Stab! by Go As DeatH
Stab! is an album dedicated to the Aesthetics of Murder, as filtered through the artificiality of the filmic lens. Gloaming purple-reds, luscious pinks, dream-state blues, the glint of light reflected off the metallic, smooth surface of a knife, and the pale reflection of an interior light source on a puddle of blood.
The morbid attraction of experiencing the intensity of murder vicariously continues to fascinate the human mind, and simulations of violence can satisfy and traumatize without the need for actual killing. The "safety" of screened-distance cracks and penetrates the psyche, the digital experience seeps into the crevices of an analog human brain. Analog editing--> Digital murder scenario.
