Lustmørd – Lustmørdekay (Live Evil) [Cass] (1982, Sterile Records)

Lustmord, the solo project of Welsh artist Brian Williams, is often credited as the creator of the post-industrial genre known as dark ambient. His bleak, disturbing music often utilizes field recordings, deep bass frequencies, and ritualistic instrumentation, such as Tibetan horns. Initially associated with the industrial scene during the early '80s, when he was a member of SPK, he established his signature sound with releases like 1986's 'Paradise Disowned' and 1990's particularly groundbreaking 'Heresy'. 

This is an incredible document of early industrial music. It's a great mix of hypnotic tribal percussion, electronic experimentations, and mischievous vocal samples. All couched in a mist of early 80s tape hiss...or is that a leaking steam pipe in the warehouse basement studio? It's very successful at creating an evocative sonic experience. Reminds a bit of Gerechtigkeits Liga, and early Current 93. [SOURCE: DISCOGS]
