Whore Of Babylon
@abandoncrypt.bsky.social
This is the Bluesky home of the band Whore Of Babylon. The bastard offspring of an orgy involving the Sisters Of Mercy, Crass, The Prodigy and Mike Harding.

By the way: 'Nosferatu' (1922) is the greatest film ever made. This is not open for discussion.
Six tracks that once were lost but now are found. Exhumed and lovingly caressed back to some semblance of life. They're far from perfect - but that's par for the course.

David. The kind of brave warrior who gets his mum to knit his chain mail. Sleep soundly, people of Britain. You are protected.

It’s 18 years ago today that the attack took place in Stubbylee Park, Bacup, that took Sophie’s life 13 days later. We send love to Sophie’s family and friends and all that love her. Sophie is not just a figurehead or a banner we march behind; she was a person who should be here with us today.

Will a journalist please tell Trump (in a live interview) that he's been awarded a fellowship of the highly-prestigious Dunning-Kruger society?

He'd clearly take it as a great compliment, and it would make for wonderful television.

It goes without saying, but for the avoidance of doubt...

As a quick follow-on from yesterday's World Goth Day post, here's another one that fits the mood.

Whore Of Babylon is, and will always be, an ally to trans people wherever they are.

Well, it's safe to assume that we won't be getting into America any time soon.

Regardless of its position on the political spectrum, any government that makes shitbags like the KKK feel emboldened needs to have a serious fucking word with itself.

Man and woman go out in the rain carrying umbrellas.

This is a huge breaking news story, if confirmed.

A whole decade since El Grumpo found himself with a drum machine and some knocked-off music software.

'Fenland Gothic' is imminent, honest.

Happy New Year XXX

Eight years ago on this very day, 'Days With The Dead' was released.

This was a change of direction away from the more punky, electronic stuff and, as it turned out, a harbinger of the forthcoming 'Fenland Gothic' collection.

A free download, you can get it here:

Just as a matter of interest, who is your favourite Doctor?

El Grumpo has been a fan of the programme since he was a small person back in the early 1970s and genuinely doesn't have a preference because they're all wonderful.

There are no right or wrong answers to this question.

Die Todten Reiten Schnell - The Dead Travel Fast.

Another track from the forthcoming Fenland Gothic collection. It'll be finished eventually, honest.

Title track from the forthcoming 'Fenland Gothic' collection.
No idea when it'll be finished, obviously. Some of it isn't even written yet.
But in the meantime...

In the real world, if you leave a pub because everybody is screaming abuse, there are constant fights, and you get no service because the spoiled brat of a landlord too busy sucking up to Nazis... nobody accuses you of vanishing into an elitist echo chamber.

Same applies online.
