First off, “Ugly Art” breaking souls is not talking about breaking actual souls. He clearly says effect, “art’s mightiest effect.” Art doesn’t move actual stones.

Frankly, i might disagree that those are Art’s mightiest effects. Bringing beauty and pleasure is art’ greatest accomplishment.

Yes, there is plenty of room for the ugly in art.

Not my favorite album of his but an interesting adventure nonetheless which is gradually growing on me. It will be nice if the metal quotient of his solo work returns next time.

The point Nietzche was trying to make here, is that art of the “ugly soul” is the one that has a transcendental impact.
Pretty “metal” statement if you want to see it that way.

Good album, it´s clear he needed this experiment to evolve.
