Lustmord

Lustmord is the project of the Welsh musician, sound designer and composer Brian Williams, who grew up in North Wales and moved to Los Angeles in the 1990s. He started using the name in 1980, after Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti of Throbbing Gristle encouraged him to make his own music. Working with field recordings, drones and deep low frequencies, he is widely credited with shaping dark ambient, above all with the album Heresy. Lustmord came out of the London industrial scene, working with Chris & Cosey and SPK.
