Looking for the Magic by Max G. Morton

Heartworm #32

Max Morton is a guru of the murderous American underbelly, and Looking For the Magic is a gem-encrusted sarcophagus of epic memoir, adventure, violence, magic, loss, and a journey to the four American corners. Morton's words have yet to fail the hungry global tribe of whom he speaks, and they never will.

An eleven-chapter arena of unwell living. Foreword by Boyd Rice, collages by Dominick Fernow. Magic's aura is still black, but it shows tomorrow's colors as the search grows. From the pre-teen kicks of the suburban karate circuit, straight down to the attempted murder of Tiny Tim, back up again at Coney Island High, to a realm of balance in a Park Avenue brothel. Let a teenage klansman, an autistic weatherman, a crackbaby Count, Peggy Moffitt and Polly Magoo of the mainlining set, a sheriff with invisible handcuffs, a Santa Monica painted nightcat and a girl named Kitten be your guide through the second block of the Apocalypse Junkyard.

Edition of 400.
190 pages.

Not suitable for minors.

Criminal Desires: Jean Genet and Cinema

Hooray for Genet.

Jean Genet, the author noted for his celebrations of homosexuality and criminality was also fascinated with the possibilities in film. Genet made his only film, Un Chant d'Amour in 1950. The result was a peotic and sexually explicit paean to homosexual desire, the criminal impulse and the power of the imagination to transcend physical captivity. Criminal Desires contains complete documentation of the making of the film, a shot-by-shot description, thematic analyss and history of the film. The book also documents Genet's many other unfinished screenplays, film appearances by Genet and the adaptations of Genet's work by other directors including The Balcony, Deathwatch, The Paids, poison, Querelle.
Illustrated throughout and with an introduction by Genet biographer Edmund White, Criminal Desires is a compelling introduction to Genet's world of prisons, voyeurism and homo lust. Includes 80 photographs.

Hermann Nitsch- Muse

Beautiful oversized shrinkwrapped hardcover book.

The important Vienna Actionist Hermann Nitsch once said, ""Red is the color that people register the most because it is simultaneously the color of life and death."" Originally inspired by French Tachisme and American Abstract Expressionism, Nitsch began working with paint in the late 1950s and early 60s, putting on ""theatrical painting actions"" in order to produce large-scale spill paintings. Up until the very early 1960s, his canvases were often still stained with evocative rivers of red paint; over the ensuing years, he would gradually replace paint with blood and stretched canvases with unstretched bed sheets, bringing an assortment of new and highly charged ""materials"" into his practice, including internal organs, animal cadavers and human bodies. From the 1960s until the late 1990s, Nitsch staged nearly 100 ritualistic performance actions in his Theater of Orgies and Mysteries series. Through the complete set of these often incendiary actions, which included live slaughters, dance, music and other pagan gestures, Nitsch realized his concept for a total work of art that brings together painting, architecture and music with the catharsis of self-recognition.

from Hospital:

tracklist:
A1 Sex Ads
A2 I’ve Seen The Future And It’s No Place For Me
B Always Someone
i have seen the future, and it’s no place for me. this is a special record for hospital. although we have always shared a certain love for trance, power noise, synth pop, and 80’s industrial music it is the first time we directly venture into this controversial and rhythmic world. cold cave presents 3 tracks of authentically morose epic anthems with the texture of a shattered champagne glass. imagine a highly damaged downward spiral era demo hitting the raw nerve to heart where all breaths freeze in rapture and all feelings croak in the blood of the beat-less heart.

Cold Cave- Cremations CD

From Hospital: "Cremations is a collection of early demo/live/and unreleased tracks from Cold Cave. From the projects isolated beginnings to the recent full band line-up the development of this singular musical entity is documented here in its icy electronic glory. From Cold Cave’s infancy sexual identity and oblique existentialism have been expressed through biting lyrics and electronic minimalism. Rarely has the human condition been exposed so brazenly as in “Sex Ads”. Melodies, noise and rhythms clash as stories from below the surface are retold. From the demo LP Coma Potion, which featured a rugged stripped down distortion, to the suggestive Electronic Dreams tour cassette (featuring the voice of Max Morton on the track “Heavenly Metals”). Cold Cave has developed its own brand of genre defying electronic music, without ever betraying its dark roots. Love and pornography, Industrial music and traditionalism, poetry and profanity all mix together in a hedonistic, cocktail of nihilistic nights and mournful mornings. Cremations collects all this work for the first and last time."

Prurient- Rose Pillar

Heartworm #25

180 Page Hardcover Book with 11" Record.

What separates Dominick Fernow’s Prurient project from the rest of the contemporary underground cannon is its unyielding personal subject matter. From the inception of Prurient the concept has always utilized intimate details, photographs, letters and other ephemera culled from places where most artists would choose to obscure. Prurient draws these details into focus more than ever on Rose Pillar, a 180-page hardbound book of Fernow’s collage work and text supplied by his mother Jean Feraca from her previously published memoir I Hear Voices. Feraca tells the story of the death of Stephen, the brilliant but troubled older brother, an anthropologist who was adopted into a Sioux tribe.

Feraca’s text is juxtaposed with Fernow’s collages of fallen empires, plant-life and industrial decline. The imagery presented is both stoic yet strangely profound and revealing as an analogy of death.

Rose Pillar also contains an 11” vinyl LP containing new material from Prurient that is the most profound and fully-realized work of his career. Prurient is not about an attack but rather a cry for help. Prurient takes the listener to the ends of human emotion as the range of sounds swell as the light of life fades. The climax of the album is the track “spins the worlds wheel again” which contains the most densely melodic frozen drone ever contained on a Prurient recording. What’s evidenced in these recordings is a sense of loss and destruction that can’t be replaced. The sound feels more like an erosion of steady decline, ebb and flow, storms, power controlled and power unleashed.

This multimedia project pries deeply through the depths of mourning on both a personal and societal scale. In conversation Prurient has exclaimed Rose Pillar to be the end of an era in both function and material. This is Prurient taken to its furthest and most satisfyingly complete conclusion. Nothing will be the same after this release as this is the ultimate result of Prurient’s process. Finality is a recurring theme with Rose Pillar and that says more than anything.

SIDE A:

1 - custer claims his arrow
2 - yellow trumpets grow in darkness
3 - gardener of the broken arm

SIDE B:

5 - spins the worlds wheel again
6 - tractor replaces the horse *
