A tiny moment of pleasure…
Coresect – The Matrix of Lies
Where does the truth end, and the lies begin?
Coresect – Encephalitis Lethargica
People just “fell asleep”, went into a catatonic state, and many never came back.
Coresect – A Beautiful Machine
He’s called Merlin.
Coresect – Entwined
Entwined – linked together, tied as one, forever to be linked like orbiting moons.
Coresect – A Bold Attempt
Always wary of AI, I used it to create a programme to make videos for my music. I put in my logo, the photos I want to use, and the text I want to appear on the video. The effects I took ideas from my youth. If you want the code just ask, I’m happy to share.
Some Rough Tracks
As I’m about to upgrade my computer I thought I’d put some hoarded material online. Rough and ready (probably). Five to start with and many more to come.

Little Quiz About Your Favourite Industrial Band
So, back in the early 90s I was part of an organisation setting up tours and concerts in Italy and Rome. Some of your favourite industrial and EBM bands passed through. Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen… Which band am I speaking about today?
Their singer stayed in a hotel with one star more than the rest of the band members – as per the contract…
The rider included an ice-making machine to be available in the band’s changing rooms at all times. Failure to provide one would see the concert cancelled. It wasn’t easy but we found one – they didn’t use it. I suspect it was a “bowl of M&Ms with brown ones removed” moment. Still, it was a bit annoying.
Video: The Oldest Goth Club in the World: Slimelight
Nothing quite like it, though back in the day I rather liked Wraith, a more industrial goth version and less punk. There were times back at the start of the 90s when Slimelight would start to get heavy at 4 in the morning and I’d be weighing up a nightbus home. Wraith on the other hand had enough to keep me interested until sun up and a bleary tube train home.
We Lie and We Cheat
We are men of the millennium
We lie and we cheat
We can’t find our way
So we use who we meet
There’s nothing we can’t do
Nothing we can’t take
So we’ll eat you
Steal what we can’t make
Pollute what is pure
Rape all we find
Taking from the poor
Stealing from the blind
Time has made us cruel
We feel so strong
Hatred is our fuel
Our reason is so wrong
Nothing we can’t do
No one we can’t hate
We can’t turn back
It’s just too late
Reaching for stars
Crippled by fear
Falling to Earth
Our time is near
