of risk capital was the earth created of his blood, the sea of his bones, the hills of his hair, the trees and the plants of his skull, the heaven the one is nitre the one is acid nothing is more precious than the red sand of the sea the one is spirit this is the father this is the universal agent primordial sulphur you are the void the emptiness that fills the sky fire and air cry among the deepening shades chalybs sendivogii the hammer sulphur naturae the other is salt. the other is alkaline the other is the body the homeless one turns back to mossy forests soils of forested warm-temperate and tropical regions the blue stillness of the olive tree this is the mother this the universal patient primordial mercury and salt the magnet the anvil mercury and salt naturae leave us not to our own darkness and our own science deliver us from all evil through the perfection of your work amen

to the south, we discover the soil worm and the heath worm. to the east, we find the grave wolf and the grey back. to the west, we find the gravedigger and the twister. and not surprisingly, in the middle, we find the killer. the sons of revolt will never rise again. let the fountain of a bleeding heart be our quickening consolation, renovation, and eternal life. the serpent dips her head beneath the sea. look on that fire, salvation walks within. everything must unfold in secrecy. meaning is always disastrous. as if through a valley of harsh, bloody rocks, an immense river flows with doves of steel and hope. blood burns like fire. magmas and deep-seated fluids hell's flower blossoms purple in the heart. metasomatism and melting the pain in which the world passes remains attached to the moment. mineral reconstitution vanishing of the horizon bodies of shadows and blind eyes like pearls we drift, disappear, towards final darkness? or new worlds? or endless light?

SIDE-LINE REVIEW
AutopsiA – Public Lesson In History (Album – AutopsiA)
Genre/Influences: Industrial, Cinematic.
Format: Digital.
Background/Info: This new work by the legendary AutopsiA collective has been conceived for an AutopsiA exhibition which took place earlier this year. Six tracks have been composed and performed together with the Dämmerung Orchestra.
Content: Both debut cuts bring us back to early Industrial Experiments during the 80s which reminds us that AutopsiA were part of this ‘Industrial music revolution’. Quite progressively the work moves into more familiar Cinematic fields which have been often experimented by AutopsiA during the past years. The album features multiple spoken/narrative parts taken from ChatGPT and the work of Bertolt Brecht, Karl Marx, Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim.
+ + + : The debut part of the work sounds phenomenal, getting the listener back in the early days of 80s Industrial music. The Industrial, metallic sound treatments together with orchestral arrangements and narrative passages to me evoke the great Industrial music from the 80s. “The Book Of Elements” invites the listener to embark for a trip of more than 20 minutes and definitely sounds like a masterpiece. The next cuts bring Cinematic music which is another side of the project but still featuring captivating passages driven by intriguing speeches.
- - - : I honestly regret AutopsiA haven’t compose a fully Industrial opus. I think it would have brought the early spirit of Industrial music alive which is a lost sensation today.
Conclusion: Genius retro-Industrial music mixed with intriguing Cinematic stuff.
Best songs: “The Book Of Elements”, “Of Risk Capital Was The Earth Created”, “The Factory Sermon 2”.
