Just
barely a breath after the worldwide success
of "Opheliac,"
EA emerges yet again from her studio she
calls "The Asylum"
with her latest work, "Laced
/ Unlaced," a Double
Disc set featuring, no, not her
voice, but her violin skills.
Disc
1, "Laced," represents
her past, containing the worldwide release
of EA's rare teenage classical violin
recordings including works by Corelli,
Bach, Leclair,
and EA's own original compositions, all
performed on period baroque instruments
with lute, harpsichord, and cello accompaniment.
Also included on "Laced"
are several of EA's never-before-released
live classical recordings featuring
some of the most virtuosic violin playing
we've ever heard.
Disc
2, "Unlaced," represents
her future, in a metal-shredding,
Yngwie-meets-Paganini-styled romp performed
on her famously striped and bloodied
electric violin. Written in the
"Victoriandustrial,"
harpsichord-laden style of "Opheliac"
but with a relentless, metal edge,
"Laced / Unlaced" shows
the evolution from child-prodigy classical
violinist to reigning queen of the "shredolin,"
and beckons us ever deeper into EA's strange
world of torturous insane asylums with a
flick of her black-nail-polished fingertips.
This
strictly limited edition comes in an oversized
hardcover double CD book filled
with exclusive photos from inside
EA's "Asylum",
EA's hand-written scores from the
album, and personal notes and drawings.
As beautiful to look at as to listen to,
this 'behind the scenes' look into
the world of EMILIE AUTUMN and her music
makes it a collector's 'must have'.
