Misery Bacon

Seven musings on death, the afterlife, communication and the musicality of the
non-musical, 'Polycrisis Apparitions' is the latest release from Misery Bacon.

Misery Bacon is a solo audio project by Luke Drozd, an artist, illustrator and
musician based in Bergen, Norway. Following on from 2025's 'Turning in the
widening gyre', a release that unspooled over two longform tracks filled with
serrated drones, distorted noise and harsh blown-out samples, 'Polycrisis
Apparitions' pulls back slightly, offering something slightly closer to songs
and perhaps offering a slightly easier listen as a result. Comprised of seven
shorter works, the album is pieced together from a series of field-recordings,
played sounds and manipulated found audio sources. Old language records and
cassettes, hydrophone recordings, past-life regression videos, mangled sermons
and the clicks and whirrs of a failing CD player all form part of this
collection of textural collages.

Recorded and assembled on residency at Bergen Centre for Electronic Arts (BEK)
and Leveld Kunstnartun AiR, Norway 2025
