Pretty pleased w/ our poster game for NOX. Paying homage to a golden age of occulture from which we still draw a great deal of strength and inspiration. Next instalment is 23rd October - poster coming soon! Imagery from Stephen Sennitt (1), Andrew Chumbley (2,5), Peter Smith (3), Maria Strutz (4).

Lords of Chaos #1 & #2 (1977). Strong use of chaos star imagery some years before it would really be planted in every RPG and occult geek's consciousness...

Microsoft wants to build three massive AI data centres in Leeds. It’ll drain thousands of litres of water from the River Aire and become the city's biggest carbon emitter. We can still stop the council's final sign-off, but we need more voices. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

1979: some LAFS - live action fantasy skirmishing - as these young warriors come together to play a life-size version of Melee. I am sad enough to think this is very cool... not a mobile phone in sight, etc. (from Space Gamer ca. 1979/80)

How many game designers blew up their careers with 'real life treasure hunts' in the 1980s?! Has it become a cliché yet? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treasur...

Meanwhile, does anyone want to form a crust punk band called KILLER BUSHES? (image: The Dungeoneer zine, ca. 1977?)

Last few copies availbele of this weird set of semi-improvised pieces made with my buddy Borehole. Somewhere skirting around the dungeon synth, dark ambient, experimental, martial industrial, drone areas... whatever it is, it was fun to record anyway! :D blaggardrecords.bandcamp.com/album/dark-v...

New release, a collab with my friend Borehole. Taking in blackened dungeon synth, discordant doom, and celestial choirwork. Central track is a strange improvisation that might sound like Essoupi meets Coil... a few copies of the tape remain! blaggardrecords.bandcamp.com/album/dark-v...

A surprisingly varied compilation of northern dungeon synth. Faves are Clod's Gryphon-esque prog folk, Asuna's melancholic old school feels. It is an honour to also be in the same company as Trollman av Ildtoppberg! fangornds.bandcamp.com/album/northe...

An incredibly beautiful ambient album with a good dose of grit and grain by Leeds' Gareth S Brown (formerly of Hood). Puts me in mind of something like Daniel O'Sullivan's Music for Ark Todd, or Transept. soundinsilencerecords.bandcamp.com/album/red-fi...

I feel this is an immensely pleasing tape. Starts off sort of dungeon synthy, but by track 4 has started evoking Coil. Very listenable working music of late. fearofbaptism.bandcamp.com/album/bonecr...
