‘Tis the season…

October 23rd, 2008

One of my favorite quotes is:

“…gravitate towards those who do what they do, with abandon, with passion, without reserve, without excuse or apology; who live, love, wish, hate, and dream… fully; who scream, cry, laugh or listen, like it’s their last time ever; who fly, fall, play, fight, blaze and delight with every fiber of their being…” –XN

Kristen Lawrence is one of those people. She’s a magical creature and Gothic Queen. A classically trained organist, she has thrown herself into one of her passions–Halloween. 

Her new album, Arachnitect, is a ‘grave’ display of her special talents in musical composition, keyboard, and vocal performance. Her voice is that of a mystical siren singing tunes wrapped in eery organ & instrumentals.

My suggestion for the season? Toss the passe old Halloween cd’s filled with fakey sound effects (you know, doors creeking and someone falling off a cliff), and get the real thing!!!
