BloodLust! December 21, 2018 Update

The latest news from BloodLust! HQ


BloodLust! December 21, 2018 Update



NEWS


Work on the Super Eight Loop series continues. Recordings of the two BLOODYMINDED appearances at No Fun Fest (2005/2006) have been turned into limited edition CDs that should be shipped by the duplicator shortly. My second solo recording of the year is assembled and will be available soon. I've been unpacking more boxes and turning up all sorts of goodies. Check it out...







The "Mystery Box" is gaining in popularity and I've been enjoying packing them up for those who've already ordered them. I've been digging up some cool old flyers, etc., to include. Thank you to those who've already played along!

The test copies of the two No Fun Fest CDs arrived and both editions of 100 copies are in production:


I posted this classic photo on FB/IG earlier in the week and it proved to be quite popular. NYC 2005. Left to right: Chris Goudreau (Sickness), Xavier Laradji (BLOODYMINDED), Pieter Schoolwerth (BLOODYMINDED), Mark Solotroff (BLOODYMINDED), Jonathan Canady (Deathpile), John Balistreri (Slogun), John "Baby Dickers" Ways (R.I.P.).


I recently unpacked this group of photos that Xavier sent me after his first trip to Chicago in 1997, when we first met. He noticed that we were standing on Lake Street, so he documented that moment. John from Slogun is mugging for the camera in NYC. Vagina Dentata Organ fans should recognize Eliseu Huertas...


Yes, still a little more design work to do for the forthcoming BLOODYMINDED LP/CD before the hand off to Megan.

The Fortieth Day is the duo of Isidro Reyes and Mark Solotroff, both key players in the heavy-electronics outfit BLOODYMINDED, a band known for its aggressive and confrontational live shows. In The Fortieth Day, Reyes and Solotroff utilize guitar, bass, drum machine, and analog synthesizer to create epic, blackened, psychedelic-industrial drone soundscapes.

Standing in the rain with J.R. from Wreckmeister Harmonies and looking thrilled. Thanks, Pieter!
