Endless Punishment by Weasel Walter / Rick Eye / Adios From Everywhere

"I was supposed to come down to Texas a few years ago and perform at a festival. For this occasion, it was specifically requested that I DO NOT play the drum set. The programmer wanted something along the lines of my 2016 nightmare-scape "Curses", i.e. my electroacoustic percussion and electronics bag. Fine! When it came time, I met up with my Vomitatrix bandmate and peer, Rick Eye down in Denton, and we had some fun doing gigs as Destiny Fuck (with Reece McLean) and I wound up sitting in with Flesh Narc, since neither of their two drummers could make it.

One lazy afternoon, me and Rick set up our respective rigs and went nuts. The audio here documents our uncensored psychic vomit, me on my arcane sundries, and him processing his guitar through a synthesizer in real time. I did the gig and flew home. I forgot about this recording (as I forget lots of things these days), but saw a lot of potential when I revisited it. It is a vile, sluggish horrorscape of irritating dark mass. It's hard to tell what's what, but I assure you it's all very primitive and done in real time. That's just how we roll.

I was finishing up the mix in January 2024, when all of a sudden, someone under the moniker "Adios From Everywhere" approached me and asked if in wanted to collaborate on some multimedia? When I saw the samples, I was sold, and I knew exactly what to propose. The blisteringly terrifying images you see on the album artwork, as well as the accompanying video work are a perfect match. If I could externalize the music we made, this is exactly how it would look and feel. I feel lucky that AFE took the chance to reach out, and that I got first dibs. The images push this project straight over the edge of the cliff, straight down into oblivion.

Viva la muerte!!!!"
