"PARIAH" Finished!!!

2012-01-17T07:45:00.000-08:00

After two weeks of intense and amphetaminic working, where anger was kissing passionately with a frustrating loneliness and an explosive dose of ideas (good ideas, at least), I am more than proud to announce than the next Testing Vault album "PARIAH", the first of the serie for this year, is finished and actually ready to be presented to various labels.

This work is a great step forward, and presents the new Testing Vault into the future, his special own. Beatnik music for the 21st Century, Sidereal Portraits Of Angus MacLise protecting these sounds. Anger, disillusion, bitterness, lunacy and despair rituals.

This is the Official Tracklist:

01 - All Teeshall OUT.

02 - Mammalia Tutched. Night Out.

03 - Orphans.

04 - Tialigh Patrol.

05 - Hypomania ii.

06 - Foggy Fur.

07 - Os Outro VEM.

Hello To Every Fan, Friend And Follower Of EAFMC!!!

It was from a long long time I haven't wrote down a word here, but after talking too much with idiots of other labels (I am honest to the bone when I say that FINAL MUZIK still one of the best labes here in the poor Italy), trying to make them listen to "Deeper And Deeper We Went In My Amigdala" and convince them to publish it, I just saw UNINTEREST in trying to TAKE A RISK and publish something of different. Cowards, that's what they are.

For this I WILL PRINT UNDER THIS EAFMC FLAG MY NEXT EFFORT - IT WILL BE OUT FOR THE UPCOMING AUTUMN. And a surprise will be out soon for all the Testing Vault's fans outta here!!!

In the meanwhile, I played a new song for Whitechapel St. next platter - definitely influenced by PIG and Foetus and "redneck music", you can find it here, where you can listen to it for free and eventually buy it:

http://testingvault.bandcamp.com/releases

Of course, in Bandcamp there are many unreleased things by Testing Vault, EAFMC, Citizen insane and Whitechapel St. you can find it this page for a real cheap price:

http://testingvault.bandcamp.com/

Plus, in SELF releasing my next album, you'll have also a PROFESSIONAL RELEASE OF THE COMPLETE SHIT EXORCISM INDIPENDENT MOVIE!!!

Of course, all the items will be signed and you can purchase them for a cheap price, as always, I take the money for print them again if they are successful and for a packet of cigarettes.

So, stay tuned, surprises coming soon!!!

2011-04-26T06:36:00.000-07:00

When I saw MySpace falling apart as a man fainting because of his "new image", despite his being an important network for music (which still active also in my case), and how many labels or netlabels fail to work as hard as I would want for promoting my albums (or other releases I never published for this as EPs and other things...), I choose to take many days of work and to open a space in BandCamp: you can buy OFFICIAL UNRELEASED MATERIAL for a low price and high quality, so please, spread the word about this:

http://www.testingvault.bandcamp.com

And please, spread the word and enjoy the music!!!, you will found a lot of Testing Vault material, plus Edgar Allan Fish Memorial Center, Whitechapel St. and Citizen insane!!! Every downloaded Track, EP, Single or Album will help me to print faster the next TV self-released album!!! To The Supporters There Will Be A Lot Of Suprises :)

Love Always,

Trademark Sound?

2011-02-28T03:01:00.000-08:00

For Years Testing Vault Has Been "Just" Another Industrial Project. I Was Trying To Create (Centering My Goal) A "Trademark Sound". And Indeed, You Can HONESTLY Understand When A Song Came From TV - A Thing That Few "Alternative" Bands Or Projects Have.

And When You Reach A Point When You Understand That You Can Do Everything And Your Musical Knowledge Permits You To Do Many Different Things To Mix Together, You Know You Can Do Everything Without Nothing To Lose.

The Trademark Sound Of Testing Vault It's His Creator And Only Songwriter. And This Will Never Disappear In Testing Vault. As Well As Fear, The Muse And Company of A Life In TV And In My Life.

So, Expect Spoken Words, Drums, Guitars, SONGS (Many Purists Will Be Shocked Reading This Word: SONGS, With A CHORUS MAYBE!!!), Concrete Music, Locked Grooves.

When You'll Understand That Isn't That great Being A "Cult", You'll Understand That You Can Do What The Fuck You Want. It's Your Path. Your Choices.

"Gotta Keep Moving - Just Keep Moving", As The Song Said.

So, I hope "... Amigdala" Will Be Published Soon By Someone. Because I've already Changed My Skin. It Will Be Noisy, Cinematic, Not Necessarily In Technicolor, But It Will Be Thrilling And Exciting.

Have A Nice Week,
dAMN-i

Testing Vault Next Record Finished

2011-01-24T09:10:00.000-08:00

"Secret Newsreel...

Prepare Communication."

Finally, after a period of six months where my mind was deteriorating dangerously, I can admit proudly that the next Testing Vault Full-Lenght is FINISHED.

I'm feeling empty and disturbed. It's not what you expect, for sure. It's a SPOKEN WORDS album... but with such a violent feeling, that will confirm the traditional TV's trademark. To me, it's like to hear a version of "The Laughing Torso" under methamphetamine.

The album will be called "Deeper And Deeper We Went In My Amigdala" (I know in english I should write "amygdala", but I didn't like how it's wrote, so I kept the italian way to write it), it will have a track featuring Doriandra Smith (from PICA and EXP) as singer, and 6 tracks for a total of 40-45 minutes.

There was a track called "Amigdala" that was recorded, as the others, almost in a live form (for this the sound of the entire platter will be much more vehement)... but some electricity strange events occours during these readings... I was reading one of my brainstorming exorcisms... the static electricity little noises are on the whole track, so have to erase this song away from the album... maybe it will be used as a ghost track, who knows it?

The tracklist is the following

01 - PRELUDE
02 - COLIMBLI SPACE
03 - THE GARRETT QUEEN (featuring Doriandra Smith)
04 - GRAY WIDOW SHIT
05 - THEY LOOP US
06 - HELP THE FEEBLE MINDED

Here Above You'll also have a preview of the Frontcover.

Whitechapel St. "Walking The Red Line" Release, EAFMC Bullettin & Related Shit.

2010-12-17T10:39:00.000-08:00

Oh, Hello to E-very-ONE...!
Here I am, one year older, 27 now, and one year... more... wise? Nah, unfortunately it's not my case!!!

After months I just messed up my life so badly, I'm writing to you all again, finally...

It was not an easy time for me, but let's go ahead and stomping the human shit we find ahead our road.

Whitechapel St. full lenght album is finished (you can hear how it sounds going to www.myspace.com/testingvault checking out the song and the little presentation video I realized for "GreyTruck") and, if I will see a torrent or some shit like that... well, I will release here a .rar file with the official graphic and high quality wav or mp3 files. If you have to download something, Goddamn, at least download it from the right source!!!

Seeing the lack of will from many label to work with new artist, release the music of a new project and/or band, I'm choosing to release here FOR FREE also the first official EDGAR ALLAN MEMORIAL FISH CENTER EP after the first EP "Dokument #1" released from Toxic Industries.
It will be a special release -with graphic included, that you will have to adapt, so you can have a good quality cd-r at least also if it's homemade- featuring Andi SexGang, Doriandra from EXP and Albireon!!!

Stay tuned...

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

"ROACHAREUS",
By dANi/ALvo, Of Testing Vault And EDGAR ALLAN FISH MEMORIAL CENTER.

Gidget Gein never made Art, or anything else, for his Gain. He was way too smart and disillused by The Industries of every kind for take the money and quit his cerebral, great, Artistic mess and his no-compromises natural attitude.

Money were just a thing we all need to live... but the books he loved and in which he gave his he-Art to use his images as a book-cover, the films where he just fit and he acted perfecly and naturally like a fish in fresh water (an actor that Mr. Lynch should have noticed), the things he wrote with bleak irony about life and death and everything else, the music he played filled with extreme melodies and often more extreme feelings, and so on... that were his, and OUR fresh air, his and OUR aim, his climax and OUR satisfaction, left him and us exhausted like two lovers after some good sex.

His Beauty, and above all, his Purity is so Visible in his Actions, in his Eyes, in every single action in his discs, his acting roles or his cameos, his writing, his Love for the extremes of Life...

During All His Life, the Boy, and then the Man, never lied, nor to himself yet to the public that was watching his constant Evolution, from musician to band leader, from a band leader to BagBoy (not an easy work to deal with, at all!), from this to The Complete Charachter and Artist that, alas, WAS Gidget Gein, aka Brad Stewart.

These iced eyes... well, they are not angry, or unhappy, or things like that... they look just... Bitter. They see the World as the wonderful mess that it is.

They haunt, hit and stab you on The Wall fastly as a panic attack, asking with a whisper: "do you really think this Art is not tied up with my Life?". And then, after the question these eyes leave you violently on the cold floor, making you feel empty, on the ground, shocked as raped, and... full of curiosity and excitement to discover more, about his Art and the Man that's behind.

That Eyes Leave You Simply The Strenght And Makes You Think That Was Absurd, If You Ever Done That, To Believe All The Lies Or All The Hate Ranting Of Marilyn Manson Fan(atic)s That Often Dissed Him Without A Cause.

The Man was a honest and kind eccentric, an Art Lover and an Art Maker, a Man that wanted to experience a thing like pick up dead bodies and working hard for years in that field using this as an inspiration... and much more.

He yelled "FUCK YOU" To the Conventional Business more than once. As many great people he admired, he has the same DNA, and will be remembered and he will influence us under our skin. Like a cancer, like a virus. Like he loved to influence people. Not directly, but with his individualism and the capacity to be brutally honest to say "use your brain!", his strenght to race alone between business monsters, with his little Universe on the shoulder. He never needed to make eclatant shit as many of the people he knew along the road for being extraordinary.

People like him are born to sign the time and influence and, in a long distance, the business. People like Him are another scar that The Hollywood Babylon's Whore will bring proudly on her face in the future, showing to people that there's much more interesting characters and stories behind the same major corporate Stars we all see.

He was a real "Bastard Son Genetic Mixture" between

Williams Seward Burroughs;

Kenneth Anger;

Andy Warhol... and in some way, I related also the man so close to

Rozz Williams;

Stop to read fastly, kill your distraction from this writing NOW, and try to recognise in your mind all these genial people's faces. Not Stars in the front of your screen, but in the background, influencing the society anyway, after years of hard work, research, experimentations, et similia.

You will find something about them all in these two iced eyes that will watch you in this website. The eyes of Gidget Gein.
And, just like them, his persona and Art, are here to stay.

You will not be forgotten at all, mr. BagBoy. Au Contraire, I really hope that your irony, your words, your moods, will be captured by the next generations, if they will be able to follow your conceptual wandering between the sublime and the horror, this infinite Ouroboros that, like a carousel, turn around creacking some old sad song.
All my love,
one of your bastard sons,
D.

EDGAR ALLAN FISH MEMORIAL CENTER,

dANi/Alvo’s M A N I F E S T O, 2010 E.V.

90 Ninety N I N E T Y
Years
Later
THE WORLD IS DEAD.
I think it’s fair to resume a topic they let go adrift, the Iron Age is here, and we need to stir things up, enter history books, scar them with bad taste, class, mood swings, veins and smiles, and let our kids understand how absurd those times have been. From this moment on, we want most of Absurdity to be emotionally ours and NO SOUND “Mood-ianic”, ideal word referring to an Art sublimated by the perfect connection of one’s mood facing Horror, or any feeling linked to the temporary loss of WHAT A LOVELY PUPPY Joy. Therapeutic Pain and Horror? Maybe. Aesthetic Horror and Pain? Maybe.

But NO Self-induced Pain, what a Horror!

Horror H O R R O R HORREUR = KEY WORD OF THE EDGAR ALLAN FISH
MEMORIAL CENTER.

Imagined Horror and QUITE IDIOT Physically Committed Horror by two figures:

The first, Man, wrote short stories and Legends. He committed Horror On The Soul. Horror is not free from laughs or possible auscultations, watch out and beware the Ogre.

The second, Man, ate little people and Souls. He committed Horror On The Body. This kind of Horror must be ridiculed with bad taste and auscultated to be exorcized, watch out and beware the one who became The Ogre.

Distinguish them.
Avoid Suicide.
Don’t suffer Horror, mime it, jeer at it.

Take your life back from the attics, don’t clean it, keep it dirty, spit it A HOLE covered by spider webs saliva archaic horror on the Secretariat of State, on Mental Hospitals, on Bankers. We Are Sincere Charlatans, wait for TROUBLE.
Let all works, written, painted, filmed, recorded, reflect all this and be created at the same time, with celerity, insanity, laughs, brown shoes and umbrellas in our mouths. With taste and the awareness that they can be missing, sometimes. Provoking is good, being idiot is not. Let’s destroy criticism once and for all, or let it avoid considering us as pathologic cases.

What we owe to Surrealists and, even more, to mister Hugo Ball, Antonin Artaud and Tristan Tzara, lively and passionately emerges from those lines; reading this, may them understand that their lesson will be learned, and interpreted following our taste and the cyclic nature of events that are repeating. We thank them and invite them to watch with us over this sea current, may it bring onshore precious and masticable shells.
Mental cannibalism is not forbidden, psychic vampirism is.
Mental and physical handicapped are always welcome, we’re not scared of rats or of attics or basements we live in. May the Edgar Allan Fish Memorial Center bring us all we are looking for: the shake, the move, the Checkmate, the rickety Psycho with screw teeth and repetitive arms, present avant-garde is stupid stupid stupid, Let’s study the past to obtain just a little mechanical with a rubber band dirty fruits that turn out juicy and not poisonous when washed, let’s try to dream of fishes on houses in chicken feet, even though Russia is far – no political implications-, let’s decide who’s gonna be it, let’s choose who will be surprised with the final result, let’s do our best to cheat sincerity, goodness, modern mankind.
Let it wake up!

The EDGAR ALLAN FISH MEMORIAL CENTER therefore offers and will offer old Turkish music, new 1920 avant-garde, no cats around, feel free to scream, blares to be seen and voices to be heard (tasty ones)…Post-DADAists and Post-Surrealists by mere time matters, Pre-Actionists, Maybe-Situationists and Shamans by aptitude, hot tiny lizards and screaming monkeys on an unbelievable Friday, these are your Carrots.
Briefly:
Whoever is recruited to take part in these operations will be welcome. And they will be already stuck in them, much to their regret, when reading this letter, they will find it already signed.

A Warm WELCOME by the Director,

EDGAR ALLAN FISH MEMORIAL CENTER,
M A N I F E S T O di dANi/Alvo, 2010 E.V.

90 Novanta N O V A N T A
Anni
Dopo IL MONDO E’ MORTO

Mi pare sia giusto riprendere un discorso lasciato andare alla deriva, l’Età Del Ferro è presente, e bisogna smuovere le acque, entrare nei libri di storia, lasciarci uno sfregio con cattivo gusto, classe, lunaticità, vene e sorrisi e far capire ai nostri pargoli quanto siano stati assurdi questi tempi. Gran parte dell’Assurdità, d’ora in poi, vogliamo che sia di nostra proprietà emotiva e NESSUN SUONO “Mood-ianica” (“Mood-ianic”), termine ideale che indica un’Arte sublimata dalla perfetta congiunzione del proprio umore di fronte all’Orrore o a qualsiasi sentimento che sia da collegarsi alla perdita momentanea della CHE AMORE DI CAGNOLINO Gioia. Dolore ed Orrore Terapeutico? Può Darsi. Dolore ed Orrore Estetico? Può Darsi.

Ma che NON sia Dolore Autoindotto, che Orrore!

Orrore O R R O R E HORREUR = PAROLA CHIAVE DELL’EDGAR ALLAN FISH MEMORIAL CENTER.

L’Orrore Immaginato e L’orrore Fisicamente Perpetrato ABBASTANZA IDIOTA
da due figure.

Il primo, Uomo, scrisse piccole storie e Leggende. Perpetrò L’Orrore Sullo Spirito. L’Orrore non è esente da risate od eventuali auscultazioni, guardatevi attorno fate attenzione all’Uomo Nero.

Il secondo, Uomo, mangiò piccole persone ed Anime. Perpetrò L’Orrore Sul Corpo. Questo tipo di Orrore deve venire deriso con cattivo gusto ed auscultato per venire esorcizzato, guardatevi attorno e fate attenzione a colui che divenne L’Uomo Nero.

Distingueteli.
Evitate il Suicidio.
Non subite l’Orrore, mimatelo, sbeffeggiatelo.

Riprendete la vostra vita dalle soffitte, non pulite, tenetela sporca, sputatela addosso UN BUCO coperta di ragnatele saliva orrore arcaico alla Segretaria di Stato, ai Centri di Igiene Mentale, ai Banchieri. Siamo Sinceri Ciarlatani, aspettatevi GUAI.
Che le opere scritte, dipinte, filmiche, sonore, riflettano tutto questo e siano create allo stesso tempo, con celerità, follia, risate, scarpe marroni ed ombrelli in bocca. Con gusto e la consapevolezza della loro mancanza in certi casi. Benone provocare ma non essere imbecilli. Che la critica sia distrutta una volta per tutte o che non si curi di noi come casi patologici.

Il debito verso i Surrealisti e, ancor di più, verso i signori Hugo Ball, Antonin Artaud e Tristan Tzara, è forte e vivace da queste righe; leggendole, che capiscano che la loro lezione sarà raccolta, ed interpretata secondo i nostri gusti e secondo la ciclicità degli eventi che si stanno ripetendo. Li ringraziamo e Li invitiamo a vegliare con noi su questa corrente marina, che porti a riva conchiglie preziose e masticabili.
Il cannibalismo mentale non è vietato, il vampirismo psichico sì.
Sono ben accetti i disabili mentali e fisici, non ci spaventano i ratti né tantomeno le soffitte o le cantine in cui viviamo, che l’Edgar Allan Fish Memorial Center porti a tutti noi quello che cerchiamo: la scossa, la mossa, lo Scacco Matto, il Pazzo sgangherato con denti di viti e braccia ripetitive, l’avanguardia attuale è stupida stupida stupida, studiamo il passato per ricavarne frutti appena meccanici con elastico sporchi che una volta lavati si rivelino succosi e non avvelenati, cerchiamo di sognare pesci sulle case nelle zampe di gallina anche se la Russia è lontana –niente implicazioni politiche-, facciamo la conta e scegliamo chi tra di noi rimarrà sorpreso di fronte al risultato finale, impegniamoci a dare del nostro meglio per truffare la sincerità, la bontà, l’umanità odierna.
Che si svegli!

L’EDGAR ALLAN FISH MEMORIAL CENTER propone e proporrà dunque vecchia musica turca nuova avanguardia del 1920, nessun gatto attorno, urlate pure, clangori che si vedono e voci che si sentono (gustose)… Post-DADAisti e Post-Surrealisti per mere questioni di tempo, Pre-Azionisti, Forse Situazionisti e Sciamani per attitudine, lucertoline calde e scimmie urlanti in un incredibile Venerdì, sono queste le vostre Carote.
In breve:
Chiunque sarà selezionato per prendere parte a queste operazioni sarà il benvenuto. E ci sarà già invischiato, suo malgrado, se leggendo questa lettera la trova firmata.

Un caldo BENVENUTO Dal Direttore,
