A MELODYC SHIVERING FORM [NO](Oct. 23 @ BLÆST)
Vidar Schiefloe KKXV: Blæst Tuesday October 23 A Melodyc Shivering Form is a creature that grows in the brains of Vidar Schiefloe, and sometimes forcing him to make noise with whatever he may have available.

A Melodyc Shivering Form is an anagram of “edgy Hanover microfilms” and “Adolf covering shimmery”, but that doesn’t necessarily mean anything in relation to any of this.
