I must admit that I've fallen in love with Emilie Autumn over the last week or so. Her new CD 'Opheliac' arrived on my doorstep late last week and I finally got round to listening to it on Sunday night. It is fantastic.
Think of a deranged mixture of The Dresden Dolls and Tori Amos. For some reason she seems to have quite a large goth following (but then I guess so do the aforementioned artists...) and certainly lists a whole load of goth and industrial bands as influences on her work.
She's also incredibly cute - but don't let that influence your enjoyment of her music which is fantastic regardless :p

From her Myspace page: "Combine the violin mastery of Nigel Kennedy, the voice of an alien Siouxsie/Bowie hybrid, and the looks of a post-apocalyptic Marie Antoinette, and what do you get? Emilie Autumn. The pink-haired princess of "victoriandustrial" has already morphed her way from classically trained violin prodigy to extreme rock performer with the ability to shred on a fiddle à la Yngwie, and with a cult following to match."

Between Emilie and White Rose Movement I'm doing pretty well this year aren't I :p
Btw, did you get the email I sent from work the other day?
Saying that, there are a ton of US bands I'd like to see over here and I could probably put the money to other, more constructive uses :p
But still, I can dream...
*goes to listen to the music*
expect more commenting later :)
I try and jot down names of bands that I like the sound of and want to know more and then look them up once I'm on line. You can usually find tracks from most artists online these days which is a great way of listening to what they're like before buying.
Maybe we should start up a new LJ Community called 'Love Music' or something that everyone can use to suggest new/old bands :)
After the holidaze spending is overwith her CD is going on my shopping list.
She gives me hope that my V&B womens-wear has a future (if the photo shoot ever gets done). 'victoriandustrial asylum' describes it very well!
If you arn't playing the Cd continuously, can I borrow it tonight? :-)
Amazon reports out of stock, as does play... Where csn I get it online, or am I going to have to *gasp* step foot into a bricks and morter ahop? ;)
That's where I got mine :)
