    J.G Ballard's Interests
Music

"When I was a young child in Shanghai, during the Thirties, I was given a gramophone and that one record. I loathed it until I was about 50. Now I could listen to it forever. The song holds all the mystery and magic of childhood, and I can't get enough of it!"

NEW BOOK OUT NOW:
Chthonic Prose & Theory
by Vadge Moore
 
"Vadge Moore is an American author and musician that has spent a lifetime testing the boundaries of good and evil. He toured and recorded with the infamous sleaze-punk institution The Dwarves, apocalyptic rock group Neither-Neither World, and his own nihilist-noise unit Chthonic Force. He has written for the early nineties occult journal Primal Chaos, the esoteric magazine Dagobert's Revenge, and the controversial web 'zine Synthesis. Recently Vadge has taken up an aphoristic-prose style of writing that best expresses his iniquitous and sinister insights into the mind of Man. Chthonic: Prose & Theory is just that; prose wedded to theory that scrutinizes the human, all too human, Monster that is Man."
"Chthonic: Prose & Theory" is a collection of perverse and violent prose wedded to his own brand of occult esoterica. Peer into the mind of one of America's greatest living libertines.
