Lustmord
Brian Williams is a Welsh musician, sound designer and film score composer. He is often credited for creating the dark ambient genre with albums recorded under the name Lustmord (a painting tradition in Weimar-era Germany, literally “sex murder,” in which artists like Otto Dix and George Grosz painted scenes of rape and mutilated female bodies that captured the nihilism in Europe between the world wars). His experimental work has been described as "not traditionally 'musical'" with "more clearly visual aspects".
