To preface, I know of Michael Gira. I know of Swans. I know the purpose of this book was to be gross and disturbing or whatever. It's art or something. I get it. I love extreme horror and splatterpunk. Dead Inside by Chandler Morrison is one of my favorite books. But this didn't feel like it was fulfilling it's purpose or whatever. It was poorly written and just felt like something and edgelord would put out. Dare I say the writing style felt a little bland. I may try this again in the future but as of right now I see no point in trying to continue.
