Audiovile is Michael Arnzen at his weirdest and, well, most vile. Known for his entertaining and over-the-top readings he now takes it one step further with the addition of some musical madness. This is not so much an audiobook as it is an album of flash fiction, a truly unique experience. Most of the 16 tracks are taken from the ground-breaking short story collection 100 Jolts but the CD also includes some new material.

* Obictionary (2:14)

What They’re Saying About Audiovile

“This collection of recordings will disturb and entertain you for more reasons than the obvious; remember the first time you heard The Doors’ ‘The End’ and Jim Morrison’s long, chilling soliloquy in the middle? Or theAn American Prayer album — an audio suicide note set to music? The pieces on Audiovile often put me in mind of these moments, because they disturbed me on the same, visceral level — but because these pieces are based on the works on Mike Arnzen, there’s also a lot of simple, weird fun to be had, as well, and the musicianship displayed throughout is flawless. A genuine one-of-kind recording.”
—Gary A. Braunbeck, Bram stoker and International Horror Guild Award-winning author of Destinations Unknown, Prodigal Blues, and Mr. Hands

“This CD contains thirteen of the most base, quirky, bizarre and vile tracks. That’s a bakers dozen of depravity where the listener is treated to musical renditions of some of Mike’s short shorts, many of which can be found in his collection 100 Jolts…While not every track is a hit, there are more than enough laugh out loud, make you cringe moments for me to recommendAudioVile, which caters to those among us who are just a bit twisted.”
