When it comes to Locus Toybox the Artist says it Best in Their Own Words: “My name is David Firth, I make all sorts of things like cartoons and pictures and music. This is my main solo music project. I start up different projects all the time, but this is one I keep coming back to. It’s a mixture of real instruments, samples and synth. I try and keep it as organic sounding as possible. I don’t know if you can dance to Locust Toybox, but you’re welcome to try.”

Description by David Firth: Salad Fingers is 20 years old so here is a special episode revisiting where it all began. In the original 2004 style.

Flying Lotus: “Ready Err Not”

While Searching the Internet for Strange, Unusual, Odd, Creepy, Disturbing, and Down Right Traumatizing Content Stumbled Across the Music Video for Flying Lotus’s “Ready Err Not” and was Instantly and Intensely Interested. The Trippy Soundtrack was Trance Inducing while watching the Accompanying Array of  Graphically Violent Imagery Play Out on the Screen. Honestly We have a Goddamn Clue Wtf the Song or Video are Actually About We just Know We get a Real Big Kick Out of It. A Surreal Song and Gore Driven (and Bloodsoaked) Graphics what the fuck is there Not to Love?!

                   

Steven Ellison, known by His Stage Name Flying Lotus or Sometimes FlyLo, is an American Record Producer, Musician, DJ, Filmmaker, Songwriter, and Rapper from Los Angeles, California. He is also the Founder of the Record Label Brainfeeder.

In 2006, while Visiting His Mother’s House, Ellison saw an Advertisement on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim Programming Block asking for Song Submissions. Ellison decided to Submit a Few of His Songs , Under the Name Flying Lotus (a Moniker Inspired by Lucid Dreaming) and His Songs were Accepted by Adult Swim.

Around this Time, Ellison was Interning at the Pioneering Hip Hop Label Stones Throw Records, and Released His Debut Studio Album called 1983 on October 3, 2006. The Album helped Ellison develop His Eclectic Creative Mission, Forging Compressed, Experimental, Spacey, Electronic, Jazz Rap, and Eastern sounding Hip Hop Beats.

Ejoy.

Suicidal Rap Orgy: Originators of Australian Brutal Horrorcore

Well Considering We have Done a Posts on the Horrorcore Musician Passenger of Shit and The Horrorcore Rap Group Butchers Harem it made sense to do a SUICIDAL RAP ORGY (SRO) Post. Especially since Butchers Harem Rose out Ashes of SRO’s Demise. Also SRO is one of a Number of Musical Projects (like Passenger of Shit, MC BushPig’s Solo Shit, and Butchers Harem) by Australian Underground Music Icon Swift Treweeke.

Suicidal Rap Orgy was a Musical Collective Founded by Swift Treweeke aka Mc BushPig in His Native Australia in 2001. Suicidal Rap Orgy is considered the First Example of Brutal Horrorcore which Elevated Horrorcore to a Whole New Brutally Gruesome Level of Violent Depravity. SRO’s Lyrics are Comprised Primarily of Extreme Gore, Brutally Violence, and Pornographic Themes or Imagery. The Band mixes Elements of Hip Hop, Porno Grind, Brutal Australian Horrorcore, Industrial Rap, and Porno Rap.

 

The Band was Notorious for Their Rowdy,Raucous, and Disgusting Live Shows that built them a Loyal Cult Following. Their Live Shows involved Nudity, Having Sex with Toy Animals, Masturbating on Stage, Swinging around Various Weapons, Anal Penetration with Microphones, and Aggressively getting in the Audiences  Face. During Their Career of Obscenely Offensive and Riotous Concerts SRO Recorded Only a Single Record Titled Genital Warfare. Overtime SRO slowly Evolved into BUTCHER HAREM consisting of MC BushPig and MC Cumblood featuring Other Members of SRO. Fans of SRO were Delighted when SRO returned once again to the Musical World of Brutal Horrorcore with November 30, 2017 with the Music Video “Manic Psycho” (The Official Video is Posted Below).

Suicidal Rap Orgy Group Members Include:

  • MC BushPig (aka MC SCATBUTCHER, aka MC Poodick, aka Passenger of Shit)

BUTCHERS HAREM: Brutal Australian Underground Horrorcore

After Posting the Passenger Of Shit Video For Staple Tapeworms To My Penis it seemed fitting to do a Follow Up with BUTCHERS HAREM.

Butchers Harem is a Underground Australian Brutal Horrorcore Rap Group that mixes the Influences of Goregrind and Horrorcore Lyrics over Heavy and Distorted Hip Hop Beats. The Group was formed in Outer West of Sydney in the Blue Mountains as a Music Collective featuring MC Bushpig (aka ScatButcher), MC Cumblood, MC Slurry, The Woundbearer, MC Twot, and MC Mangia (aka The Anal Executioner). The Group officially formed in 2004 and the project was formed from the Remnants of the Infamous Suicidal Rap Orgy which MC Bushpig had founded in 2001. MC Bushpig  whose Real Name is Swift Treweeke has the Distinction of Holding the Title as the “Godfather of Brutal Horrorcore.”

           

Butchers Harem was the Premier Australian (as well as New Zealand) to Produce this Type of Unconventional, Highly Aggressive, and Obscenely Brutal Style which gave Birth to a Uniquely Influential Australian Version of Horrorcore Music (Often referred to as “The Brutal Australian Sound”). The Group mad a Large Impression on the European Scene Opening the Door to Multiple Tours of Holland, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Belgium, and Greece.

Mc CumBlood    

In 2008-2009 after Recording the Still Unreleased Album X Rated Puppet Theatre of the Dead most of the Group’s Members Quit. In spite of the Set Back in 2011 Mc Bushpig and MC Cumblood released the First Butchers Hrem Album Snuff Porn Gore on Butchers Harem Productions. Currently the Group is Recording Their 3rd Album Erotic Stories Written in Blood Though MC Bushpig/Butchers Harem haven’t done a single Interview since February 2015). So You can Expect to Hear New Levels of Brutality and Vomitous from the Australian Masters of Horrorcore Music.

(NOTE to Reader/Listeners: Brutal Horrorcore (also known as Gore Rap or Australian Horrorcore is the Bastard Offspring of Horrorcore Music which Mixes Styles of Brutal Death Metal (a Subgenre of Death Metal) and Hip Hop. The Sound Features Death Metal Growling Vocals with Production Elements of Horrorcore, Devil Shyt, Hardcore Techno, Breakcore, and Noise Music. Brutal Hardcore Lyrics are generally Much More Extreme Subject Matter than Older School Horrorcore, and Their Album Covers are Extremely Sexual, Bloody, or Violent reminiscent of the Typical Death Metal Album Art.)

Awesomeness

I haven’t written a blog in such a long time. Well at least it feels like it.

I want to talk about the show that I went to last night. Wow, what an awesome show. Probably one of the top 3 shows I have ever been too if not the top show. Oh, what did I see???

Nine Inch Nails and Jane’s Addiction, baby!!!!!!!

I am still on this natural energy rush after seeing it. It was everything I expected and more. Even the opening band Street Sweeper Social Club (who I never heard before last night) was pretty rockin’. A bit more hip hop mixed in but it probably was the best opening act I have ever since. I have seen some real shitty opening acts in the past ranging from Jack Off Jill to Nate Mathesen to really horrible bands at local shows that are too countless to remember.

I really can’t quote the whole set list for NIN, I’m sure you could look it up somewhere on the web,  but was really excited when they played Physical and well Head Like a Hole they closed with that was kinda expected.

I really really wanted to go to more shows, I could have tonight in Holmdel, I’m sure they probably had a few more lawn seats, but I had to get up ass early in order to get MORE concert tickets. And I am completely and utterly wiped out at this moment.

I may have to get MORE tickets later this week but anyway back to the show.

Jane’s Addiction was everything I expected and more as well. I really never got into them as much as NIN, but after hearing them at the show, I’ll probably throw a few of their songs onto my MP3 player, since my player is a complete and utter disaster. I got really drunk one night and downloaded like 100-150 songs and well that explains a whole lot of the crap on there.

I knew more of their music then I thought actually. It was all coming back to me and well I haven’t had this much fun in a while. Going to see a whole bunch of Tori Amos shows doesn’t compare to music like this. This is my first love. She is just a mistress. I don’t always feel a rush with her. Only in the second row of the opening show last tour.

This show I was in the lawn and felt a rush. I would have given my left nut to be in the pit. Anyway I’m done rambling now…. May actually make a few CDs for my car now so I can drive somewheres with the gas I don’t actually have. Hmmmmmm maybe I can huff gas???? Didn’t they do that shit in the 70s? I was born in the 70s, does that mean it is an inate ability? I dunno.
