Bridge the Roads by Franka De Mille

My wonderfully talented friend Franka's first album Bridge the Roads releases Autumn 2010! Please visit her beautiful website where you can learn more about the journey she has been on to bring this album to our ears.  You can also listen to samples of her music on the site and there are links for ordering the album.

I invite you all to listen to what I believe is one of the best Goth Folk musical releases of 2010 Bridge the Roads by Franka De Mille.


**Please note that the tri-fold case was for the Christmas Pre-release Special Edition**

Damaris

Patrick Wolf just released the video to the song Damaris off his recently released Bachelor album.  The Damaris video can be seen today exclusively at the Guardian and will be available tomorrow on Patrick's Youtube channel.

How can one man contain that much sexy? Patrick has done it again. I thought he had perfected the art of passionately rolling in the leaf litter for his Tristan video but he has topped himself with Damaris. I am now waiting with bated breath to see him perform this Sunday at the London Palladium. I can't wait. His live show in Boston this Summer was the most amazing show I've ever experienced.

For more information on Patrick Wolf and his music check out my previous blog Goth Folk or visit his official web page.

Goth Folk

I am often asked what kind of music I listen to.  Although I have eclectic musical tastes including goth, industrial, electronic, ebm, symphonic metal, folk, punk, pop, down tempo and classical my favorite music falls under the black umbrella I like to call Goth Folk.

The melodramatic lyrics of Goth Folk music stir the dark poet within me. The amazing talent of the musicians astounds, captivates and holds me in a perpetual state of awe.  Goth Folk often walks the knife edge between discordant and harmonious as if both were tossed into a witch's cauldron and emerged as something so much more.  It is hard to describe this metamorphosis, or the musical creature that emerges but I can promise that it is something that you will want to sink your auditory teeth into.
