Terrorlord : Unreleased Beats 2001

Christopher Ashley didn’t start out making 80s-tinged melodic electronic music. In the 90s he was in the noise rock bands Murder Weapon, followed by Index For Potential Suicide. These were bands that dealt loud, pummeling music that often left crowds bloodied and breathless after shows. While Ashley was still in the midst of cacophonic waves […]

The Sounds Of Fall: Albums To Summon The Darkness Part I

Sunday’s high was 90 degrees. Today the high is supposed to be 59 degrees with rain for the next several days and my cold, black heart couldn’t be more thrilled. As I’ve gotten older the heat is becoming less congenial. At first I thought maybe it’s just me getting older, but I think more and […]

Nightmare Songs : The Sleazy Beauty of Slasher Film Festival Strategy

This is a repost from April of 2016 when I talked with Christopher Ashley of Slasher Film Festival Strategy. Great talk and felt it was worthy of a repost. Tune in tomorrow for an exclusive premiere.

Happy Valentine’s Day, Love Slasher Film Festival Strategy

Utopia Is A Doomed Flight To Mars…

It seems everywhere I’m looking it’s nothing but bad news, bad behavior, and bad executive orders. Or worse. Acquaintances, friends, and family are espousing […]

Psychic Shields VS Flesh-Eating Witches….GO!

Slasher Film Festival Strategy have taken up quite a bit of real estate up in my head since November of 2015. My first foray into the grimy and creepy world of SFFS was with the split they did with Antoni Maovvi. I was really impressed with what I’d heard on that three-song EP, so I […]

No One Will Ever Love You

A couple of months ago I came across this great 12″ split by Antoni Maoivvi and a project called Slasher Film Festival Strategy. My friend John at Karma Records of Warsaw told me on Black Friday that he had this split arriving in the afternoon and that he thought I’d really dig it. I had […]

Psychic Driver and The Candy Machine

I may have had all last week off but I didn’t get through it completely unscathed. After some serious house painting I must have pulled a muscle in my back as most of the week I had a funny little twinge between my shoulder blades. As long as I didn’t turn too quickly left or […]
