Does it all connect? In my mind. #texaschainsawmassacre #blackflag
The best American movie & my favorite band both reached inside the American Dream & pulled back the wood paneling to reveal the rot festering underneath. Horror and punk rock are powerful vehicles for speaking truth to power.

Ok, I’ve let it set in a few days. #HouseofBoneandRain by @gabino.bsky.social is in short another win for Gabino. I’ve been a fan since #ZeroSaints came out, and I think House might be my favorite so far. 1/

I knew I’d be missing out by not seeing #Sinners in the theater, but I was not prepared for how fucking amazing this movie looks, from the first shot it’s a work of art. Aesthetically one of the best looking films I’ve seen in my life, a masterpiece that will inspire generations. /1

I haven’t felt compelled to buy an issue of #TheIncredibleHulk since 1988, when Todd McFarlane was doing the pencils. The cover is exquisite. Hopefully my library will have the first volume of the trade, because I need to read this run now.

The lights are on but no one is on the rides. The screams from inside the fun house have drawn quite a crowd. More cops keep going in but none have come out.

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.
