My friends and I have been anticipating the domestic bow of Drawing Restraint 9 ever since we knew of its existence. If your life has been touched by Matthew Barney in any way, most likely through his Cremaster Cycle, you probably understand our enthusiasm.
Our first exposure to Barney's work came through an art mag one of my college buddies had. It contained still images from Barney's Cremaster 4. That group of images left a huge impression on us. A few years later when we heard Cremaster 2 was playing at the Nuart, we were compelled to check it out. Our perspectives of reality were forever changed, and we became ardent Matthew Barney admirers/critics.
With his wife Bjork at his side for this latest release, Barney should easily achieve total world domination. (Dancer in the Dark rocked to the earth's core by the way.)
Here's an exciting tidbit of info about the soundtrack: Will Oldham is on it. Hell yes! Oldham's timeless voice helped shape Cremaster 3 into one of the most triumphant cinematic experiences of all time.
Barney, Bjork, and Oldham come together to bring you your new favorite movie. Rejoice!
