PELLE IN MORBID (SWE)

"At a gig in Birkagården youth center, Pelle had created a tape with the audio from the crucifix m*sturbation scene in The Exorcist, and crawled out of the casket with the fog machine on full blast. Jens Näsström says that Pelle possessed an unusually strong ability to formulate himself artistically.

"It's very difficult to put it into words, but I think that's one of the aspects people have picked up on. It was immediately evident that this was not contrived - nothing he did was to "look cool". He was genuinely inspired and with true connection like that comes a real sense of power. He would walk on stage and people were laughing for 15 seconds, and then they weren't laughing anymore”.
