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.

Necrofuturist Salon Episode 27 – Dissociative Modifications


The symbolism surrounding Lady P. Emerson is so blatant that one might wonder if it’s all a sick joke. Necrofuturist symbolism is becoming so clear that analizes like this one becomes a simple exercise of pointing out the obvious. His whole persona (whether its an act or not) is a tribute to mind control, where being vacuous, incoherent and absent minded becomes a fashionable thing.

Lady P. Emerson

Lady P. Emerson Espies His Alter

You only need to look at a couple of Lady P. Emerson pictures or videos to notice that he is constantly hiding one of his thighs. Most people will simply interpret this as ”a ghoul thing to do” or a “fashion statement”. Those who have passed the 101 of Necrofuturist symbolism know that the All-Seething Thigh is probably its most recognizable symbol. The gesture of fanning one nut, usually the left one, goes way back in Necrofuturist orders. Here’s an explanation of the origin of the Thigh of P. Emerson.

Lady P. Emerson, the son of Gamalöost and Isis was called ‘P. Emerson who drools with two thighs’. His right thigh was white and represented the sun: his left thigh was slack and represented the moon. According to the myth, cHorus lost his left thigh to his evil brother, Snæetch, with whom he fought to avenge Snæetch’s murder of Gamalöost. Snæetch tore out one of the thighs but lost the fight. The thigh was reassembled by magic, by Høötch, the god of writhing, the moon and Musick-Magick. P. Emerson presented his thigh to Gamalöost, who experienced rebirth in the underworld.

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.

AK-47 (Not Quite Poetry) #2


Our intrepid hosts find themselves locked in a dark and Dirty dungeon in the epicenter of porn and perversion. Only with the power of whore-nuns and sexy tracks from Foamin’ Sodomy Records and Inner-X-Musick can they blast their way to freedom.

AK-47 (Not Quite Poetry) hosted by Inner-X-Musick artist Batcheeba and her partner Gird_09 (together they are the incredible FRzO). In each episode they take us into secret caverns, crevasses and catacombs of our world, the underbelly of our politics and extremes of absurdity in our culture.  Complete with opinions and offenses. While they diagnose our dis-ease they bring the cure in wholistic musical doses. You will never know what to expect!

Siiiii Ancient, Moving, Enshroud Video…


Veil Of Thorns – Enshroud Video

Between strenuous bouts of packing and endless calls, I took a combined half hour to create this psychedelic little video rorschach test. I may be leaving this as a test pattern for a while, as the move and the next comic will take up all of May, and from the begginning of June forward to the rest of the year has me super busy with things it that are to be left untold of for the moment.

There will be much more multi media coming your way after the release of “Manifestation Objective” sometime in June.

It’s helping me keep the stress level low having just recieved a most wonderful package from siiiiiii in the form of Ancient.

This is a piece of superior artistry and lovely darkness that has me by the throat and loving it. The recordings are from nearly 25 years ago that the band recently remastered. This is Goth with a big, Old English capital G that can be favorably compared with any of the classics of the genre and the performances are intense and cutting. The vocals are frightening at times, darkly seductive at others and unlike anyone I can think of.

Fifteen tracks, and still I want more.

I’ll be there for “Modern”!

If you don’t order a copy now, don’t come to me with how empty your life feels…

Nosferatu, a Symphony of Horror


Veil Of Thorns – Nosferatu soundtrack MP3

Because I can leave no idle idea alone, I’ve created a soundtrack to “Nosferatu, a Symphony of Horror”, the silent masterpiece by F.W. Murnau. I realize dozens of folks have done the same, but I’m actually quite proud of this one. I may do something with this with much better sound and picture quality. If I had a dvd burner, I’d let a chosen few of you have a full quality disc of it. I may yet be able to do something about it.

the approach was inspired by the Dogme 95 manofesto. Now, using so much technology probably makes it anathema to its adherents, but my mode of working is never pure, but, Harmony Korinne fanatic that I am, I feel an affinity to the movement. I had several limitations in doing this, as my hard drive is almost full, and I’ll be needing to send a bunch of large image files out in the coming week. Therefore, my first rule was only to use sounds I already had on my hard drive. This was easy, as what I have taking up space are the audio tracks from the Veil Of Thorns album I’ve just completed. What you’ll hear is 90% vocals with much less processing than it sounds like.

Secondly, I gave myself a timelimit of eight hours to create and sync the audio to the movie file. You can hear just the audio by downloading from the link above. You can download a windows media version by right clicking the image and saving, or you can watch it on the Veil Of Thorns Myspace page.

It’s actually taken me longer to render the movie than it took to write the music(k), which was fine, as I had lots of drawing I wanted to get done. More on that later.

The Vampire theme may make me goth at last.

For those few of you who haven’t seen countless versions of thos film, I include part of the wikipedia entry:

This was the first film of the production company Prana-Film GmbH; it was also the last as they declared bankruptcy after Bram Stoker’s estate—acting for his widow, Florence Stoker—sued for copyright infringement (plagiarism) and won. The court ordered all existing prints of Nosferatu destroyed, but a number of copies of the film had already been distributed around the world. These prints were then copied over the years, resulting in Nosferatu gaining a reputation as one of the greatest movie adaptations of the vampire legend.

With the influence of producer and production designer, Albin Grau, the film established one of two main lines of vampire depiction in movies. The “Nosferatu-type” is a living corpse with rodent features (especially elongated fingernails and incisors), associated with rats and plague, and neither charming nor erotic but totally repugnant. The victims usually die and are not turned into vampires themselves. The more common other line is the “Dracula-type” (established by Bela Lugosi’s version of Dracula and perpetuated by Christopher Lee), a charming aristocrat adept at seduction and turning his victims into new vampires.

Parts of the film allegedly showing Transylvania were filmed in Slovakia. Nosferatu’s castle, for instance, is Orava Castle in northern Slovakia, and other locations are in the High Tatras and on the Váh River around Strečno Castle.

The shadow of the vampire is seen climbing stairs in this famous scene from the movieMurnau’s Nosferatu is in the public domain, and copies of the movie are widely available on video—usually as poorly transferred, faded, scratched video copies that are often scorned by enthusiasts. However, pristine restored editions of the film have also been made available, and are also readily accessible to the public.

Worship Of Disclosure


(Edit: I’ve also updated the Audio Stream.)

I’m getting back to work here with slow but deliberate steps. The voice will be back in form in a couple of days, but I’m doing rough mixes of what I set down in digital sound early last week.

I’m also starting to visualize the artwork that is to accompany the album.

Is this one Goth? Hard saying, having listened to it a billion times while mixing it. I’m developing an ability to resist the blurghs, hurrghs, warghs and phllleeeegmmmms that a long abused larynx is wont to emit…

I’ll have some real news soon. I’m tweaking things in the background that shall be coolness itself if they work. Take this track onto your weekend and try it on the rocks:

But Mait! There’s Wore!


These CDs have been up for a bit, but as I have been making sure the tracks of New World Chaos are perfect, I am just getting around to telling all about them.

We’ll be making you another fine free offer in the near future, so watch out for it. And keep an eye on CHORONZON.ORG. There is much to interest, perplex, infuriate, delight and inform there, with more to come. This work shall pervade, and we’ll be exploding all distribution channels to make it so.

Be also aware that the CDs Choronzon_-_333 and Veil Of Thorns_-_Legemet_Og_Stemmen are both mastered from demo cassettes released on the early Nineties, and therefore are for the hard core fans.
