"There are no active words or sounds to get people to understand that Bomb a Lil Joy will hit just a little bit differently than whatever else they’ve listened to before, now, or in the foreseeable future, when music comes to you in a dream, like all of this came to Christian, it deserves a rendering that was/is also dreamlike … and with G-d as my witness, that’s precisely what I did.” — Eugene Robinson

SUBLIME CINEMA #537 - SIMON OF THE DESERT

Luis Bunuel took a certain glee in taking down the fanatics of the world; the rich and the powerful, and the religious and hypocritical. His movies alternated depending on his circumstance between Spanish, Mexican, French, effortlessly, though he never sold his own soul to make something he didn’t want to make. 

He also had a kind of personal axe to grind. Previous to Simon of the Desert, he made ‘Viridiana’ in his native Spain, which was so scandalous that he was actively persecuted by the Vatican, sending him in exile to Mexico. When he decided to produce this film there, you can guess who he most intended to piss off with it. 

I ask because once every few years I end up hunting for scary music, but it's hard to find since many people's idea of scary is aggressive noise or dark ambiance, which, more often than not, is the kind of thing I consider nice background noise.

I want psychological horror in audio form! I want to be stressed out! I want to be afraid to listen!

I mean, here's my personal top 3 of frightening albums:

1) The Vegetable Orchestra - ONIONOISE

A vegetable orchestra. They play music exclusively on vegetables. Sounds fun, and indeed some of the tracks are funky and easy to listen to, but each of them are separated by alien-sounding ambiance and screams from the pits of hell

2) Scott Walker - The Drift

I think it's widely agreed upon that Scott Walker's last three albums are terrifying. Apart from Scott Walker's own odd voice, lyrics, and compositions, The Drift features many things such as a donkey, a Donald Duck impression, and a dead pig being beaten

3) Buñuel - The Easy Way Out
