Não a conhecia. Que grata surpresa. Jamais ouvi algo tão fantástico. Seu som leva a lugares que minha mente não imaginava. Estou encantado com essa grande artista

[@medicixxvl3126]

Everytime I prepare for a invoke the spirits of the dark, I play her music to mentally be a conduit for the next level of spirituality, more so of workings with the magus or another grimrore. That I not fear the same darkness from within us all.so mote it be .

[@shannonfarmer1636]

The only way to listen to this album is at midnight wity some candles scattered about!!! Loved you since PANOPTIKON

[@AkAMuzik]

bloody hell, she drains me out.

[@sweetpeaLp7]

that reaction will also sometimes happen to one's peanut-dick after receiving dynamic sex.

[@human9903]

straordinaria performance, lei é ultraterrena, meraviglia ed emozione pura

[@talastra]

I count it very much to my credit that this kind of "aria" is the type to reduce me to tears. Also, Cyndi Lauper "True Colors." :)

[@Albrecht777]

Astounding performance and, amazingly, she hasn't changed a bit. Does she have a portrait in her attic... or has she made a Faustian pact? ;-)

[@blackglasses356]

Nope, but she does have a stone mask in her attic

This is wild and kinda spooky, I was reading a Q/A from singer of Emperor and was talking about seeing this live so I decided to check this out , it’s dark poetry at its best even though I was thinking Black Metal Band but yeah this is something new to me I enjoyed it most definitely

Satan speaking to you while the washing machine is drying the clothes up. If take some lsd or something while performing this task might lead to some serioulsly irreversible shit..

[@beijes]

Sensacional

[@MartinDelCarpio]

Amazing!

[@williambrown3794]

Sounds like the wailing at the beginning of The Shining.

[@talastra]

Or at the end of Serpent and the Rainbow :)

@John Temple And that Clive Barker film, Prince of Darkness (I know, that's John Carpenter, so I'm confused, but the name is something like that). Lords of Chaos?

[@triciaroy]

She is a priestess of a dark divinity. Hard to listen to and remain the same.

Yoko Ono surely learned screeching and wailing from this gal ..... my goodness. This is like performance art, right? I must not be "intellectual" enough to appreciate the nuances of her screaming.

[@Moxiousnilk]

Just because you do not like it or get it, doesn't mean it has no right to be.

[@betsysingh-anand3228]

I didn't say that she doesn't have the right to make her "art". I am merely saying that - to me - it sounds like screeching and wailing rather than singing. It would seem that you are reading way more into my comment than is actually there.

[@andrebraga-verissimo3129]

u just have rigid ideas of what singing can be really....and she surely screams too

[@CKendlesspain222]

And that's your interpretation, and that's fine. This is why I love artists like DG.

[@talastra]

It's not about intellectuality at all, although Galas indisputably is an artist and a composer. But her material is the anguished scream of the most abandoned people in the world. What's to "intellectualize" about that? It's daunting, it can be frightening if you imagine yourself--trapped in hell, in the burning church of a genocide, in a fever hospital, in the torturer's dungeon, in prison, in the mental hospital. These are, indeed, frightening places often accompanied by mental, spiritual, and physical torture, if not simply unbearable despair and hopelessness. What's to intellectualize about that? And if you have not lived close to that pit, if you have not watched loved ones burned to death, die of AIDS, or simply go mad in an institution, if you have not felt yourself near that precipice yourself ... then surely this performance may seem alien to you. But I can promise you, for those who have suffered, even in immense depths, they understand these torments, as having come from their own lungs, or the lungs of those in the cells next to them. Or, to put it another way, it will be hard for you to imagine how listening to this brings tears, not of despair, but of catharsis. What's to be intellectually competent enough to understand about that? Frankly, I think you understand it perfectly. It's just a painful thing to realize. But triumphing over the darkness, or simply refusing to be silenced even as you sink into a final oblivion of darkness howling, hurled there by a heartless deity, lifts up the soul.
