YayKirsty: Emilie Autumn

Emilie Autumn

Okay, she's really quite different to Muse but she's still pretty much my second favourite musician. I think I've liked her longer than I've liked Muse, but she's not as all-roundly epic as Muse.
Anyway, enough about Muse.

Emilie Autumn. I have a massive girl-crush on her. And why-ever not?! She's sexy as hell!

Even without her sexy-ass make-up she's still beautiful...

And this is why I must go to an EA gig...as well as all the fucking tea and girl-kissing!!

As well as visual eye-candy, she's also the alternative person's ear-candy. She has a very distinctive sound which has changed a hell of a lot since her debut album, 'Enchant'. I'd say her music has a very acquired tasted, and sometimes, some of the studio stuff doesn't capture the full beauty of her voice, although she has a large vocal range and dexterity.

Her debut, 'Enchant', had a wide variety of different music within it - hip-hop, swing, jazz, rock, etc, but they all had an EA twist which always included harpsichords and violins, and that has been the distinctive theme throughout her entire career.
Her genre of music has been described as victorindustrial, merging industrial, gothic music with instruments of the Victorian era.
She has many different albums, one of which, 'Laced/Unlaced', is just filled with fantastic instrumentals.
