It originated in Boston as a result of the collective efforts of musicians concerned about the direction to be taken by the Latin American musical forms. Elegua essentially deal…

Violet Vinyl Edition. 40th-anniversary edition. Korpses Katatonik was a musical solo project of Zoe DeWitt during the years 1982 and 1983.

Like many other exponents of industrial culture Korpses Katatonik was inspired by dark p…
