Preacher

This is a place where the hate, insanity, anger, love, and bitterness that creates the whole of me converges aurally (and sometimes visually) into something resembling music.
In this place nothing is sacred. -=[Disclaimer: This is not a christian or religious project. It is in no way affiliated with the spreading of religion, or mental disease. The religious imagery & symbols used is meant to dull their impact, and make them more commonplace; therefore sapping their meaning. Feel free to consider them blasphemous and wrong.]=-

Necronomicon

1) Necronomicon were formed in 1971 in Aachen, the Western part of Germany near the Belgium and Netherlands border. With an album title (Tips zum Selbtsmord) that means "How to Commit Suicide," Necronomicon's one album, from 1972, featured bleak progressive garage rock with long instrumental passages. With wailing acid guitar solos, dark organ swirls, and angst-ridden singing in German, Necronomicon has created a dark and powerful vision that blends psychedelic and progressive music with a proto-punk garage band sensibility.
