SUPERLATIVE SOLSTICE! The solstice is upon us and, as kin to the rest of Earth’s species, we feel at one with the cycling of the seasons on this beautiful planet that is our home. Some Satanists might feel alienated by parts of the holiday hubbub promoting Christianity, yet heathen trappings have long been the dominant décor. It is fact that the Christians lifted this holiday from the pagans, as Pope Julius I in the mid 300s inserted their pallid, mythical savior into prior earthy traditions which they failed to supplant. Jolly round and white-bearded Santa Claus, who has come to […]

Prometheus is pleased to announce this release of his unconventional little hip-chop/death rap project Der Torso. The brand-new track Stück-Werk is inspired by the dark myths surrounding Winter Solstice and the Krampus. In der Schwärze der Krampusnacht schlägt der Torso machtvoll zurück und verkündet seine dunkle und angseinflößende Interpretation der unter der Oberfläche schlummernden unheilvollen Legenden, die die Wintersonnenwende und die Figur des Krampus umranken. Stück-Werk steht stellvertretend für den vom Torso geprägten pechschwarzen Hip-Chop/Death Rap. Der Torso on cdbaby

Speak of the Devil presents Third Side Intelligence. This month, Reverend Campbell is being joined by Aura DeWolfe and Aden Ardennes to discuss toxic masculinity. We will be joined as usual with an Enlightened Perspective from Citizen Patrick DeMarco and some thoughts from D.A. Marshall. Is toxic masculinity a reality? If so, is there toxic femininity? If gender identities are deeply held ideas, can behaving within the constraints of that identity ever be considered toxic? We will explore where the term comes from, what it is used for, and what it actually means. Sign Up to the Email List Subscribe […]
“Vodka!” Here’s a new show that was recorded several months ago and has sat festering in the MBR archives awaiting to receive a bloody good editing. Well, that’s just what it got because the boys were somewhat drunk on this one (except Bob, coz he’s a swot) as they had been recording an episode previously to this. And obviously beer was involved. Dave, Kent and Swotty Bob bring a selection of submitted bands, and a few tracks of indulgence, while Mark does his business in the middle of the show. Hopefully one of the lads brought a mop and bucket. […]

We’ve noted that some secularists in Nebraska have decided to combat their local Adams County Board of Supervisors’ decision to post a sign with the vapid slogan “In God We Trust” in the county courthouse by offering an alternative sign which would list our founder Anton LaVey’s text for “The Eleven Satanic Rules of the Earth.” Now, that initial slogan was pasted on to U.S. paper currency in 1957 and was intended as a rebuttal to what was perceived as the threat of “godless communism.” As Satanists who understand that all deities are myths, to us it is an empty […]
