Caught at Yule Prog 7

"Endless" (Lyrics)

Phantasmic brass crashes, hear it as the mirror glass shatters, eerier than black magic burials with cracked caskets. Experience madness, Evil Messiah, violent animal. A quiet coastal town gets overrun by zombie cannibals. Find her father fiending for f-flesh of Marianna Hill, sixty-six sick scriptures etched into his final will. He stands still, own daughter thought him just another sculpture. Just because the blood's drained, that doesn't make it kosher. You frustrated? Settle down, stress causes ulcers. We've got enough problems with the corpses at the grocers and the locusts and the cobras and the vultures. Yo, it's over, time to relocate to South or North Dakota. Cold and isolated regardless of seasonal stages, they've got an arsenal waiting and they're staging the sieges. Take it or leave it. Y'all misbehaving pagan make-believers can pray for your demons, vacationing on ancient vacant beaches. I awaken from what seemed to be an Endless sleep. Haunting imagery decreed the Requiem for a Dream. I mean it's over, I think. Eyes open and blink. I rush into the restroom, dunk my dome in the sink. Holding the brink of insanity between gasps for breath, nightmarish cemeteries where cadavers stay fresh. As one second fades to death, time manifests. As one second fades to death, I resurrected Luca Brasi. Giuliani ought to be the arch rival, non-libel, nah yo, New Yorker war monger boss gone wild. My Strong Isle dark smile results for the crossfire of frost biter wisenheimers coughing up bile. Hey yo, pardon this funky sound check. Prophetic like unborn child kicks, I'm so far ahead of my time your watch will stick in one spot. Clocks get set still tickity-tock stop a sec. Relatively consequential cause and effect. Miss Polly wants to politic probably 'cause she's on some shit, obviously caught up in these dollars and cents. See, that's the problem with debt - the stock market could hit rock bottom tomorrow, then what you borrowed gets spent on god-awful reprints of Gone with the Wind lost files. Talk bible scriptures, scripting fiction pictures. False idols pop bottles after sabotaging lodges with Adam Rothschild. Phantom goth models crack a monster out the gargoyle.

Andy Koufax - Chin Music

"An exercise in exorcism (of both personal demons and artistic inhibitions), Chin Music eschews giving a fuck about subtlety and sensitivity in favor of just plain going for it. Hence, we get Marvin Gaye and John Coltrane namedrops (on “Luna Melt”), extended Street Fighter metaphors about the protagonist’s love life (on “Unbelievable”), and a requiem named after the performer himself (“Andy”) followed by a stadium anthem cheerfully named for a local roller rink (“United Skates”), but written with all the lingering despair and succinct brutality of a Herzog film."
-Excerpt from my write-up for Chin Music's Tiny Mix Tapes premiere

Herzog. Cage.

One thing about Mr. Liefeld...

There's no shred of pretentiousness there. Critics can blast he and Mr. McFarlane all they want, but the fact remains that they created some of the most memorable characters of the '90s, breathed new life to a dying industry and inspired millions.

"She Opened an Ice Cream Shop to Fund an Assassin - That's Gangsta"

I've never been a big fan of Sole, but every few years it seems he releases a video or song that pretty perfectly sums up whatever my political standing is at the time. This is one of those videos.

I Think I Could Pull Off This Look

It's Been A Long Time

...but not long enough.

(Oh, you thought this post was about the absence of any updates since November. No, sorry)

An article appearing in The Opinion Pages of today's NYT Sunday Review details holocaust researchers' recent uncovering of previously undocumented Nazi ghettos and camps. We now know that throughout Europe there were at least 42,500: "30,000 slave labor camps; 1,150 Jewish ghettos; 980 concentration camps; 1,000 prisoner-of-war camps; 500 brothels filled with sex slaves; and thousands of other camps used for euthanizing the elderly and infirm, performing forced abortions, 'Germanizing' prisoners or transporting victims to killing centers." These discoveries bring the estimated number of prisoners killed up from 11 million to between 15 and 20 million.

Never Forget.
