Thee Kabal (Detroit 1991-1993)

Thee Kabal (Detroit 1991-1993)
Eden B: Drums, Mike Lemon: Noise, Doug Mathias: Noise, Kate McGlynn: Drums, Anthony Sebring: Tapes and Loops, Evan Menken: Tapes and Loops, and E. Dincha: Vocals, or should I say spoken word?

After traveling about the country for a year I returned to Detroit and attempted to settle down. I picked up every punk kids dream job and started working at Noir Leather in Royal Oak. Wearing jackets marked with psychic crosses and images of Manson I met a small group of like-minded folk and we eventually started up Thee Kabal at the same time we were coming together as a TOPY action point. We released one cassette tape that sold out quickly, played live at The Shelter’s SIN night a few times and played live as the soundtrack for one of Noir Leather’s infamous fashion shows. This fashion show and our soundtrack were turned into a TV commercial for Noir.

Journal 12.18.1989

This is my first ‘dedicated’ journal entry. 23

I have started by preparing a work area containing books that I feel will give a complete or at least well rounded type of information. I drank a small amount of alcohol and proceed to study the 7 of Wands, Valor, in both Thoth books. I shall continue meditation after this note. I finished my work by reading the introduction to “The Golden Dawn” by Chris Monnastre and the previous material in the book. In the future I need to inquire with the publishers. Earlier today I read random pieces of James Havoc’s “Raism” and became slightly disturbed. I hope to increase my occult vocabulary by reading Havoc’s work. During my work today I listened to Current 93’s “Mighty in Sorrow,” finding it a proper aid.
