Liebe Hörerinnen und Hörer,

gestartet sind Jochen Gebauer und Dom Schott mit der gleichen, heiligen Mission: Einen treuen Kult errichten und vier böse Gottheiten vom Thron stoßen, das erklärte Ziel von Cult of the Lamb. Die Wege aber, die die beiden dafür einschlugen, hätten unterschiedlicher nicht sein können. Und so kommt das Duo nach vielen Stunden wieder zusammen, um über das große Kot-Müsli-Fiasko, Opferrituale, unheilige Festessen, Hamsterräder und süchtig machende Arbeitsroutinen zu sprechen - und ihren Kultführungsstil miteinander zu vergleichen.

Viel Spaß!
Dom & Jochen

Runde 387: Cult of the Lamb

Have you ever walked home at night, keys in hand, ready to throw a punch in self-defence? That’s how it all started. The killing spree, I mean.

I sort of tripped into this role… Literally. The first one was following me. That guy from the nightclub who wouldn’t leave me alone. I pushed him, he stumbled, and fell onto his own broken wine bottle. Oops. It was such a waste of a good house white.

But now I can’t seem to stop and nor do I want to… I’ve got a taste for revenge and quite frankly, I’m killing it.

For people with BPD, dissociation is a very common problem, which is difficult to put into words. It affects so many of us, but we all experience it differently.

Redrawing the lines: cocaine policy in Latin America

The infamous Syd Barrett interview ! Recorded in 2005, one year before the passing of the original singer and founder of Pink Floyd, this encounter with a true rock myth still raises controversy among the fans. Fired from his band in 1968 because of his psychedelic drug abuse, the secluded musician was notoriously living with his sister and refusing interviews. It took Nicolas Ruffault a lot of love and hard work to have him on tape, especially because… ok, it was an hoax.  
Directed by Nicolas Ruffault - Production : http://arteradio.com
Syd Barrett ou l'un des grands mystères du rock. Fondateur et premier chanteur du groupe Pink Floyd, il en est exclu en 1968 pour avoir abusé des drogues, notamment psychédéliques. Malgré deux albums solo, Syd sombre dans la folie : il ne quitte plus le jardin familial après 1972. Un an avant son décès en juillet 2006, ARTE Radio lui consacrait un reportage - trop beau pour être vrai - en Bretagne.
