Violent Magic Orchestra
The Violent Magic Orchestra (VMO) is an offshoot of Japan’s brutal orchestra of everything Black, Vampillia. In collaboration with Pete Swanson (ex-Yellow Swans) and French composer Paul Régumbeau, aka Mondkopf, VMO’s album ‘Catastrophic Anonymous’ cranks up the level of cataclysm with delicious hyperbole, a juggernaut exercise in stomach-turning sub bass assaults, pneumatic blast beats and violent black metal barrages.
