DEATHPILE | G.R. | CD

G.R. is the definitive true crime album classic initiated during the hunt for the green river killer and completed after the capture of gary ridgway. using criminal psychology techniques now a household name via Manhunter, the artist entered the mind of the killer delivering a timeline of the slayings, motives and fantasies with a first-person ferocity so convincing to the point of crossing over into pop culture - alongside books, databases, documentaries and films as a sonic reference point of america’s most prolific serial murder case. the obsessive recording and research process spanning over several years from the perspective of the UNSUB successfully theorized his psyche with uncanny and accurate predictions prior to the suspect’s apprehension with an almost supernatural foreshadowing, later proven during the trial in evidence and footage of gary ridgway’s confessions. G.R. achieved such a level of believability that the mental toll took on the artist effectively ended the band. G.R. is a confrontational cautionary tale of ‘art imitates crime’.  DEATHPILE’s G.R. contains devastating dense and flowing electronic synthesis mastery with naked vocals depicting graphic and disturbing lyrics not suitable for society whose authenticity has yet to be surpassed in power electronics two decades on. originally appearing as a co-release between Hospital Productions and Force Of Nature in the first 100 releases on the label, as Hospital now approaches its thousandth release - this 20+ year edition is presented with an expanded layout and unseen photos from the G.R. era when DEATHPILE was Jonathan Canady and David E. Williams. CD edition with expanded layout, lyrics and unseen photo from era.
