My fourth site to lurch livewards for the month, and the one longest coming. Thomas and I started working on this in late-2011, got mostly finished, took a long pause while he added quite a few projects in-between doing also … Continue reading
Back at Theaterhaus Mitte, and not sure what number I am up to in rehearsing, so let’s make approximate. I rehearsed Thursday also, but that was a washout, mostly did yoga and rolled around and eventually watched a movie so … Continue reading
Neither Gala nor Ivo are in Brussels, which makes this decidedly weird being here; eating Piadina alone, sitting on the Metro alone … Hans and Anuschka are here though, and we had an excellent dinner on Thursday, and at least … Continue reading
My Thursday night rehearsal, after which I went to Stadtbad Wedding with Hartmut for !K7-27′s Subkultur / Berlin 80, swapping from metal to industrial. Music for me for the night was Abruptum’s Evil Genius, which is a fine, subtle, and brilliant album, and … Continue reading
I didn’t rehearse last week. Conjoined laziness and taking a short pause after getting Dasniya into car for her journey to Thailand which grew to a three-day bender of doing not very much at all. I hadn’t been able to … Continue reading

The first of split rehearsals, a bit like the old punk split EPs, A side B side from different bands on 12″ 45rpm vinyl. Melanie Lane are sharing rehearsal time to work both on our own projects, and together on something … Continue reading
Music this afternoon was: Gorgoroth, Antichrist; Mayhem, De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas; plus bits of Horn’s Jahreszeiten, and Sunn O)))’s The Grimm Robe Demos and Black One. Also horrible, horrible jazz trombone/trumpet noodling filtering down from the rehearsal room upstairs. I played Mayhem very loudly then, … Continue reading
A night rehearsal yesterday, only because it’s dark at 4 o’clock. It was very nice to be back again so soon, instead of once a week, and with five hours to churn through, which passed surprisingly quick. I’m definitely out … Continue reading
