On a similar theme, it’s weird to see that the almost fanatical interest in The Disciples of Belial’s first seven inch release<\/a> shows no signs of abating.<\/p>\n

No doubt partly fuelled by the fact that it’s the rarest record on a great label, but also by some classic mindfuckery going on in this “interview”<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I saw the Disciples of Belial do a p.a. at one of the later Dead by Dawn parties and it was excellently bonkers, partly because it was impossible to decide who was more mental – the DoB, or the casualties who were jumping about, colliding with the equipment, shouting about satan, etc. Absolutely ridiculous thrash speedcore techno with napalm death -esque shouting over the top of it. Both disciples clad entirely in black, with sort’ve balaclava hoods.<\/p>\n

I tried to do a piece on them for Esoterra magazine as part of my strategy for funking up the apocalyptic post-industrial “uniforms and runes” scene. But the editor wasn’t really into it (tho he did run a piece I wrote on Mother Destruction, which included lots of stuff criticising the more reactionary aspects of the genre, so fair play).<\/p>\n

It was a pretty messy time in my life and I somehow ended up getting a job interview for Bizarre magazine before it was launched. I think the advert was headed “do you know lots of things about WEIRD STUFF?”, so that probably had something to do with it.<\/p>\n

I ended up going in for a meeting after a night of drum n bass, drunkeness, and boy\/girl crossed wires at PM Scientists. They were talking to me about running cover stories about Jon Bon Jovi’s belief in ghosts and I was talking to them about drum ‘n’ bass and occultism and zines and stuff. I think I was also preoccupied with the hangover and the boy\/girl futility the night before as well.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I somehow convinced the editors that what they needed for their dummy issue was an article about Satanic Techno<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I still have no idea if they ran with it, because after that it was the usual case of not returning calls. Which, on reflection, is probably fair enough.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
