So thoughtful! After finishing 3 albums they renamed the project to GULAGGH. Deep commentary!) From my understanding the members are an anonymous collection of Dutch black metal artists or whatever and they use audio from patients in psychiatric hospitals. Per their page on Discogs: "According to interviews they used these vocalists because they wanted "the pain and hatred in the vocals to be real and not acted". They call their 'music': 'Misanthropik Nihilistik Audio-Terrror'" I don't think there's anything worth celebrating here, but the "authenticity" of it all really stuck with 14 year me. I remember showing it to a classmate in drama class once when he asked me for dark songs. He would lock himself in the janitors closet with the lights off blasting this on his ipod on repeat for at least 30 minutes on show nights to help him get into character (He played the devil in a 5 minute sketch about finding Jesus, his part of the sketch was like 45 seconds long, and his role had no lines)
