Post-apocalypse Portal (formerly Experimental Asylum) is an occult influenced musical project that was born from the madness and destruction of hurricane Katrina. The artists were scattered across the world. Ideas about what a band should be were stripped away along with possessions, identities, relationships, and sometimes, sanity.
The participants in the Katrina experiment returned home, one by one, with the shards of their shattered realities packed into guitar cases and M-Audio boxes. They found each other again and began to have group therapy sessions together.
It quickly became clear that the storm had opened a howling time/space portal from New Orleans to another dimension . Those who had the skills could see it was imperative to learn as much as possible about where the gate goes, and to find out what has been nonchalantly walking through it into our world.
Now, in the post-Apocalyptic setting of the Big Not-As-Easy-As-It-Used-To-Be, aided by the forces of Love, Darkness, and Chaos, an asylum has been created to study this gaping hole between parallel dementias, and to offer a delicious, piping hot cup of green tea to the Archdemons and Shoggoths that come through for a visit.
In the year 2094 a qweebo huffing contest in Owl Creek Colorado shall be interuppted by a world changing announcement. General Blark Shwartzkoph over CNN shall proclaim these words "The existence of a communications blocking force field in outer space has been proven. It is powered by tiny asteroid like rockballs floating around the moon and Uranus. It uses ultra inconcievable frequency abnormalities to inhibit the use of our space exploration devices. The US army in conjection with the establishment of its control used master sequences with spherical transponder explosives to destroy these devices. It was then discovered that outer space is only 1.6 million miles across. The perception that the universe was infinite and expanding must have been produced by these strange force fields. We are now sending a manned mission to the edge of the universe perhaps to discover who or what has put us here on earth. Thank you goodnight. Hail Narblarp!" When the astronauts get to their destination at the edge of time the world shall realize its true purpose. An interdimensional being named *}= shall broadcast these words "Humanity thank you for coating the earth in plastic, concrete, and smog. We shall now take all 3 of these substances from you to fuel our interdimensional portal creator. You shall be releaved of your lives. Praise *}= ." The world shall then divert destruction through the powers of Lurkjerk Ferguson and his omnidimentional universe locking proto-nuclearizations, but that is another prophecy for a completely differnt time. Take heed of these words that I hath spoketh onto thee, for they concern the future of all humanity!
Prophecy of 7/10/06 entitled-
The Surgical Implantation Fad Prophecy of 2027
In the year 2027, piercing fads across the globe shall be replaced by the surgical implantation of various living animal parts. Where once there were tongue rings, there shall be giant squid tentacles. Where once there were earrings there shall be koala ears. And so on and so forth. These collectable appendages will be easily detachable and many shall be hypnotized by the vast assortment of different choices available. This fad will continue until the year 2053 when the invisible Lord of Veganism unleashes his unholy wrath upon appendage obsessed culture by simultaneously fusing all animal products to the wearers body through an elaborate scheme involving wheat germ factories, 47 thousand gallons of leech blood, and the fragrant perfume used in the making of Pert Plus shampoo. I must apologize, for the exact details of this scheme lay in the outer reaches of the astral plane, and I do not yet possess the powers to fully absorb the intricacies of this great knowledge. Take heed of these words that I hath spoketh onto thee, for they concern the future of humanity!!!
