Solo project of Carey Mercer; releases include Skin of Evil, Light Flows the Putrid Dawn, Fuck Death, and Blues Trip. Reviews describe a theatrical, gothic-western sound and an abrasive, prophetic vocal delivery.

PaxEst describes Skin of Evil as a hallucinatory, gothic-western soundscape led by Carey Mercer's theatrical, often abrasive voice. The record is challenging and bleak, praised for its vivid scenes and lyrical intensity. Not light listening — rewarding in specific moods.
