Miserylab – About The Now

Biography
Leeds, United Kingdom (1998 – present)
“goths never die - they just get older … fortunately - Porl King [ex-Rosetta Stone] instead - got wiser … forget dumb gothic cliches of ‘darkness’ and ‘nocturnal skies’ - this is the brightest post-punk we’ve heard from liverpools darkest light - so bright in fact - he’s moved to leeds … a self-proclaimed ‘medicated follower of fashion’ - Miserylab smash the narcotic mirror against mindless consumerism and insipid vanity” —-wound magazine
From Wikipedia —- Miserylab is the main music project of Porl King, formed in the late nineties after the disbanding of Rosetta Stone in 1998. The project was originally conceived as a moniker for remix and production purposes, such as work done for My Vitriol and the mercury music award winning Elbow. The name was originally spelt “misery:lab” – but King chose to remove the colon in order to make it easier to find in Internet search engines. The name can be seen as both a serious comment on animal experimentation, and a self-deprecating comment on himself and his musical output. A number of tracks were written in 2000, but were not released whilst production work remained the priority.
In 2005 King created a profile on myspace, reworking and uploading some of his early miserylab material. In 2007 four of these tracks were made available as a free download, complete with downloadable artwork, known as the Vaporware Ep.
