Robert William Pickton born in October 24, 1949 of Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada 

I’m sure, if you have been listing to my music for at least the last few years, you would have heard me mention the name, “Willie Pickton” or “Willie” and “Pickton”, in one form or another in a few of my songs. Although this case isn’t based in America, I thought it was an extraordinary story that’s very different from the ‘killer norms’ and more trendy names like Ted Bundy, etc. The fact that Pickton went on a span of crimes from early 1980’s-2002 amazes me and how he was able to fly under the radar for so long. However, he was eventually convicted in 2007 of second-degree murders of six women, and he was also the subject of interest of other cases which yielded evidence of even more murders. 

He ran a pig farm with his younger brother, David, that was passed down by generations of family. By the time he was arrested, Pickton had already transitioned the pig farm to utilize the land for different farming endeavors and would only raise a few pigs to sell to friends and neighbors.

ROBERT PICKTON JUMPING INTO HIS PIGPEN (pictured below):

Willie would drive a rusted pickup truck and invite drug addicted sex workers, also often referred to as “strawberries”, many of which came from Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. To him, they were easy, vulnerable targets that he was able to lure in with the promise of money and/or drugs in exchange for sex. Once he gets them back to the “piggy palace”, as it was known, it was all downhill from there. In court documents, Pickton was known to feed his victims to some of his pigs as a means of disposal and getting rid of the evidence. He would usually use syringes filled with antifreeze to inject his victims which gave a five to ten minute window before they’ve succumbed. Pickton would also butcher and dispose any remnants of the victims throughout his putrid, junkyard-like property.

****************************************************

****************************************************

On the night he was arrested, he was set up to room with an undercover agent in hopes of coaxing more information from the boondock madman. The plan worked in law enforcement’s favor as he released details in the form of a wild, pessimistic confession since he admittedly failed to meet his ‘intended’ body count. The conversation with his cell mate was captured on audio and video.

Below is Part One of the actual jail cell footage and is a demented two-part series:

Part Two: 

I can’t pinpoint just one aspect of this case that caught my attention since there’s so many twists and turns; it’s an ‘almost’ never ending gory story. Mostly, in my opinion, he was a skinny, meek, unkempt and unsuspecting neighborly farmer, meanwhile, he was targeting the vulnerable and desperate women around town. I also don’t believe he did all of this by himself – he had confessed to killing 49 women; it just seems like a lot of work and coverup work for one individual. Then again, those you least suspect are sometimes the ultimate culprits.

Below is a photo of the missing women police believe Pickton may be connected with in their disappearances:

*As of March 2, 2006, the murder charge involving the unidentified victim has been lifted. Pickton refused to enter a plea on the charge involving this victim, known in the proceedings as Jane Doe, so the court registered a not-guilty plea on his behalf. “The count as drawn fails to meet the minimal requirement set out in Section 581 of the Criminal Code. Accordingly, it must be quashed”, wrote Justice James Williams. The detailed reasons for the judge’s ruling cannot be reported in Canada because of the publication ban covering this stage of the trial.

If you have time, watch the documentary below for a in-depth details of ROBERT “WILLIE” PICKTON:

What’s good, everyone? I hope everybody has been getting through okay during these unstable times. 2020 was a re-start for everybody, including myself. When I dropped Daydreams of Crime Scenes in March of 2020, I thought to myself, what kind of luck is this? It actually worked out better than I expected. I know I don’t post much as I used to on my social media pages, but I’m gonna try to do a bit more of it. However, that’s not my main focus. If you’ve been supporting my work, you should all know the website is the place to go for any updates I may have.

So here’s one of many to come- a quick heads up where I’m at with things and what 2022 will look like. If you haven’t noticed the new KARDIAC MUSIC logo, it has been re-designed and polished up just right. At this very moment, I’m in the studio working on a few different things. You’ll start to see them drop, most likely, in early 2022. It’s ‘Hard to Keep a Secret’, but I will say this – we will be adding a new, but familiar, face to the KARDIAC release roster. I’m very stoked about what’s to come; I wish I could let you all know now, but it will be well worth the wait. I believe it’s something the Kardiac Music brand needed as a whole and something that’s completely unexpected. That’s all I can say as of right now, but I promise, you wont have to wait for it as long as you did for Daydreams of Crime Scenes lol. We’re on a much faster track and early 2022 is the target. Prep your fixed eyes for the sensory overload coming soon. As always, thanks to everyone who has continued to support what we do. We’ll will see you all in 2022!

DEAD INSIDE

First Verse:
Such a force of nature when it’s human vs beast,
They must of tore through her crotch and left the baby chewed up in leaves,
Traditional tribes survive sticking by code,
Whatever the wolves leave behind they pick off the bones,
To feed a snake they don’t need a lot,
You grab the rat by its legs and smack its head on a rock,
50 PETA supporters died because of their side talk,
When all’s you try to do was make music on the side walk,
He prayed to God the night she started having contractions,
3 months in was too early for this to happen,
In his palm kissing a dead fetus,
Now it hangs in his rear view whenever delivers pizzas,
When you fuck the dead your sperm automatically dies,
Cause there’s too many chemicals exploding inside,
That’s why she’s bloated and dry, who that be you ask,
They girl up in the tree with her organs pull out through her ass.

Hook:
Lollygag, Lollygag, with all of your friends as much as you want,
You’re all completely dead inside, enjoy your high,

Second Verse:
They got her down and dragged her in the boat,
Her face ate away from the rain water and mosquitoes,
Like something out of “Predator” fed from her,
Left a nest of eggs in her back to keep them safe till they hatch,
There was a rotting smell in the breeze and,
It’s so strong you get a taste when you breathe in,
Music enlightens Satan when I sing songs,
Run a blade up your chest plate while the head barely hangs on,
They know what I did and want my bones and skin,
Started a fire in my yard and danced with dead chickens,
Pounding on drums during their voodoo rituals,
Planning to burn my house down in beliefs I am the devil,
I adore you more when your under my floor boards,
Where the lights dark getting covered with animal bite marks,
Close the shades and take no calls,
A Bible bed time story decaying in my walls.

Hook:
Lollygag, Lollygag, with all of your friends as much as you want,
You’re all completely dead inside, enjoy your high,

Time flies when you lose count of the victims. KARDIAC has been discarding corpses in remote areas for most of 2021, so when the time comes, there’ll be stacks of evidence to thumb through. They say history repeats itself and that rings true for some, but not for KARDIAC. He has been consumed by demons in alternate dimensions and his persona has shifted with it.

We went on a frigid ride through “Daydreams of Crime Scenes,” but now it’s time to crank up the heat…buckle up for the next vivid journey. No need to tiptoe in to check the temperature; we dove head first in the deep end for this next project. We’ll send some solar flares throughout the winter to keep you all safe from hypothermia. Keep an eye out for the beacon in the sky when we signal the call to arms. You’ll be able to feel the ecstasy emanating…take a few hits then meet us at the dive bar. Bring a few bucks to toss on stage, but be wary of the hypnotic twilight zone-like twirls…you’ll lose touch with reality.

We’re stomping out the last bit of flames from this hellish year.

As the temperature drops for the winter so have the prices at the KARDIAC Merch Store.

The crime scenes were conjured up in KARDIAC‘s daydreams, but we unknowingly prepped for the pandemic with masks and gloves which were used in “The Evidence Bags” promo video.

Similar odd occurrences have transpired in the midst of previous releases as well. The other bugged out incidences will circulate as the doom and gloom era clears, but in short, another twisted tale involves the “Play God” single release. After shooting the promo photos for “Play God“, 3 separate fires erupted and surrounded that house over the 6 weeks that followed. Still, even now, we consider “Play God” to be one of our most cursed releases. We’re relieved that “Daydreams” tapped into KARDIAC‘s subconscious versus his nightmares.

Scathed but still standing, we’re clawing our way through this callous year, and hope all of you are doing well.

If you have yet to witness what KARDIAC did “The Night Of“, now is your time! Snatch up any remaining KARDIAC Merch before 2020 gets washed away along with all of our sins.

I’m sure some of you may have noticed the website was down for a few days. We ran into some problems with the SSL and now changed back to it’s original format of http instead of https.

Things may change as we continue to do updates throughout the website within the coming weeks ahead.

Now, only four days away, the “Evidence Bags” are ready to be torn open and fully examined. Extreme measures have been taken to make sure that no stone was left unturned. Different options will be available for pre-order this Friday, February 28th 2020. If you want to collect more than just a CD and a poster, there will be two variations of Evidence Bags to choose from. Take a “Second Glance” and notice the grizzly differences between “Evidence Bag #1” & “Evidence Bag #2”:

Turn the blinds down and crank the volume up. Take a stroll with KARDIAC as he reflects on “The Night Of.” This eerily hypnotizing track is the first ear-worm to hit your speakers in nearly 5 years. As Fangoria Musick’s corpse decomposed, KARDIAC was in the basement piecing together the limbs and organs for “Daydreams of Crime Scenes”. We clawed our way out of the grave plot to provide evidence for this cold case. The risk of Death Row is child’s play compared to the nightmarish visions KARDIAC drifted in and out of within this wicked album.

Prep your psyche as KARDIAC takes you through “The Night Of” from “Daydreams of Crime Scenes.”
