Top Ten of Twenty Thirteen: Mike IX Williams of Eyehategod and Corrections House

Mike IX Williams

Mike IX Williams


Corrections House is the collective musical extractions of Mike IX Williams (Eyehategod), Scott Kelly (Neurosis), Bruce Lamont (Yakuza), Sanford Parker (Minsk) and their minister of propaganda, Seward Fairbury. Already commended for exploring “a soundscape that is doomed and destroyed without using the traditional sounds of extreme metal,” in an 8/10 review by Decibel Magazine, this year’s Last City Zero was produced by Parker at Electrical Audio, Soma Studios, 60 Psycho Hum and Nodferatu’s Lair and provides an eight-track, near 50-minute investigative excursion of verse and orchestration that is at once beautifully hideous, graceful and terrifying – a true manifestation of societal ruin and psychological decay.
