Eve of Destruction

Using numerous experimental techniques, Staimmer combines protest motifs (Easter march in 1966, demonstration with police intervention) with dance interludes in the urban space, band performances in beat cellars, the Frankfurt Opera House (whose demolition he carries out cinematically), found footage and other impressions to form an associative collage. ‘“Eve of Destruction” is a movie song, a way of making films that corresponds to the position of the protest song.’ (Peter Staimmer)
