How does Scott Conner (Xasthur) manage to support himself financially?

In several interviews or documentaries I've seen of him, he often mentions that he's never been able to hold down a job for long, and that he's only ever had a small number of jobs regardless.

How is he managing to live in California?

Does his music really make him that much? Does he have a hidden source of income? Was he born into wealth? Was he left a huge inheritance?

Who’s That One Band/Singer?

hey whats that one fucking metal guy thats into like border line nazi shit and does like self harm and drugs on stage? i was thinking about bands that were banned from performing. this artist RARELY toured especially in the US and especially not in AZ. the the owner of the club cancelled the show for no given reason but probably due to the liability him and the band posed.

every thing i look up keeps saying gg alin and mayhem and its literally not.

he has like a short word for a name??

i would ask my partner who’s the one that showed me but he is no longer with us…

EDIT: Its Shining

Any fans of Xasthur's Nocturnal Poisoning here? Every time I listen to this album, I hear new things every time. Amazing album, a true masterpiece in every sense.

Any news on Arkhon Infaustus ?

I know I know, you might say why don't I ask this in the death metal subreddit, but their style is blackened death metal and their black metal elements is well done.

Anyways, I haven't heard much of them doing shows and maybe due to the fact that Deviant Von Blakk is doing more with Osculum Infame. No new material since 2017, and no live performances either in a while.

Anybody know anything of their current status and what is going on with Arkhon Infaustus currently ?
