Rudimentary Peni / Cacophony -early 80s hardcore Lovecraft

Erich Zann · Post by **Erich Zann** » Mon May 15, 2006 9:13 am

Anyone ever hear Rudimentary Peni's concept album, Cacophony? It's a rare treat for those who dig heavy music and Lovecraft. With songs like; Nightgaunt, The Horrors In The Museum, The Dead Loved, Arkham Hearse, The Evil Glergyman, and The Old Man's Not So Terribly Misanthropic. Great work. Though Nick Blinko, the lyricist/guitarist/vocalist could've taken more of the Lps material a little more seriously. He still, beyond a doubt, took the author who inspired the album serious enough to present a musical work that Lovecraft enthusiasts (those who also like heavy music) can definitely appreciate.

Not sure, but I get the feeling it's taking on a whole new meaning in this forum.

For those interested it's available on this site.

You can check out samples of the tunes here.

And as far as what a "peni" is? You'll just have to stir up some dust in the ol' brain pan, I reckon.

There's an adaptation of a Frank Belknap Long story as well, Beyond The Tanarian Hills.

And the FBL story itself was a reworking of an earlier work, Beyond the Valley of the Peni.

Sorry. I'll stop now.
