And this they call dog and that they call house,
here the start and there the end.
I worry about their mockery with words,
they know everything, what will be, what was;
no mountain is still miraculous;
and their house and yard lead right up to God.
I want to warn and object: Let the things be!
I enjoy listening to the sound they are making.
But you always touch: and they hush and stand still.
That's how you kill."
— Rainer Maria Rilke
The weather here has been grey and shitty all week. actually, for about two weeks, with a couple of bright, beautiful summer-like days tucked in between.
my grand plans have fallen short, but this is nothing new. during the last two weeks, i've been delayed in shipping a variety of orders for three primary reasons. the first is financially-oriented (what else is new?), and the second is far more logistical in nature; i had to order new supplies (polybags, blank cdrs and blank cassettes), and so have been prevented from producing several items. however, that issue has slowly begun to be remedied, as these items are already arriving piecemeal. the third reason is the fact that i had a paper due today for my HISTORY OF PHILOSOPHY class, and it was weighing very heavily and causing me immense stress to try to balance everything that i had to do. i handed in a pretty barebones rough draft today, but at least the bulk of that stress has been lifted. next week will prove to be far more productive than the past two.
that is not to say that i've been entirely idle during this time; two weeks ago i moved part of my recording setup to LAST STOP to put down vocal tracks for the love is nothing. release, and have slowly begun to get some material down. additionally, my friends in TOURNAMENT have selected a track on which they will be collaborating, and some work has already been done in that regard. unfortunately, the release is not yet ready to ship, but it's far closer than it's been before, and i hope to get things wrapped up as soon as possible.
i've also been able to work a bit on formulating parts of my live THEOLOGIAN set for the forthcoming tour in november. more on that below.

Some very exciting news: just this week, i confirmed that ANNIHILVS will have the singular pleasure of releasing the final vinyl ep by my friends VVLTVRE in the early part of 2011. this release will signal the label's transition from the cd format into vinyl, and will be exclusively distributed by CRUCIAL BLAST on vinyl and as a digital download. i'll post more news on this as it comes together.
_______________________________________
The THEOLOGIAN+ADERLATING preorder shirt artwork has been submitted and approved, so they should be in fairly soon. Mories has created amazing new artwork for the release.
_______________________________________
I am pleased to announce that preorders for the THEOLOGIAN+FOUR PI MOVEMENT release are now available:
FOUR PI MOVEMENT is currently the solo project of Greg Vaneck (PROMETHEUS BURNING), an improvisational modular noise/power electronics analog monster of heated low-end distortion and raging high-end shrieks. Shredded through the teeth of THEOLOGIAN, the material takes on a totalitarian aspect, crushing rhythms reminiscent of an army of death marching on your city to burn your children and rape your women.
FOUR PI MOVEMENT tshirt comes with a 60 minute cassette, featuring one side of exclusive material from FOUR PI MOVEMENT, and one side of collaborative tracks constructed by THEOLOGIAN using FOUR PI source material. Limited 40 copies.
