Skinny Puppy frontman and star of REPO! THE GENETIC OPERA and 2001 MANIACS: FIELD OF SCREAMS, Nivek Ogre wants you to meet “Mr. Brownstone.” The iconic cult industrial/electronic rock vocalist is on the road to unleashing COLLIDOSKOPE, the fourth album from his side project oHgr, later this year, and—in true cryptic Ogre fashion—has devised a series of diabolical mysteries for fans to decipher.

“We’re rolling out the album with a series of puzzles uploaded from Brownstone to the ohGr Facebook page,” Ogre (whose real name is Kevin Ogilvie) tells Fango of his latest alter ego, the main character of his abstract new concept album. “Mr. Brownstone never uses computers to compose his ‘messages.’ Visitors can try to solve the puzzles, and if they’re successful, they can win these very cool, well-crafted mystery boxes, sent to them free of charge. They’re one-of-a-kind keepsakes.”

To follow the eerie trail of bread crumbs, log in to your Facebook account and visit the page here. Good luck! And for further mind-bending journeys into Ogre’s weird world, check out the official ohGr site and the official Skinny Puppy home page. Look for a chat with Ogre in Fango #295, on sale in June, as part of our coverage of FIELD OF SCREAMS, which hits DVD and Blu-ray from First Look July 20.
