Galaxy of Flesh (Galaktyka Mięsa) is a sound-visual duo operating at the intersection of experimental music, performance, and post-internet body horror. The artists come from Wrocław’s independent scene and co-founded the label Ubocze, through which they consistently redefine the boundaries of sonic narration within the context of contemporary auditory practices. Their work addresses themes of corporeality, transformation, alienation, and ritual in a world of degraded everyday life. They create alternative languages of expression inspired by the aesthetics of early sci-fi, glitch art, and the absurdities of corporate culture. Their recording debut, Galaxy Of Flesh OST (2023), was conceived as a soundtrack to a non-existent film—an AI-generated piece whose visuals serve both as point of departure and a constellation of references for the entire project. In 2024, the duo released their second full-length album, Lejek bólu (The Funnel of Pain), through Zoharum and Ubocze Rec. The album is an amalgam of post-industrial, krautrock, and electronic avant-garde, layered with texts and vocal samples from films and radio plays that revolve around themes of pain, decay, and spiritual surgery. Galaxy of Flesh’s live performances are performative rituals—audio-visual ceremonies where raw beats, repetition, and vocal expression collide with filmic collages assembled from commercials, documentaries, and forgotten monsters of cinema.
