There Existed an Addiction to Blood by @clppng.bsky.social is everything. I’ve only dipped my toe into their discography but this album is going to be an obsession. The Ganja and Hess sample/reference…chef’s kiss.

In case you don’t know my work-I deal in nightmares, the transgressive, horror with a heart in the darkness not of the darkness, sometimes cosmic, always with a punk attitude of art first/fuck the market. Indie since 1996. (Covers by @sheasullie.bsky.social )

Listening to #CabaretVoltaire live in Bonn, 1980 on YouTube. The audio is better than expected. Wound up abandoning the Target Video of Throbbing Gristle in San Fran, 81, because the audio was shit.

Even though it was our second anthology, KIDS OF THE BLACK HOLE: A Punksploitation Anthology, was where things felt like they finally clicked. Turning 6 years old this year!

The desexualisation of media (everyone is beautiful, and no one is horny) combined with an increasing hysteria around the 'pointlessness' of sex scenes is a key part of the fascistization of western culture and if we're going to fight back we're going to need to make it normal to be horny again.

Books should have a character who says “oh, but that’s BAD!” after every offensive thing to make sure readers know. I masturbated with raw liver for years after reading Portnoy’s Complaint, if Roth had the shrink say “don’t do that, that’s BAD!” it would have saved me a lot of trips to the butcher

I'm not surprised at fascism flourishing when misogyny & sexism are allowed to bloom brighter & brighter in our collective garden. If a man feels a woman is inferior to him, and is then emboldened to embrace that hate, of course he's going to make the jump & lump others into that philosophy.

33 years old. I remember hearing “Low Self Opinion” on Headbangers Ball and needing this album in my life immediately. These days I prefer listening to the demos version, because they sound harder, but the band was at their full power here.

“…wildly varied short fiction writing, encompassing several sub genres of horror and exploitation, distilling body horror, demonic madness, 1970s exploitation, bizzaro, cosmic, absurdist, and weird into a gory, explicit, funny, always captivating collection of literary madness.” a.co/d/h0GEKBG
