The King in Yellow

by Ah Pook the Destroyer

supported by

Mladen "Oh, it's so beautiful!"

Here I go obsessing again. Unlike anything Paul Shapera created before, yet so uniquely, blatantly Shapera.

I absolutely adore this album for everything it is.

Paul's vocals are as awesome as ever and I loved every line Matthew Broyles sang. Favorite track: The Seeds of Mammon.

fezman An in depth Floydian exploration of how and why people fall into conspiranoia.

The King in Yellow is truly a great work of horror not for the alien gods but for how people so scared of their own insignificance that they need any order even evil order to save them from Chaos. Favorite track: Time Cube.
