Douglas Diamond WELCOME TO DIAMONDLAND
(MC)

Diamondland lies just beyond reasonable decisions. Here, the word “fun” has not yet been banned. Here, art is still allowed to be sexy and unreliable. A bartender in a cowboy hat with an unknown past serves homemade drinks. A crooner sings his million-dollar hits to an audience that does not hear. A full-time lover suddenly finds himself in trouble. Chemtrails draw their lines across the sky like a bad idea you can no longer back out of. Diamondland is a fantasy. Sex, conspiracies, and paranoia are not features, but infrastructure. Welcome to Diamondland is fundamentally cinematic. A Once Upon a Time in Hollywood without a budget, or a late, forgotten appearance at the Roadhouse where something feels wrong even before the first note.[info sheet from distr.]
