So now that I've created enough interest in her, it's time that there is a thread dedicated to the greatest artist that ever graced the planet.

Call her gothic. Call her industrial. Call her classical. Call her Victoriandustrial (her own name for it). Call her pop. Call her all of it. You'll be right every time.

She's a total wizard on the harpsichord and violin, and she's not bad to look at, either.

SHOW SOME LUV GUISE

First, and most important question: is she single?

zxlkho · « **Reply #2 on:** April 05, 2011, 12:52:46 AM »

Oh god, she's so amazing.

And sexy.

The Degenerate · « **Reply #3 on:** April 05, 2011, 12:53:56 AM »

Brilliant, brilliant woman

Sigz · « **Reply #4 on:** April 05, 2011, 03:21:17 AM »

Frankly considering how much I love victorian/steampunk stuff I feel like I should like her more than I do; she's always just been someone I occasionally listen to and enjoy rather than someone I really like.

However, she's still good and she gets a lot of undeserved shit for having a lot of fans in the 'overweight nightmare before christmas hot topic teenage girl' demographic.

Looks hawt.
Have not heard the music.

ClairvoyantCat · « **Reply #6 on:** April 05, 2011, 03:37:02 AM »

She's either really hot or she scares me enough that I'm too afraid to not say so.

But her music is awesome.

Autumn identifies as an asexual.[46]

Wait.

Lol.

It's not surprising, really. Some of her songs deal with her resentment of men's desire/attraction to her. Thank God I'm Pretty is the most obvious example.

As attractive as she is, I have a ton of respect for her as a person. She's been through a lot in her life, but she compose incredible music and always maintains a good sense of humor (onstage antics, etc). I do kind of hope people who enter this thread don't just go "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HAWT" and then leave and never return.

tl;dr: Stop drooling and listen to some incredible music made by a woman with a troubled past.

Swallow is a fucking amazing song. I can't stop listening to it.

Just listened to it out of curiosity and it seems pretty cool, I'm gonna have to check her out properly now.

zxlkho · « **Reply #13 on:** April 05, 2011, 08:12:52 AM »

He other stuff is... a bit different.

Recommendations?

Opheliac.

All of it.

Now.

Then try out her other albums. Her other "official studio album" is Enchant, which is a lot different than Opheliac, but it's still damn good.

Also, NEW ALBUM THIS FALL

LeeHarveyKennedy · « **Reply #16 on:** April 05, 2011, 11:08:31 AM »

She's okay. Got Opheliac a while back, and there were some cool things on it, but overall that girl does not know when to end a song.

Zantera · « **Reply #17 on:** April 05, 2011, 11:29:15 AM »

According to Wikipedia, Opheliac is 85 minutes long?!
I haven't heard it, but just by reading that my initial reaction is ZzzZzzzZ. $:\$

It was including both discs. The first disc is the "real" album, the second is outtakes (though some of the songs are quite good), poems, and a Bach composition.

I checked her out on google images now. She creeps me out. Seriously.

Gadough · « **Reply #24 on:** April 05, 2011, 09:39:18 PM »

I honestly can't decide if I find her attractive or not.

Give me one song to listen to. The one song you would recommend to someone who had never heard of her up until now.

Um,

Opheliac
or Swallow
or Misery Loves Company

She's my favorite artist, so I'm a bit biased

But out of those 3... probably Swallow. Yeah, Swallow.

Gadough · « **Reply #26 on:** April 05, 2011, 09:53:24 PM »

Meh, it was ok. I didn't love it. I can see what LHK was saying about how she doesn't know when to end a song. The chorus was repeated way too much near the end. But it wasn't bad. Just not my cup of tea.

Listening to Ophiliac now.

I don't know how to feel to be honest. I like it because it's really different, but at the same time, some of the vocals/vocal effects are kind of off-putting.

"In meeee" part is fucking awesome though.

Actually, I kind of like this. It's drawing me in for some reason. But I think it's gonna take a few more listens before I really appreciate it.

Well, I just listened to Marry Me thanks to your Facebook link, and I liked it much more than Swallow.
