Hirttaytynyt Neito
PX3Kauppila is Pauliina Kauppila is a respected percussionist and psychiatrist, a combination of two themes that is a red line in her debut album derived from endlessly curious about life. Lyrically she brings alive the ancient Finnish spell poems that have cured diseases and madness; banished witches and bent gods still 100 years ago in her album 'Hirttäytynyt Neito' (translated to 'The Hanged Maid'). Musically she moves in the borderland of David Lynch - and David Bowie - influences, folk music and theatre. 'The Hanged Maid' highlights the endemic inequality in our society, and presents perspectives on individual autonomy, while discussing our very human need to find solutions and to nurture. Kauppila's debut is released in a gatefold sleeve on limited purple smoke coloured vinyl.
