Enslaved by Owls is a one man project creating what could be soundtracks to psychedelic horror films that don't exist. However, this is much more than mere Goblin worship. His own description sums things up well: "Human Synth, Organ, Guitar, Drum Programming, LSD, Graveyards." EBO is frequently goofy, often spooky, and always off-kilter.
Force fed 13 hits of Black Pentagram Acid, stuffed into a coffin, and buried alive.
Snorting crushed werewolf bones (it feels similar to ketamine) in a cobwebbed mausoleum.
Trapped, paralyzed in the back of a hearse that is, for some reason, chasing after another hearse (or is it the same hearse?).
Alien mold spores invading your mucus membranes and exploding out your orifices.
Struck by a weird freezing moonbeam, transformed into an eternal statue.
If all this sounds intriguing, you've got your work cut out for you; Enslaved by Owls has released seven full lengths, all available on Bandcamp. There's no real best way to proceed with this strange body of work, so I've chosen III largely at random. Light some black candles, and let the otherness wash over you.
III - Trip the Light Phantasm (320)
