BLACK SHEEP SCREAMING is a semi-abstract musical art one-man project from Serbia,officially dating from 1998,after ten years of involvement and fiddling in various electronic forms of music,using available methods and equipment at that time. Hard,long.thrilling and educational 10 years of experimenting and creating,using,abusing and getting the maximum out of tapes ,microphones, homemade mixers, homemade distortions (out of old walkmans and car radios),
Atari ST and Amiga computers,outdated midi sequencers and trackers, cubase, octamed, combined with other midi language based equipment,
in various genres like industrial,EBM and acidhouse,only to finally form into a unified shape named BLACK SHEEP SCREAMING.

The project,is a complex artistic expression of a journey through existence, depicting the most significant events and experiences of a self-aware mind, in both extremes of the big scale of evil and good,and also visiting both the brightest and darkest corners of human minds and the biggest mystery itself-life, using it's aesthetic form of dark and not rarely very aggressive electro-industrial-noise music.

In its own contradictory and abstract way, sounding harsh, aggressive, dark, proud,yet melancholic,broken,sad and pessimistic,BLACK SHEEP SCREAMING stabs a knife into every throat breathing hipocricy and malevolence,cries out and reaches for every helpless animal hurt by the bloody hand of the vile and sadistic man, condemns what should have returned to hell long ago, and praises what is left to be praised.

In a Lynch-ian way of painting emotions on canvas,with forever uncompromised style and never to surrender,it is a middle finger to the system and conformity,a web of random emotional but also well planned thoughts,a reaction of fire and ice in the same pot,portraying pessimism as we witness retardation of human values,destruction of all holy,atrophy of the common will to save ourselves.
But still with a positive prefix in the end - because THEY may never be allowed to win. Yes YOU,you will never be allowed to win.
