Joker - Swallowed Whole Promo. (Dark Soulless Ambient, Dead Anti-Music, Noise)

"They are at it again...."

This is a little promo for an album that I've been working on for quite sometime. An album that I would like to say has the most cheerful and joyful music I've ever heard but this is not the truth. This album has some of the warped and darkest music I've ever heard in my life. I know that may sound strange coming from the person who created it, but I am not trying to lie. But truthfully, the entire thing just has this loathsome vibe to it, like the entire album has some curse hanging over itself. You just can't seem to shake the music, the imagery, the entire overall experience and warped atmosphere from your mind once you endure the whole thing from beginning to end.

Which if I may, I'd like to recommend this album to be listened either by yourself or with some friends (who hopefully are into this music as of you) with all the lights turned off and the blinds shut unless you want to listen to it in a very unfitting setting and atmosphere as of outside with the sun shinning and the birds chirping and also with children laughing in the background behind the fence in your backyard. Do you even realize what kind of picture I am trying to paint of how dark and twisted I think of this album I've made? In my opinion, it's sort of the ultimate music (however this may be argued or overruled.) to end your life to or to conjure up some sort of entity that is entirely evil to the core such as a demonic spirit or something else that isn't even from the likes of hell.

This album was released on Cassette in January 1st (New Years Day), 2009 by Moribund Tree Records. The artist states that he lives in Illinois. If that is actually true, then he and I are from the same state. ;)
I just looked up the bizarre word, "Moribund", and I found it's meaning.
Much thanks to Google, who immediately places the definition of most words right below the search bar. To be honest, I had never heard of this word before, nor knew what it meant. So to save everybody some like what―5 seconds? I will just tell you the definition right here.

Mor-i-bund /ˈmôrəˌbənd/ [Mawr-uh-buhnd, mor-]
Adjective
1. (Of a person) At the point of death.
2. (Of a thing) In terminal decline; lacking vitality or vigor.
―――――――――――――――――――――――
1. In a dying state; near death.
2. On the verge of extinction or termination.
3. Not progressing or advancing; Stagnant.

Word Origin/History:
1721, "about to die," from Fr. moribund (16c.), from L. moribundus "dying," from mori "to die" (see mortal). Fig. sense of "near an end" is from 1837.

Information about this artist (taken from his page on Last.fm):

'Nagasaki Grotesque is a noise ambient project. Founding member A describes the project’s output as “dead anti-music” or “soulless ambient.” The titles and artwork of Nagasaki Grotesque frequently refer to World War II, and specifically the human impact. More recent works have moved toward philosophy and ritual works." -Last.fm

Such notes as for some of his albums frequently referring to World War II can be acknowledged by his album, "BURN THE CITY". The front cover for this album is a real and famous photograph that shows the severe effects of radiation on a Nagasaki/Hiroshima Atomic bombing victim. As you can see for this poor person: since after the bomb was dropped on those two cities, his skin had begun to fall off and melt away as if it had been turned to jelly. I just couldn't imagine all of the pain and suffering Japan had to endure in the aftermath of this abominable turn of events that would give America the heedless freedom and happiness of finally winning WWII. Disgusting...
