Not Satanic Enough?

I have been hearing from many that my vids as of late do not reflect the original "pow" to which brothers had become accustomed from my earlier videos. So--in response--I say:

Click HERE to find out more about the Byzantine Church of Belial and why my vids are not always able to "speak to" or reach 100% of the gay Satanic community.

My stuff is not "horror porn" nor will it necessarily include the cliche candles, robes, pentagrams, and other trappings of elementary and rural "cultism." That is just kindof icky to me (right?), and also there is plenty of that coming from Triple Six Comics, and I am grateful that Chuck is working on that aspect of things. But it's not Brodie Newport, or--rather--it's only PART of my journey ... and almost certainly not my destination.

And by talking with others, I know that I am not the only one who embraces this "version" of things. So, my hope is that my work will represent THIS segment or approach. Rather than being an "all-or-nothing" and bloody path, it is my sincere vision that we can all follow the Lord through a very literally metaphysical relationship and direct experience with him.

And I have some extremely exciting plans at the moment for shooting vids that capture just that. I can't wait to share, and I am working very hard to make sure all goes as planned.

If this philosophy and orientation of mine toward Satanic practice and worship and belief is too abstract, then there are many other great Satanic traditions out there as well.

Maybe start by checking out movies featuring the great Freddie Kruger?


I hope that helps. I am sure I will have much more to say as I explain what Satanism and religion and philosophy and spirituality mean to me and my "take" on things. As an artist ... as a vessel ... as a Son of Belial.

Watch for a new box cover going up later today--posting the fourth of my new series (second album) to XTube hopefully by the end of the day!

It does seem that whoever mentioned some perceived issues with your approach hit a rather serious nerve brother. I doubt that they meant go to the other extreme as you and I have seen....bloody, gory and ridiculous approaches to Satanism. Or at least I hope so, if so then your suggestion might fit for them.

I do want to say that the implements used in Traditional Theistic Satanism are not cliche in the least and a lot of people, myself included, use them in day to day ritual in a very non-Kruger way to fellowship with each other and show respect for the powers of Hell.

One of the main points I like to instill in people is that there are many roads to take to reach the answers you seek on this path. None are more important or powerful than the others and all have their place. Knowing Brodie as well as I do, I know he is truly Satanic and embraces this path fully, anyone who thinks otherwise is misinformed.

Hail Satan!
