BEWARE THE MOON, BEACON OF THE WEREWOLF

Werewolf special-makeup-effects are a 100+ year artform that kicked off with 1913′s The Werewolf. Which is why it really gets under my skin when i see werewolves that are rendered entirely in CGI (e.g. Underworld, Twilight, Howl, etc.) To me, it’s a sign of an incredibly lazy creature-effects department. I honestly hope the love and craft for practical creature design inevitably returns for this genre.

“…I can see into Bono’s heart and my own beats faster because of this and I realized that I’m receiving a message of some kind from the singer.  It hits me that we have something in common, that we share a bond, and it’s not impossible to believe that an invisible cord attached to Bono has now encircled me and now the audience disappears and the music slows down, gets softer, and it’s just Bono onstage–the stadium’s deserted, the band fades away–and the message, his message, once vague, now gets more powerful and he’s nodding at me and I’m nodding back, everything getting clearer, my body alive and burning, on fire, and from nowhere a flash of white and blinding light envelopes me and I hear it, can actually feel, can even make out the letters of the message hovering above Bono’s head in orange wavy letters: ‘I … am … the … devil … and I am … just … like … you …’”

-Patrick Bateman, American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis

Gyps Fulvus:  "Melancholia"

Gyps Fulvus emerges with a new release, “Melancholia.”

Loosely inspired by the doomsday film by Lars von Trier, “Melancholia” is a three part work of cinematic, avant-garde instrumental material. It displays a segue from harmonious consonance to unsettling dissonance, representing the beauty and brutality of the universe.

Available in digital download through Bandcamp at the Name Your Price feature. Compact discs are for sale on demand in the merchandise section.

“Yes, there’s a God.  You know, you’d think meeting the Devil would be interesting enough, but no: all people want to know about is him–like he’s so bloody fascinating.”
