!PUFF!/ Bad Attitude:
Singing the character,
and the ‘Bubble Grunge Vignettes
7 women, 7 worlds, 7 songs
“!PUFF!/ Bad Attitude: Singing the character, and the ‘Bubble Grunge Vignettes’' is a collaborative concept album. !PUFF! blends music and fiction to depict the lives of seven women living in different worlds across time and dimensions through the form of a musical EP and an anthology of flash fiction.Each story has been illustrated and translated into song with support from local artists and instrumentalists. In ‘Shadows’ a woman mourns the chaos of late stage capitalism. Hopeless, she calls forth divinity under the burning sky. In ‘Kings’ a peasant woman barely escapes the terror of a legendary monster. Finding the holy castle in ruin, she comes face to face with the homicidal Jester of the court. ‘Trampoline’ describes a woman haunted by the monotony of life in a psychiatric institution. When the oldest resident:Paul,acquires a trampoline it becomes an allegory for her life. In ‘It’s Bad’ a woman hops a train car after robbing a bank. She gets away, but not without losing a piece of herself.These songs offer glimpses into the tiny, yet grandiose worlds of bizarre women and circumstances. Please, come in.
