PROSVOLI DIMOSIAS AIDOUS (INSULT OF PUBLIC MODESTY)

Sissy Doutsiou is an internationally acclaimed spoken word artist, poet, and actress. Her recordings, videos, and powerful live performances explore personal experiences, social issues, love, and grief.

Her debut album, “Prosvoli Dimosias Aidous (Insult of Public Modesty)”, was created with the collaboration of musicians from Greece, Canada, and Russia, including Orphx, Blakaut, Dimitris Koufoudakis (Fer De Lance), Biomass, and Van Fog.

This is the first spoken word vinyl record in greek ever released in the country’s history, featuring 8 tracks with a total duration of 40 minutes. The highlights include tracks “Θέλω Να Μάθω Να Σε Αγαπώ (I Want to Learn How to Love You)”, “Νέκταρ (Nektar)”, “Αθήνα (Athens)”, and “Ηρωίνη (Heroin)”, known for their unique, gripping atmosphere.

“Insult of Public Modesty” is a multilayered sonic creation, inviting listeners into an exceptional poetic language and a contemporary audio experience. With her dynamic approach, Doutsiou blends poetic themes of identity, social crisis, and individual rebellion with post-punk, industrial noise, and experimental electronica soundscapes. “These are the stories of ordinary, everyday girls who persist to the end, loyal to their rage for freedom, love, and the destruction of all forms of power. Girls like my friends” she says, describing the spirit of the album.

The album will be released digitally on May 9 and on LP on May 30 via Inner Ear in collaboration with the international organisation The Institute For Experimental Arts.
