NEW! ART MINES TUNNEL 20. Just started, currently with "Salute to LeMUR", Prophecy Graphics of 7X-DAY, and a huge gallery of Rev. Espira's art. Part of a new Stark Fist in progress.
NEW! ARISE! - The SubGenius Movie is NOW PLAYING (or at least is downloadable) in DivX -- DETAILS HERE. ((NOTE: ARISE in DivX is now on alt.binaries.movies.DivX, but most of our other material is on alt.binaries.monter-movies (including "AS THEY SEE "BOB" in DivX, as of yesterday).)
DEVIVAL in CLEVELAND, Saturday May 22 – see details on the DEVIVALS page.
NEW! ARISE! -- The SubGenius Movie, is now available on
DVD from our catalog. This re-issue has been a long time in the remaking. Working from the original 1" video master tapes, we carefully restored this legendary video collage masterpiece to a better condition than it enjoyed in 1991, when the master was last worked over. (ARISE was distributed by Polygram in the early 90s, and was even in stores briefly --until Blockbuster went all "Christian" and had 800 copies returned en masse, resulting in Polygram basically dropping it like a
dirty-bomb. For many years, only VHS copies and bootlegs have been available.)
We carefully reworked and improved the sound, tweaked shots here and there,
threw in a couple of Bushes and an Osama, and as many bonuses as the DVD size
allows -- including a gorgeous Dobbshead meditation loop, the SubGenius Church
commercial from 1990, and the brand new X-Day at Brushwood short. The interface
is slick as snot on a doorknob, with little time-windows into each of the 27 chapters
and bonus bits. ONLY $19.95. Click here for the
catalog page. BUY NOW!! I'm posting the soundtrack album to alt.binaries.slack in MP3s this week, if you
want to just hear Hal Robin's dramatic narration and DK Jones' stunning music,
and try to IMAGINE what we came up with for visuals.
NEW! A whole new SubGenius® hangout among Microsoft Groups: the PRAISE "BOB" Group! Check it out. You'll have to make yourself a fake name and personal password if you're not already a MSN Group member, but it's real easy and free free free.
OLD NEWS:
ME NOT DEAD! -- although, aside from Hours of Slack, this
website has been. It slumbered while I Slacked off in Texas during the
holidays. I, Stang have had to go back home to the Stang Ranch in Texas several
times during the previous year, because my Ma has been ailing. (She is,
however, apparently immortal.) And we really did Slack off while in Texas.
Nonetheless, while at Cleveland home office, Princess Wei and I have managed to
move quite a large number of both physical and virtual objects from place to
place, and, as it turns out, we have no less than FOURTEEN (14!!) different new
SubGenius Media products... ALMOST FINISHED. By that, I mean I haven't done the boxes and ads
yet. I didn't MEAN for them all to be made simultaneously and late. In fact, I
tried oh so hard to get a FEW into the Scatalog by Xmas. But, SLACK WON OUT,
and this new swag remains maddenly ALMOST done. Silly "REAL" things
keep interfering with my EXPERIMENTS, you see... the fools won't leave me
alone. The Burgomeister, the villagers and the silly Norm-Worms, all... well,
we'll see... meanwhile, I wanted to quell the rumors that Fernandinande LeMur
and I both died in a horrible train crash in Mexico or New Mexico, depending on
which version you hear. In truth we're both alive and laughing, or at least
grimacing in a rictus-like approximation of laughter.
New swag-2-b includes the ARISE DVD, 3
new-old CDs plus a 5-CD set from 6X-Day, several SETS of VOLUMES of Hours of
Slack (and movies) in various formats, and a whole new collection of SubGenius
animation shorts and "music videos" on DVD, tentatively called "PsycheDobbsics".
Believe me, I will have this stuff in my end of the catalog as soon as I can
(now that I got that last Hour of Slack done... OH JEEPERS, THE NEXT ONE'S
ALREADY DUE!). And there's a grillion godzillion new things to add to SubSITE
and the CafePress store and YOU NAME IT.
What I personally am working towards is a
book-video-album HISTORY OF THE CHURCH. I now have hundreds of hours of old and
new SubGenius video loaded into my various donated hard drives, and am in, or
nearing, the process of remixing it bit by bit. I haven't even started into the
PAPER media of the 80s and early 90s yet... one thing I want to try to get
organized is a book-length REPRINT of the old STARK FIST magazines, several of
which were over 100 pages long.
TIME CONTROL remains our main problem,
regarding all these projects. Judging by the weather outside today, though, I
won't be going anywhere soon. As long as the power holds out I should be able
to get some of these massive endeavors out of my office and into circulation.
Or at least a few naughty jpegs of the massive endeavors.
November 29: DETROIT DEVIVAL -- with THE
AMINO ACIDS and others at THE MAGIC STICK was the best-attended
devival in years. I hear my one-camera hand-held video footage of The Amino
Acids is available on EBay!
The Beachland Ballroom devival in
Cleveland went well, resulting in no violence, but a whole new DVD -- of
ANIMATION! Now in progress: ARISE on DVD. Check both catalogs in a month. Also
trying to get 5 new CD/CD-R things done before Xistlessnessmas.
IndyVival
2003 went smashedly, and there are hundreds of photos, videos and audio
recordings from it on alt.binaries.slack!
We further commemorate it by finally posting the sexy photos from IndyVival
2002.
I, Stang re-edited the 5X-Day video
footage YET AGAIN (since the news below) into a 3-minute "X-DAY AD"
that's as overblown as a Ronco commercial, as well as a 26-minute "5X-Day
Featurette" that greatly improves on the feature-length version described
below. The 5X-Day DVD is now a TWO DVD set for the same price. The new cut is
much more suitable for showing non-SubGenii or those who weren't lucky enough
to be there. Even if you can't download a 512 mb SVCD video, you should check
out the vast store of great art and audio by everybody ELSE on the Usenet
newsgroup, alt.binaries.slack. Here are MORE DETAILS.
LAST MONTH'S NEWS: The edited DVD
video of 5 X-Day is finished. I, Stang got a wild hair and used the footage
to practice my video editing skills on the increasingly new-fangled gizmos now
at our disposal. It's 70 minutes long and very edited, with jazzy transitions
and subtitles, sound effects and even 3 bonus musical slide shows of still
photos from this bizarre event. Besides the DVD, there's also a VHS and an el-cheapo MPEG-VCD version on CD-R. AND, this week I
even posted a quite good RealMedia version of the whole movie to alt.binaries.slack, FREE (for those with
broadband and Internet video bootlegging skills, anyway). (We also lowered the prices on all our DVDs by
$4!) (Scroll down below the porno banner ads for details on how to access
the wonders of Usenet newsgroups for free or close to it.)
NEW! The recent DEVOtional
2003 was such a gas that we not only did up a text-n-pics
report on it, but finally got around to posting the photos and art from
last year's DEVOtional
2002 and the AKRON
DEVIVAL that went with it.
Ah-ROOOO-gah! STARWOOD
23 happened and we have a written
report and pictorial on this marvel-filled event, which included SubGenius
sermons, bands, haircuts, and Crop Circle Making Lessons.
The 8th X-Day Drill (6XDay) REPORTS are now online. (And the layout design has been improved by our BIG
PRIZE WINNER, Rev. ERRor!) It was a screaming, sweating, cavorting success, as
Drills go. Too bad it wasn't the ACTUAL End of All Human Reality, this time.
Maybe next time. I, Stang have finished 3 Hours of Slack based on the
"footage" we recorded, which are online now, thanks to D. Bachner.
Rev. Patrick Volkerding and I have uploaded our UNCUT recordings to
alt.binaries.slack as MP3s, and last week hundreds of photos were posted by
many folks.
In the meantime, Rev. Jarto and also
Hellpope Huey finished editing the new Online Fist, mostly; somebody
-- maybe YOU -- has to clean up the indexes to the various sections. But, the
hundreds of indexed articles are now much easier to skim.
6X-DAY CLOTHING,
HATS, TOYS!
SUIT YOURSELF UP in Rupture-Wear worthy of your last days on Earth Farm One... garments
which also make swell souvineers and collector's items the SECOND the world
fails to end! Whereas previous X-day Drills were each commemorated with one
special fancy T-shirt design, this year -- because the Xists really WILL
arrive, one of these X-Days -- Dobbs blesses us with DOZENS of combinations of
garment style and designs. There's even a SKULL PROTECTOR... and SCALE MODEL
PLEASURE SAUCERS! THESE WON'T ALL BE AT BRUSHWOOD... grab 'em now, before you
head for Sherman, via our bottomless online
store's "SEASONAL & LIMITED EDITION" page.
AND!! -- 6X-DAY
PROPHECY ART!
Latest surges of sickness and psyhedelo-joy from the denizens of
alt.binaries.slack. Part of the special 6X-Day section.
Speaking of which -- the headline band on Saturday night, Planet X bound, is
Detroit's THE AMINO ACIDS. Anyone
who saw these invaders at the Akron devival will agree that this is indeed THE
new Dobbs-Approved Space-Surf-Metal band. EINSTEIN'S SECRET ORCHESTRA, and ANYONE
ELSE who's not too drunk with Slack, will basically JAM ALL THE REST OF THE
TIME. There is NO stage manager, so any SubGenius, crazed or timid, can have
the stage... it's every being for itself this time. This also allows direct
criticism by the audience, incidentally. With my old Spouting partners Dr.
Philo Drummond and Dr. G. Gordon Gordon attending, as well as the New School
SubMasters of Internet fame, it promises to be our 8th actual ultimate WEEK OF
SLACK. Just right for kicking off an Eternity of Slack.
NEW! "BOB's" Sound Holes
PRAISE The Really
Rather Rancid Rev. Error! For this mighty SubGenius has, by remote control,
from merry Warwickshire, England, TOTALLY RENOVATED an abandoned section of
SubSITE that had long lain fallow: the SMALL, DOWNLOADABLE SOUND CLIPS vaults,
previously called "THE EARS OF "BOB"" when under Rev.
WanDarer in years past. For SubGenii on slow modems, for whom THE HOUR OF SLACK
is too huge a download, these small, simple audio WAV sound files are dinky
enough to affix to emails. Subject matter ranges from classical olden-day
SubGenius‚Ñ¢ radio preaching clips to prank calls and musical numbers. They play
almost instantly, at the push of a button, on almost any computer. (Not to be
confused with the giant MP3 copies of entire
modern SubGenius radio shows!)
NEWish: THE ONLINE STARK FIST OF REMOVAL
#2003-1 and ART MINES TUNNEL 19
are not exactly done,
but from now
'till X-Day, I, Stang must travel back and forth between the Cleveland Heights
MegaFisTemple and the Stang Ranch in Texas... but I wanted to make this
fascinating material available enough for others (mainly Rev. Jarto, so far,
with Gov. Rocknar) to starting helping tweak them, which has started happening.
Until they are fully edited, some are still raw archives of the GOOD stuff that
went onto our Usenet newsgroups, alt.slack and alt.binaries.slack, during the
last 9 months or so. The recent non-peaceful world events are covered from,
truly, EVERY angle.
This new material
comprises 180 megabytes of color art and similarly vivid text. That's... a LOT.
It also COSTS us a lot to make these treasures available to the 90% of SubGenii
who are too lazy to mess with Usenet newsgroups. Therefore, even if you have NO
EYES OR EARS, you should BUY something brain-cleaving from our newly pumped up
catalog of SubGenius Media.
NEW-like: WE HAVE SubGenius‚Ñ¢ DVDs NOW in the Bulldada
Time Control Laboratories catalog. Also, NEW
MP3 and VCD compilations, and HOUR
OF SLACK volumes.
6X-Day pages installed --
not much time left before the End! You might SERIOUSLY THINK about attending
one of these events before the world really does end or They crack down.

If you're new to the Church, OR, if you've simply never
DARED TRY IT BEFORE, some of the craziest and most SLACK-IMPARTING SubGenius‚Ñ¢
activity occurs nonstop on the two newsgroups, alt.slack
(all text) and alt.binaries.slack (pics,
audio, animation). Many new Internet users know only email and websites, and
have shunned the unfettered world of newsgroups on Usenet mainly because they
look like crap on browsers like Explorer, and sometimes you can't view all the
killer pictures and movies without downloading a special free program.
Actually, at download.com it's easy to
find one of the fine free newsreader programs for Windowss such as Forte Agent,
or for Macs such as Thoth. I
am not here to be your Internet instruction book, but, I'm telling you, the newsgroups are where it's happening.
Some folks say they "can't get" alt.binaries.slack, but if you ask
your ISP's support person, it can easily be added. Or do like us Old Timers,
and use a cheap ($6/mo) newsgroup specialty service like Giganews or Newsguy.
I'm not trying to sell you on any specific services, but I do strongly believe
that while the World Wide Web is swiftly being licensed and controlled, the
world of Usenet newsgroups is still a fairly unregulated free-for-all, slippery
and Slack-laden.
Alt.slack has been particularly exciting lately, as a
record number of non-SubGenius kooks have been desperately trying to convert or
at least deprogram us. They are frequently funnier than we are, without meaning
to be. OLD alt.slack stuff is archived in the online Stark Fists, but it's a
lot more fun to follow current running gags and battles.
When the STARK FIST related stuff is done, I'll try to do
some revisions to ARISE and get it onto DVD. We were donated a DVD BURNER, ALL
PRAISE BE TO THE GRIPTION CLENCH of NORTH CAROLINA!!
OLDISH: During the war, which needless to
say I consider to be the worst kind of trick on humans by the latest model
False Prophets, I became worried about people getting killed -- especially
SubGenius‚Ñ¢ soldiers. Silly me. I know that, as a Good SubGenius‚Ñ¢, I should be
happy to see humans, ANY humans, be prematurely "X-Day-ed," but hey,
call me a backslider. I posted this essay here: BACK to
"NORMAL" -- latest vain ruminations on the war . It got me hate mail from
dumbasses who felt sure I was a dumbass who had fallen hook, line, and sinker
for the bullshit of the Oiligarchy. Perhaps they have not been dutifully
listening to The Hour of Slack, or following the rather detailed discussions on the
SubGenius‚Ñ¢ newsgroups, and jumped to knee-jerk preprogrammed conclusions based
on either my hurried signifying or the belief that things are simple. Perhaps I
AM a dumbass.. In any event, it was a case of all of us, except for the
COMBATANTS and the SLAUGHTERED INNOCENTS, sitting on our asses doing a lot of
TALKING and bitching based mostly on hogwash and propaganda from every side.
Which was my intended point in that particular rant.
But, far more important
than trivial arguments between bipedal Earth-tribes that might destroy all
civilization as we know it, WE HAVE BEEN MAKING SUBGENIUS‚Ñ¢ DVDs and other
media. SEE THE DETAILS HERE in an old report sent
to alt.slack.
(Notice a slight change in
our standard punctuation on this site?)
You may have noticed that
this site hasn't grown much since Xistlessnessmas. Actually it HAS, you just
can't SEE it yet unless you've been watching alt.slack
or alt.binaries.slack. I am trying to add
online forums HERE so that Rev. David Bachner and me are not the only persons
with enough web programming knowledge to shovel new material into the site. In
the meantime, INCREDIBLE TROVES of that new material, current events art and
commentary, are new every day on alt.slack and alt.binaries.slack, and weekly on The Hour of Slack.
PREVIOUS NEWS: We were doing Church and Yeti
family reunions in San Francisco and North Texas, and then sick with the
Conspiracy Flu, for a whole month. We managed to pack a lot of Slack into it
nonetheless, as covered in these two new special sections:
2. ) HOW WE SPENT OUR XISTLESSNESSMAS VACATION
(with photos
of what we spent it ON)
ONLINE
SUBGENIUS STORE CATALOG. APPROXIMATELY 500 NEW "BOB" PRODUCTS.
Not only the Cafe Press side, but Bulldada Time Control Laboratories (formerly
Connivin' Ivan's) has been revamped, with entire new categories and many new
products added, from the 7 Bladed Windbreaker to an ancient flexidisk. You
might want to look at this gigantic catalog addition, even if you are
penniless. The captions and concepts alone are the equivalent of a whole new
SubGenius book.
OLD ATOM FUNWAY
SECTIONS added to
HUGE NEW ART & VIDEO GALLERY, Art
Mines Tunnel 18
There are sections of OLD SubSITE art mines which got closed off when we
changed servers years ago, sections which MANY volunteers have promised to help
re-open... just before vanishing forever. A discussion on alt.binaries.slack of
SubGenius Tarot Cards and Trading Cards prompted me to stop waiting for help.
and to go ahead and re-open the most incredible of all the ancient wonders of
the world, ATOM FUNWAYS HUNDREDS OF CLASSIC SUBGENIUS ARTWORKS from around
1996. I will get to the other lost sections as time allows.
The ART MINES TUNNEL 18 itself includes 6 months' worth of eye-watering
computer graphics, crazed SubGenius portraits, dozens of bizarre Flash videos
and games, and other seriously pleasurable gateways to the Old Ones. Not for
kids, and you might ought to take your heart medicine first. Part of October's NEW ONLINE STARK FIST. NEWLY RE-REVISED LAYOUT BY EDFRED.
ART MINES GALLERY 15 just got a
layout revision from Rev. J. Cobblestone!
Recently we received this letter from someone whose name I don't recognize at all:
Rev,
I remember the Stark Fist of Removal I read in 1984, compact, tight, and a
literary masterpiece. It's time for Stark Fist 2, written on a goddamn IBM
Selectric. If I see another dumbshit web site built with a 29 dollar modem I'm
gonna puke on my cat.
little hoser
Well, Li'l Hoser, CLUTCH
YOUR KITTY, 'cause you'll PUKE when you see:

(Aside from the link to Art Mines Tunnel 18, which contines hundreds of
incredible artworks, videos and games.) But it does have an "explanation"
and even gives YOU a way to BE A PART of this GRAND ENDEAVOR!

"GET RID OF THOSE AWFUL PORNO LINKS ON SUBSITE," you say! "They scared the bejesus out of my mom!" Well, these pornographers, unlike YOU, HELP PAY FOR OUR WEBSITE. You can BEAT THEM OFF by SIMPLY buying one or two SubGenius products every now and then. There's always "SOMETHING NEW TO BUY FOR" -- actual buyable new holy Dobbs products at the (newly re--renamed) BULLDADA TIME CONTROL LABS online store, not to mention the CAFE PRESS SUBGENIUS STORE.
GET WITH THE END
TIMES!! -- and
READ ALL
ABOUT the NEW 1982 SubGenius classic, MEDIA BARRAGE 5: "BOB" ATTACK.
Then BUY this CD remaster. It's true that
we do embroider the truth now and then, but this really is a bite off the
SubGenius apple from when it was at its most ripe and poisonous and belongs in
every SubGenius tape/CD library.
Then read up on how you
can get 24
HOURS OF PURE SLACK by THINKING GLOBULARLY
and ACTING LOCO with "HOUR OF SLACK on MP3," Volumes 7 and 8.
Finally, now that we've
removed the FREE DOWNLOADS of everything recorded at the fantastic 5X-Day Drill
(see NEWLY REVISED PRIZE-WINNING PAGE BY ST. MYKAL D'ARCHANGEL), we SELL it
all in MP3
on ONE CD
that you download through the POST OFFICE.

THE SAUCERS were LATE AGAIN! -- either that, or The Conspiracy has been
monkeying with the calendars for centuries. So our seventh Brushwood adventure
turned out to be just another Drill... but, drilling for the End of the World
is a lot more fun than no End of the World at all. In fact, it's so damn much
fun, and some of us have gotten so good at building our own Escape Vessels,
that the Drills ALONE are ALMOST GOOD ENOUGH. If only we could just get the
DRILLS THEMSELVES to last FOREVER, hell, we wouldn't even NEED the gods, aliens
and monsters! BUT, WE'D STILL NEED "BOB." You're either on the
saucers or you're off the saucers... but you ain't goin' NOWHERE without that
man J.R. "Bob" Dobbs!!
X-Day
is a GREAT Day -- a great EX-cuse Day! FOR DAMN NEAR ANYTHING.
Although
the zombies and I are still finishing up the new Online Stark Fist, the big
X-Day last-minute oozsquirt of activity resulted in several HOLY NEW PRODUCTS which ARE FINALLY NOW

I
ACTUALLY ADDED A WHOLE BUNCH OF NEW LINKS TO OUR LONG LOST WEB LINKS PAGE!! And I suspect we
could use a new volunteer to handle that potentially VOLATILE and EXCITING
page. At any rate, the new links should keep the lazy SubGenius VERY BUSY for
awhile.
By
chance, the Cleveland Plain Dealer newspaper picked X-Day-E'en to run a story
about our own Prof. Chas Smith, maestro of Einstein's Secret Orchestra and ESO
Radio, which mentions the Brushwood X-day cult-in in odd terms. Here's the
article in the Plain Dealer.

forget the newsgroups alt.slack and alt.binaries.slack. HINT: If your local ISP doesn't carry
alt.binaries.slack among its newsgroups, write to "support" @ your

and there of a heart attack -- namely, a SUBGENIUS MEMBERSHIP PACK?
And -- WORSE -- did you know that, like the Mormons, our religion offers
RETROACTIVE SALVATION? If you always regretted that good ol' Gramps, your ONLY
decent relative, died before you got a chance to share the word of
"Bob" with him, NOW YOU CAN MAKE ATONEMENT FOR HIS SIN! Buy Gramps a
RETROACTIVE SubGenius Ministership and FistScription.
Hell, BUY YOURSELF A NEW MEMBERSHIP PACK! Have you seen their NEW FORM? For one
thing, they now include UNQUESTIONABLY LEGAL MINISTERIAL ORDINATION MATERIALS
above and beyond your ordainment as a SubGenius; you're also an ordained
minister in the UNIVERSAL LIFE CHURCH, a much better established step-cousin on
"Bob's" sister's side. Also, Memb-packs now come in their own
specially made folder, with much spiffier versions of all the standard
Important Church Documents, and some of it's EVEN IN COLOR!
3. Rise up in the ranks to near-Hierarchy heights by becoming an ACTIVE MEMBER
-- and get the incredible SUBGENIUS MINISTER GOLD CARD! Choose the level at
which you want a DONATION TO THE CHURCH REGULARLY TAKEN FROM YOUR CREDIT CARD
ACCOUNT!
4. JUST PLAIN DONATE!!! GIVE "BOB" FREE MONEY -- FOR NOTHING!!! The
"SOMETHING" that you'll get in return will be... immeasurable. That's

SEE ALT.SLACK on USENET
for the LATEST latest. And
don't just LURK! Lurkers are GHOSTS.
Most of the written material in this website originates on the newsgroup alt.slack, and the artwork often appears first on alt.binaries.slack.
Incidentally
-- don't be discouraged if alt.slack seems utterly chaotic to you at first. It
IS utterly chaotic, and I have no idea how anybody finds time to read it all.
But amidst all the trash is a lot of excellent writing and truly bizarre
educational opportunities.
A newsgroup is a very different animal from a website. In the case of
alt.slack, it's like a big "family," with all the attendant fights,
brawls and inside jokes. As you lurk there you'll start to identify the
"regulars," and sort out those whose posts you like to read and which
ones you can generally skip over. While this website is ruled with iron hand and
vaseline-filled velvet glove by yours truly, Rev. Ivan Stang, alt.slack is
governed only at the whim of J. R. "Bob" Dobbs himself -- which is
about as anarchic as you can get.
In
September '99, I, Stang MOVED TO CLEVELAND.
The Church HQ is still in Texas, and so is Jesus, but I'm running my end by
remote control here at the spaceport. You can READ ALL ABOUT IT and my NEW
ADDRESS and even take a visual tour of the new Palace... for that matter, you
can read every damn thing I've posted to
alt.slack about anything, up until this very instant.
MY NEW EMAIL IS STANG@SUBGENIUS.COM.
Discount all other email links to me that you might see in this website, until
I fix 'em. (Discard "i.stang@subgenius.com" and
"i.stang@metronet.com"). The new FAX number for ME AND Church HQ is 216-320-9528.
This does not affect Church biz at all. Jesus is still
running the business biz at The SubGenius Foundation, PO Box 204206, Austin TX 78720.

THIS "UPDATES" PAGE has been being updated for several years now, and
the previous layers of it form an almost geological history of SubSITE (though
not of the Church itself, which has been public since 1980). The older Updates pages also form a loose "secondary
index" of this gigantic website and an excellent pointer to the real
highlights.
