Iao Core is an experimental rock band formed in San Francisco in 1987. Far outside the mainstream (in terms of music and career path), they have released more than 20 albums, have a devoted worldwide following, and tour frequently. Their music touches on classical, electronica, industrial, speed metal with a distinctly experimental/avant-garde bent; The lyrics are in fact superb: out of such pockets light pours, conjuring spirits of an America both mysterious and obscene.

The Core issue 66 release event and Iao Core: “Live on the Pharm” CD Listening Party
Metaversal Media presents on Friday December 3
The Core issue 66 release event and
Iao Core: “Live on the Pharm” CD Listening Party
They are here. The Winter 2010 copies of the 66th issue of The Core. These gorgeous, hand made, investment quality art zines are limited to 200 copies of each issue. Each mag has a painting of an Enochian Angel by yours truly, Johannes Ayres, as it's back cover, so this will be the last time all 200 paintings can be viewed at the same time and anyone interested in picking out the painting they want gracing the back of their copy can do so.. This issue features : the Coming Insurrection (the infamous manifesto in it’s entirety, The Secret History of Oil, interviews with Siouxsie Sioux , Peter Carrol, and Alejandro Jawdorosky, Iao Core News, as well as a free CD of Iao Core’s live performance at Heather Farms Park in Walnut Creek this summer.
Friday evening, I will show you the process of production of the Enochian Angel Paintings, and you can view all 200 before they catch the four winds, and be the first to hear the new Iao Core CD (it's awesome). Celebrity guests will read excerpts from this issue, and Cash Hose will give a slide presentation/lecture on his recent trip to the Abyss …Will there be fireworks? No, there will not be fireworks, but there’s a young Christian girl (a bastard daughter of yours, if Reverend Glitch is to be believed) who will read from the Core for tips and cheese. You needn’t dress in any but the most perfunctory manner nor bring any crickets (there will be plenty of those!) and I myself will be wearing but a thin military camisole from the pelvic region upwards and may be toting a gecko or two.
This event is free of charge and will take place from 7:00 to 10:00 p.m. in the Grand Ballroom of the Historic Merritt Lodge, 2332 Harrisson in Oakland, California, which may or may not be the arsehole of the universe, but one thing is certain: Art of this almost other-worldly nature could not be created within the confines of the civilized world. It is Art that pleads a kind of lost divine madness a its guiding inspiration. the center will make itself known to those who will be a part of it there and who will find their way there and those who are to be a part of it in another location will also respond to the gravitational pull of Love in evolution, embracing the death of the false, for the endless perpetuation of the real, via the mysterious process of change, which is the dance performed by that which is immortal in us …and is the perceptible part of the divine in demonstration of it.

I JUST WENT to Petco today and got Urrow a dopzen crickets to chase around and kill and eat, since cats get bored being pillows and tired from all that soulsaving (especially Urr) and I could see she was bored as hell and though I dunno the exact date her birthday was in January or early February 2008 so today we celebrated it and I gave her a pot of catnip, a mouse that electronically squeaks, bits of my expensive damn sushi and the CRICKS which she went at for hours on end and wore herself down to a very sleepy sweet little evil carnivore who loves to kill crickets, roaches and mice, the latter two unavailabled by our trusty exterminator brigade. thus Operation Jiminy went into effect at last after promising her for months.
ReplyDeleteThen I come here and see this and it's got absurd sudden decontextual crickets mentioned.You have to come to my stupid ugly but independent-life-sustaining building and meet Urrow. She's part Reerow, part Waa and part Verver. Tell me if I am wrong.
PS: Something I got to tell you in private so the fascists at [redacted] won't notice; I left you an opening to create (better yet get someone else to) a IAO CORE page on the most accessed site on the web other than Google...
But you have to call me or email me in private or it can't happen, and I'll explain how. This got screwed up when I did it for our project without knowing wtf I was doing; not entirely sure I do, still, but know what NOT to do.
You want to do this. BTW did you hear the IAO sound files I sent to you yet? Say no and I'll get Choronzon to follow you around for 96 hours making you keep thinking you might fall off the earth if you walk too crookedly on sidewalks, or think trees are sticking their 1000 tongues out at you just by growing leaves, etc, yer basic harmless but annoying mindfuckery.
