I'm your Opheliac

Emilie Autumn is not your regular piece of bread. She could quite easily be called a musical marvel, with a distinct personality. Leaving aside the normal amount of eccentricity you would expect from an estabilished american song-writer and singer who looks like a renaissance fucked-up doll, it is a known fact that she suffers from bipolar disorder.







Emilie began playing the violin at the age of 4, and activated her photographic memory while trying to memorize Pachebel's Canon.

She attented the Music Conservatory but quit after 2 years, wishing to leave a climate that blamed and ostracized her for being different.

Her musical style brings together a wide range of influences, mixed up into a very personal, whimsical blend. Classical meets medieval, rock, even a hint of electronic in some songs.

Emilie worked with Courtney Love and Billy Corgan, a collaboration she now regrets, because she was asked way too many times to "pee in an orange juice cup" for fake drug tests, as she declares in an interview.

She has 5 released albums so far, and is preparing an autobiographical illustrated coffee-table book. Since Emilie took her spot on the musical scene, she has been setting the goth fans on fire with her dark, wonderfully meaningful lyrics and unusual but ethereal sound.

Mad as a duck, or wildly innocent, there has to be at least a little part in each of us that Emilie Autumn appeals to.
