I support and encourage the (...click for more...)
Lust Murder Box"In the wake of famed underground sensation Terminal 46’s implosion; founding members Nox Mountebank and Erik Gustafson merged yet again to form LUST MURDER bOX.

Soon after the false millennium, they emerged with a newly formed band and a chock full of bad attitude."
