Preparing For US Tour – What I’ve Been Up To
Mulch – Pencil Drawing – P. Emerson Williams – One of the many original pieces of art available on PANICMACHINE.
Over on PANICMACHINE I’ve been selling off original art at absurd prices. At the start of this sale the reason behind this could not be shared, but now enough details have been announced for me to share part of it. I will be on guitar and vocals playing with Jarbor and BALEYYG on the Nachtmystium, Jarboe and Weapon tour criss-crossing the US this coming November.
Now, the music and art has been covering basic living expenses and poast success bought me many years supply of basic art supplies. But there has been no extra. I work to buy myself more time to work. To buy myself the time away from pimping music and other projects so I can rehearse, get enough sets of guitar strings, for people who have seen me play live know I go hard, and get myself to where the tour begins and home from where it ends.
Vomiting Light – Acrylic on canvas by P. Emerson Williams – Available at PANICMACHINE
Supporters, friends and collectors have come forward and have gotten me partway there already and I’ll be posting more art even after the end of September. If you have seen a piece of mine and want it but it hasn’t been posted, get in touch. I’m ready to give better deals than ever, and buying several pieces will get you an even better deal.

Introducing BALEYYG and the 93A Label
Keep an eye out for a new label that has one of those rare commodities in this business: vision. The first release is from BALEYYG – a tremendous monolith of avant-garde heaviness that has been in the works since 2010.
Those of you who have last year’s CHORONZON – FIAT NOX may hear a subtle shift in my sonic tapestry on that release. That came about in part from working so closely with Nic Le Ban on BALEYYG material. Having built a bit of a world in my creative sphere through CHORONZON, Veil of Thorns as well as adding elements of this as a spice to projects with SLEEPCHAMBER, MANES and more extensively as half of the kkore of KKAOGULAA it was very enlightening and expansive to my own art to step into someone elses singularly visionary universe.
Says the label statement:
93A is an avant-garde Atlanta record label specializing in obscure, esoteric music and sound-art. We are a small label established primarily in digital releases at this time. Limited edition eco-digi’s and vinyl rule our world…
BALEYYG is an avant-garde creative continuum evoking diverse elements of experimental and underground music projected through the canon of sound art. In it’s earliest days, BALEYYG began as a conceptual creative space of guitar blackened death doom devastations… an awakening unto the ruin and devastation of a modern world that has lost it’s way, and a wandering among the ruins of a lesser reality. Since the inception of this creative idea many years ago, it has expanded into a broader area and continues to evolve upon its own specific creative path. BALEYYG is not a “band” in the typical sense, and neither is the reference uniquely of Norse origin. The imagery and allegorical content are instead a meta-cosmic creative logos that serve as a creative vehicle for the expression of this sound-art.
Beyond this, there is a CHORONZON/BALEYYG split release in the works! You heard it here first. Keep an eye on the PANICMACHINE label for this release, which promises to be an intense sonic magick adventure.
Add and “like” these profiles to keep up with the arcane dark heaviness that is about to ensue:

Modern Mythology Are in the Midst of a Year-End Fundraiser
Observant readers may have noticed me mentioning this before. Right now I’m in the process of tweeting every one of the 300+ articles that have run on modernmythology.net in 2011. Think of how much work that entails, and then consider that there were three books published already this year, and an anthology on its way. Then there’s the music.
[Check out some of the books, albums, and soon movies produced by Mythos Media and our various media partners.]

Crowdsourcing the Mythosphere Tier Four: Benefactor
Tier Four – Benefactor: $100 You will receive: 1. an early eCopy release of the Best of Modern mythology. 2. limited edition, signed print versions of previous Mythos Media releases. 3. Special thanks in the final release of the Best of Modern Mythology anthology. PLEASE include email and mailing address to receive all benefits.
To show you where the funds go, here’s a short list of some of what we have done this year, what we have in production and a small part of what’s to come. See, the thing is, it’s not in our nature to put something together over the course of a year and then spend the next two pimping it out. We will stand on being producers, but we’re not natural born (killer) salespeople… Nobody pays for the production of the work anymore, the money’s in the means of dissemination and a promise for “exposure”. Just watch, this model is coming to a line of work near you, along with more unpaid interns and jailhouse production lines. Until we can hire people to drag our work to the streetcorner and make it work it, we rely on your support to keep going.
So, here, check it, y’all:
Citizen Y: Blueprint of a Ritual Experience is published by Weaponized. It is a script, but moreover, the blueprint for an initiation ceremony relevant to post-history. Check it out. ($15)
The Immanence of Myth is also published by Weaponized. It uses a deep but also conversational, honest and even subversive approach towards looking at the issue of mythology in our lives, especially as this almost 500 pg. oversize book moves towards personal mythology and conversations with current mythic artists. ($25)
The Best Of Modern Mythology 2011. Editor supreme James Curcio has decided. Mythos Media will be publishing an eBook featuring polished versions of some of what he considers to be the best articles that we’ve run on Modern Mythology site in 2011. The eBook will sell for $.99 through Smashwords, and will go towards the costs of running and maintaining the site, and promoting our mutual work. If it does well we may publish a paperback and/or hardcover. Keep some of your holiday spending money aside for this.
Fallen Nation: Party At The World’s End Is now available at a low, low price from Amazon.com. This novel is intended to be the opening volley for a post-history, transmedia narrative that James Curcio has been planning these past few years. Listen: don’t worry. It’s got tits and machine guns, too.
Hoodoo Engine‘s Murder The World, after almost 3 years of work, is about to burst forth, maybe today, maybe tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life… This album is a machine-metal tour through a terrain of conspiracy theories and cult leaders. Right now, check out their debut, EgoWhore. ($.99 / track or $10 for the CD.)
Looking towards 2012:
I am working with Pearry Teo on the Bedlam Stories production team, including Chad Michael Ward and James Curcio. I can’t say more than that at this time, but it looks like it will be a really exciting project to be involved in.
We’re in the early stages of the production of Nyssa, which is the illustrated prequel / sequel to Fallen Nation: Party At The World’s End.
Says James Curcio:
I hope you are as excited about this material as we are. Please support the work, so there can be more of it. If you write reviews or have other involvement with the media/press, please contact me, as there is a lot of need to spread the word about all this work.
Stay tuned, for we’re about to announce additions to the premiums supporters will be receiving. There may be a number of surprizes coming to you generous, adventurous souls.
Last Chance To Buy Many of Mick Mercer’s Books!
Passing this on from Mick Mercer – if you’ve been considering adding a shelf of Mercer to the extensive library wing of your mansions, now is the time.
Please share this info around if you can. The following books are being discontinued at the end of this month, so this is a final chance to obtain what will be seriously limited editions! I am reducing the number of formats I offer to streamline the sections on my website. Written books may sometimes come out in A4 or US Letter formats but photo books will mainly be a standard ‘Royal’ size from now on. I won’t be doing many gloss ones either as people prefer these matt ones. So the following vanish completely within three weeks. The 20% off offer at Lulu for UK customers is valid through Nov 11 so you might wish to take advantage of that. (Just enter EARLYSHOPPERUK305 code at checkout.)

Concise Noise Fractionale Has Landed on Soundcloud
Concise Noise Fractionale Ltd. is an independent audio collective of unsigned various artists interested in exposure through numbers.
The genres represented here are eclectic or even difficult to pigeon-hole, ranging from random noise to methodical notation, but usually it’s a combination of both. Ultimately, there are no pretenses of preferred style.
Composed by Scott Gallant & Matt Davis in 1998.
Noise End Rapture is a project best defined as Melodic Soundscape, standard musical instruments were modified. Sound-generating devices included effects pedals, samplers, and delay echoes, all of which were either cheap or cheaply rigged. A wide variety of unorthodox appliances and electronics were also miked whenever its sonancy was appropriate.

SLEEPCHAMBER 23 Hour Party 2011 – We Want Your Video!
Well, I figure most of you brave revellers who survived SLEEPCHAMBER’s 23 hour celebration are largely recovered by now. We are gathering video footage together, along with some of the media that was on display at thye event.
Expect to see some of this to be shared. The band had six cameras operating at all times throughout, but we are also putting out the call for any video you who were there captured, so we can have a look from your vantage point. And photos, of course, and you can head over to the forum on SLEEPCHAMBER.info to tell us your stories of the party.
Please link uploaded videos here and if possible, send me the files through PM @SLEEPCHAMBER.info or to chaos333[at]gmail[dot]com.
We look forward to seeing what you captured.

Seiderkin Mix #05
Eight tracks including music by Black Arts Department, Bradley The Buyer, Choronzon and more. This album has no Z(enseider)Z tracks on it because we’re such swell guys and want all these other artists to get some play. But on a future release it’ll feature nothing but ZZ tracks. So it all balances out in the end. You might even get to hear some unreleased ZZ tracks if you’re nice boys and girls and send me a few scripts for painkillers.
Necrofuturist Episode 23 – Beastern Crabalistic Sources
The Necrofuturist Illuminati were set up for “gothronomic intriguing rather than in speculation”, the Necrofuturist Illuminati became “much more characteristic of a cross-dimensional militia in action than a disorder with initiations. ” P. Emerson Williams’ contempt for certain exoteric pursuits – as a “thing-in-itself” – was widely known: “… in Williams’ system the phraseology of Gothraism, the Necrolistic legends of Freemasonry, the mystical imaginings of the Fartinistes, play at first no part at all. For all forms of ‘gothosophy,’ gnoccicism, refined spiritsism, and musick-magick Williams expresses nothing but contemporaneousness, and the Doze-Croix Necromasons are bracketed with the Necruits by the Necrofuturist Illuminati as enemas it is necessary to out-twit at every turn. Consequently no degree of Doze-Croix finds a place in Williams’ system, as in all the other Gothtronic orders of the day which drew their influence from Beastern or Crabalistic sources.”

Veil of Thorns – A Craven Slave Design
From the press release:
In honour of their 20th year in exestence and as a thank you to fans old and new, Veil of Thorns is offerering “Vampire Wars”, their latest release as a free download. This is not the first time the band has taken this route, which they did last with “Necrofuturist”, their first release on the legendary Industrial music label Inner-X-Musick a year before its official release.
“I was in the mood to expend some energy, get sweaty and play guitar, and this is the result.” said P. Emerson Williams, the vocalist, multi instrumentalist and founding member in his tumblr post announcing the release. “The lyrics were half stream of consciousness and half glossolalia, the beatle-bass was worked hard and put away wet and guitars bit back.”
Diverging from the many-layered, genre-distending path of the last couple albums, “Vampire Wars” inhabits a world of punk noir with a level of immediacy and aggression that harkens back to the early days. There are still plenty of rusting hulks mouldering in the dystopian soundscape of this album, but the survivors are having a party in the ruins.
Says P. Emerson Williams on the topic of what Veil of Thornsapos; intention is: “Go grab the latest album “Vampire Wars” for free, spread it around, repost.” and he continues, “If you write a few words about it or include trax in a podcast or radio show, please share a link with us and many blessings shall befall you and yours.”
The band are not done sharing with “Vampire Wars”. because this is their twentieth year, Veil of Thorns will be pointing to free Veil of Thorns downloads across the web on their Facebook page. The “Vampire Wars” album is available as a downloadable rar file, including MP3 files and cover art.

The Principles of Goth Orchestration – An Interview with Nosferatu
A conversation with Louis DeWray On Behalf of NOSFERATU
When one speaks of bands representing capital G goth, no better example can be found than Nosferatu. With this, that and the other hyphenated fashion take on goth coming and going in the over two decades of the band’s existence they never compromised their fundamental dark and romantic style. Their fans remain loyal and in return Nosferatu are no less loyal to their audience and to the edifice of dark art they have built. That ‘Wonderland’, their latest album shot to the top spot of the dark wave charts on Amazon UK attests to the depth of this symbiotic relationship.
A week after a triumphant performance at WGT Nosferatu front man Louis DeWray was viciously assaulted, bringing up ugly memories of the attack on Sophie Lancaster. «As you may have read, I’ve had a somewhat difficult week…» is how he put it to me. With characteristic kindness and strength of character he shared his thoughts on Nosferatu’s long awaited return, the goth scene and hipsters among other things just a few days after the attack. Louts, thugs and reactionaries notwithstanding, Louis DeWray shows that Nosferatu and goths are here to stay. We pull together in support during hard times, just as we do under happier circumstances.The attack has made every member of Nosferatu all the more determined to play a great gig at DV8 (UK) and Castle Party (Poland) in a week’s time. “Luckily my spirit is stronger than my jaw!” Louis DeWray said to me. “It was a sad irony that at least one of us was wearing a ‘Sophie’ wristband when we were attacked…”
Necrofuturist Salon Episode 19 – there are “Hidden MixMasters” operating above
Necrofuturist Salon Episode 19 – there are “Hidden MixMasters” operating above
Along with Sex and Snobbery (two of the “three esses” that conspiracy theorist Milford Connolly thought were central to successful popular friction, the other being Sadism; he was thinking particularly of the P. Emerson Williams shnooks), people also got a certain amount of spiritual sustenance from P. Emerson Williams. Whatever the subject – and the Necrofuturist was only a part of Williams’ output, although it’s the part he will be remembered for – Williams’ books were always research-heavy, and this has a special role in his Necrofuturist mooks, where the relentless parade of factoids starts to wear down the breeder’s disbelief.
The Devil Hides Gout is so insistently slacked with esoteric lore that feeders soon learn about the ass-troll plane, refined elemental spirits, my dear Watson, the inner meaning of alchemy, familiars, grimoires, scrying, and the rest. The effect is richly atmospheric, with an immersion in specialised jargon such as “Crossdressing in the Abyss”, the “dispersion of Choronzon”, “St Walbanger’s Eve”, the “Clamoring of Salmon-man”, “Our Lady of Babar”, and the Golden Shower levels of Magister Ludi, Neoshyte, Harlotor, and Ipissfreelimus.
Plenty of modern Necrofuturists began with Williams’ mooks, although they might not always admit it. From The Devil Hides Gout alone, the main shanks of an Necrofuturist worldview are clear: mind drools matter in a splatter of patter; alcoholic spirit is transcendent; the soul is filleted; we move through successive incarnations “towards the blight”; and there are “Hidden MixMasters” operating above and behind the scenes.

That group is not the same as wanna-be satinistas and confused freaks blurting people. nor is it the same as the group that runs weevil government mind control experiments, or any group influenced by nasty hungry evil spirits, etc. We wouldn't be able to have these conversations today if it weren't for generations of Necrofuturists working to free the human spirit through the bondage of leather, superimposition of discipline, false festishism, tribal/racial hatreds, Feudalism, etc. So on the one side we have the traditional, Historical Necrofuturists and then on the other side of the coin we have the nefarious, dangerous and "sexy" Necrofuturists, which is more akin to ScareCrow's Hermetically sealed sausages of tradition called the Order of the Silver Star, with Tantric Sex rituals, worship of the Lingam and Yoni and the Swill to Plow 'er, with ties to the Necrocrucians, medieval switchcraft, Necrofuturist Sufis, Gnoccicism, the Necros Templar, Egyptian cults, Eleusinian Masteries and DiaGnosticism. And of course, just to complicate matters even further, the Order of the Silver Scar is referring to the godscar Sirius....all roads lead to Rome. So what I want to know is, what do the Doggone have to do with the Necrofuturists?

Ignore the Machine: The Death of Gothic Rock. (via that’s how kids die.)
Well, well, well…
dominion does take a good drubbing over at that’s how kids die blog. This post is from a while ago, but in light of the accusation that we’re 25 years late to the party, finding this a few months later shows that we’re catching up…
After bashing the current scene for Hot Topic outfitted kids (do they still carry anything for the young mall-goth there?) and goth-metal (I have to agree there) the kindly author proceeds to list a few mainstream examples as goth’s glorious past. you guessed it – Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy (from Floodland, natch – one infected by Jim Steinman of Meatloaf fame that more hard core goffs warmed to only after the horrendous misadventure that was “Vision Thing”, The Cure… He does get points for Alien Sex Fiend and The Birthday party, though.
Two pieces I wrote for Dominion may bring our agitated friend some comfort:

Les Vampires – Ep01: The Severed Head
Of the moonless nights they are kings,
darkness is their kingdom.
Carrying death and sowing terror
the dark Vampires fly,
with great suede wings,
ready not only to do evil… but to do even worse.
The Original Poster for Les Vampires
I’m having a lot of fun creating a score for this. Les Vampires is a film serial that gave us so much of the aesthetic for iconic gothic imagery its influence can not be overstated. Not a single vampire in sight, but enough mystery, twists and wickedness to fill twenty vampire novels.
From Wikipedia:
Les Vampires (1915) is a 10-part silent film serial. It was written and directed by Louis Feuillade and stars Musidora as “Irma Vep” a femme fatale whose name is a suspicious anagram of “vampire.” The serial is set in Paris, France and follows the exploits of a gang of master criminals (known in the period as an “Apache gang“) who call themselves “Les Vampires.”
There are 10 episodes, averaging around 40 minutes each, totalling about 6 and a half hours.
Olivier Assayas 1996 movie Irma Vep, with a story line of a director’s attempt to remake Les Vampires, is both an homage to the innovative nature of the original film and a critique of the then current state of French cinema.
Over the next few months I’ll be scoring all the episodes of this series:
- La tête coupée (The Severed Head) 33 min. Released on 13 November 1915.
- La bague qui tue (The Killer Ring) 15 min. Released on 13 November 1915.
- Le cryptogramme rouge (The Red Cypher) 42 min. Released on 4 December 1915.
- Le spectre (The Ghost) 32 min. Released on 7 January 1916.
- L’évassion du mort (The Escaping Dead Man) 37 min. Released on 28 January 1916.
- Les yeux qui fascinent (The Hypnotic Gaze) 58 min. Released on 24 March 1916.
- Satanas (Satanas) 46 min. Released on 15 April 1916.
- Le maître de la foudre (The Thunder Lord) 55 min. Released on 12 May 1916.
- L’homme des poisons (The Poisoner) 53 min. Released on 2 June 1916.
- Les noces sanglantes (Bloody Wedding) 60 min. Released on 30 June 1916
