Video: Munk, “Live Fast Die Old” (Ed Banger All Stars Remix)
- story THE FADER
Technology is pretty cool these days. Dudes like Munk can make a cool song, get an Ed Banger remix with Asia Argento whisper singing on it and then make a video that looks like an advanced iTunes visualizer that all of a sudden has Asia Argento in it, screaming and whispering and generally furthering our Asia Argento as Riot Grrrl hypothesis.

- story THE FADER
Death is overrated. Even despite your collection of Italian horror films depicting bloody ghost decapitations and creepy little girls trying to suck your intestines into the teevee. Munk, this German dude who is apparently obsessed with Man Ray judging from his MySpace, understands that the junkies who live fast and die young are stinky, stupid and gross, and that living fast and dying OLD is obviously the way to go, cause then you actually have more time to play wild games. So he made a song about it and got Roman actor/auteur Asia Argento to sing on it; she sounds surprisingly riot churrrrlish (or maybe we’re projecting because her new album is a picture of her HAIRY UNSHAVEN ARMPIT). The original is this awesome understated disco pop jernt, but obviously Ed Banger couldn’t keep their sticky little fingaz (shout to Onyx) off it and made this electro-burpy big-room version, hopefully to remind the gel-hoarders at their raves that love rules and also, Christopher Walken is rad. Buy the whole shebang here.
