Keith Moss - Torture In Paradise

[Kleberson]

Hello all, and thanks to Mike for this site.

My name is Keith Moss, I'm a musician and songwriter from Ireland with a deep interest in the Zodiac case ever since I stumbled upon a reference to it in a True Crime book about ten years ago. I then ordered Robert Graysmith's 'Zodiac' book which really ignited my fascination with this inscrutable, complex and uniquely-puzzling case.

Soon after finishing 'Zodiac' I wrote a song about the Zodiac case called 'Torture In Paradise' and later I was signed to a record deal with Reekus Records, who last month released this song as a single, which has gotten great reviews from the likes of Hot Press (the Irish equivalent of Rolling Stone magazine). The story of Zodiac is not well-known in Ireland at all. Zodiac-watchers will surely recognise the many references to his letters and case details in the lyrics. Here it is if you'd like to check it out:

(There are two videos - one is the main video and the other is a clip I painstakingly put together at home which relates the story in a more literal way)

Keith, welcome. I checked out the song, pretty cool, seems to have a Moby feel or vibe. Good luck with it.

Thanks Mike, very kind of you to take the time to say.

Thanks again for the site, a true treasure-trove for us Zodiac-ologists!
All the best, Keith

Welcome Keith.

It's the turn of the Irish to take over. I'll check the tune later.

Trav.

Haha, nice one Trav

[traveller1st]

Very nice, like that a lot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cL_IfN_no-Y

I'm assuming and guessing that the video is shot in Dublin. It's just that if it is I think I recognise this doorway/shop front. It looks like the one my friends and I nearly ended up in sleeping in after a particularly disastrous/hilarious May Day trip one year many moons ago. It involved absinthe and waiting for the train to Belfast at a dart station at 2am (says it all really).

Here's some of my c**p from about 10 years ago.https://soundcloud.com/traveller1st

and here's what some of the guy's are up to now in their continuing music activities. http://www.lo-fifunfactory.com/

Right you are Trav! It was indeed shot in Dublin, that shot was done on Grafton Street. Absinthe without leave eh?!
2am at a DART station - talk about between a rock and a hard place! Glad you made it out of the swamp.

Cheers for the Soundcloud link, followed you on there. Incidentally we're (my band and I) going to be on RTE1 (radio) playing live this evening at 7.35pm if you're near a radio.

We must have a proper Zodiac-related chinwag one of these days too
