ha, yeah, I know. I got sucked into this one a couple of years ago and it's been a black hole ever since.

I need that gorgoroth concert dvd where they hung naked people on crucifixes and stuck decapitated goats heads on stage...I need to see that.

There was an mp3 of a beste interview that was pretty cool too...it was on headbangers blog a few weeks back


If you are really into this black metal shit as much as I am, check this Varg Vikernes documentary out...this is the illest shit

Lamour how was the show?? Mikhail and I ended up going to see Poultrygesit! Llyod Kaufman was there doing a Q and A,...movie was a bit slow, but GORE was sick!

 

I'm curious to see pictures of this show as well.

 

Yeah, I missed it too. Had stuff to get ready for KISS show. The slow but awesome gore seems to be a recurring in Trauma films. Better than Die You Zombie Bastards? I'm going to check out the Black Metal Show sometime during the week though.

 

so all that for nothing, huh?

 

the show's still on. Just don't have to deal with the crowd now.

 

it wasn't one of those one-night thingies, huh? cool. Looking forward to the LA showing

 

I wonder if this came to Tokyo and I missed it...

I can't believe Troma is even around anymore! I interned there when I was but a wee lad of 18 and even then it seemed like any day the debt collectors or city health inspectors or union organizers would show up and the doors would close for good. Then again, I guess if it wasn't like that it wouldn't be Troma, would it?

 

When's the London one for this?

june 10th!

 

I went to this in NYC. it was such a small show. Did anyone see that little dog that lives at the gallery? OMG i wanted to hug him forever. (I know that is not very metal)

 

Don't worry Missy, your actions could never betray your true metal core. On a sidenote, this book has done fairly well for me. If you have not seen it yet in person, I urge you to check it out. One of my favorite books of this year.

 

Yeah, the exhibit was kind of dissapointing because I might have preconceived some grandiose ultra sleek and modern coven showing this but buy the book instead. That will definitely not dissapoint. Also, that Trouma dude said he never loses money on any of his films. His films keep giving and giving with less than a shoestring budget. True genius.

 

Sweet exhibit. I saw something about that film and forgot to check it out. Must do that soon.

 

Where's that interview with the Troma dude, some of their films are intense in the true meaning of the word.

 

Just received my copy of the book...really really Nice addition to the collection. Most of the pics can be seen on beste's site, but I just had to own this.
