfordeux.bandcamp.com/
