Today, JESTER KING, the second single from the exceptional Berlin band THE METAFICTION CABARET, is released. The song is a musical procession of jesters. Dark, captivating, and unconventional. With biting irony, danceable groove, and extensive instrumentation, it pushes circus punk to its peak.
The call for law and order is growing louder. In the music video for JESTER KING, which will be released on June 7th, the world is turned upside down. A parade of diversity marches through the streets. The colorful society. They are many and growing. But they are on their way to an execution. The procession of jesters hangs their king.
This image is as ironic as it is consistent. The colorful people need no leader; they take revenge on the hubris of those who want to place themselves at the forefront of a movement, the revolution devours itself, society sacrifices its freedom for order and security.
The Metafiction Cabaret is more than just a band. Their songs are catchy, danceable, rocky, and experimental. Their lyrics are multi-layered. Their live show is spectacular. The Metafiction Cabaret is a rock concert and theater, piano and drums, art blood and confetti. Queer punk. The Berlin nightlife on stage, Brecht in Berghain, glitter, art, and pop.
The album BEAUTIFIC CHARMS is the band's second studio album and will be released on October 18, 2019. Five singles including music videos will be released in advance. In November, their opera UTOPIA LTD. will also premiere.
For their first single HAPPINESS OFFICER, the wild Berlin circus punk band not only produced a music video. The four underground gods created a whole web series (four parts) centered around the title character of their ironic party anthem.
