Turning Golem is the bastard child of the constellations known as Vulture Industries and Happy Gorilla Dance Company. It is part concert rooted in the heavier segment of experimental/progressive metal and part theater performance. Turning Golem is about the relative subject of “truth” and how systems are built and torn down in endless repetition.
