The thing that pisses me off most about Emilie autumn posting shitty AI art and pretending she painted is that she actually IS a talented artist, with a distinct style which makes it all the easier to know the art isn't actually hers.

Why not just post some of that? It all makes no sense and she's making it worse by treating people like idiots.

And the way she dug out some old work (totally randomly of course) to try and show it's not too different is a real pisstake.

RockLove has re-released the Victorian Heart Necklace!

RockLove’s inaugural Victorian Collection was founder and designer Allison Cimino’s very first line launched in Fall 2007, before the RockLove brand becoming her full-time career in March 2008. The series consisted of earrings, necklaces and bracelets created around two pendant styles: an acanthus fleur-de-lis and a swirling cutout filigree heart. Both were cast replicas of antique Victorian originals and paired with oversized or multi-stranded bundles of chains, oxidized in various grey tones, establishing RockLove’s historical-meets-rock-n-roll style.

This necklace was originally released in 2007 in a sponsorship/collaboration with Emilie Autumn.

Emilie Autumn, RockLove's favorite pink-haired sultry crumpet, was our first official collaboration. Her "victoriandustrial" violin and vocal sound and captivating asylumn-escapee style captured our imagination. Emilie debuted a matching Josephine Chain Bracelet and Necklace in Heart, in addition to piece inspired exclusively by her, the Emilie Silk Choker in Heart, at the Wave Gottik Treffen 2007 in Germany. Since then, we have had the pleasure of meeting countless wonderful EA fans and have plans with Emilie to produce exclusive EA Merch jewelry in the future. (x)

Just barely a breath after the worldwide success of "Opheliac," EA emerges yet again from her studio she calls "The Asylum" with her latest work, "Laced / Unlaced," a Double Disc set featuring, no, not her voice, but her violin skills.

Disc 1, "Laced," represents her past, containing the worldwide release of EA's rare teenage classical violin recordings including works by Corelli, Bach, Leclair, and EA's originals, all performed on period baroque instruments with lute, harpsichord, and cello accompaniment. Also included on "Laced" are several of EA's never-before-heard live classical recordings featuring some of the most virtuosic violin playing we've ever heard.

Disc 2, "Unlaced," represents her future, in an electric-violin, Yngwie-meets-Paganini-styled romp. Written in the "Victoriandustrial", harpsichord-laden Gothic style of "Opheliac" but with a metal edge, "Laced / Unlaced" shows the evolution from child-prodigy classical violinist to reigning queen of metal-shredding, Gothic/Industrial violin, and beckons us ever deeper into EA's strange world with a flick of her black-nail-polished fingers.

This strictly limited edition comes in an oversized hardcover double CD book filled with exclusive photos from inside EA's "Asylum", EA's hand-written scores from the album, and personal notes and drawings. As beautiful to look at as to listen to, this 'behind the scenes' look into the world of EMILIE AUTUMN and her music makes it a collector's 'must have'.

Her social media now is depressing, I feel like she is forcing herself into being a stereotype of her former self. Hate to say it but Emilie needs to accept being a has-been and move on with her life, find something else to do. It's not a bad thing, people change and her whole Asylum/victoriandustrial style has been played out years ago, the musical is never happening, just let it go. Of course though that would mean her narc supply drying out, so she'd never do it

About Emilie Autumn

Brought up as a concert violinist since age four, and trained in conservatoires as a composer, conductor, and music historian, Emilie's bizarre background manifests itself in her myriad musical and literary creations. Releasing records ranging from classical to gothic rock to her cult-intelligentsia following, EA is also a prolific writer and illustrator, releasing and quickly selling out of her first volume of poetry in 2001. EA is currently putting the finishing touches on the illustrations for her gothic children's book for adults only, "The Alphabet Book of X-Boyfriends," while preparing for the release of her upcoming "victoriandustrial" album, "Opheliac."

Originally from Malibu, California, EA is now a proud Chicagoan, and can most often be found at nightspots such as the Metro and DoubleDoor as well as cavorting around the city's downtown in her Victorian bustle skirt, corset, and combat boots, attracting a ridiculous amount of attention.

I bought a waist cincher today, because I’ve loved the aesthetic since my adolescent EA phase.

Don't think for a beat it makes it better when you sit her down and tell her everything's gonna be all right. She knows in society she either is a devil or an angel with no in between. She speaks in the third person, so she can forget that she's me."》♡ }

The Story Section of her old website:

"Combine the violin mastery of Nigel Kennedy, the voice of an alien Siouxsie/Bowie hybrid, and the looks of a post-apocalyptic Marie Antoinette, and what do you get? Emilie Autumn. The pink-haired princess of "victoriandustrial" has already morphed her way from classically trained violin prodigy to extreme rock performer with the ability to shred on a fiddle à la Yngwie, and with a cult following to match.

After spending a summer in France recording with Courtney Love at Ms. Love's express command, Emilie was invited to join Love's touring band,"The Chelsea," and was appropriately dubbed the "anarchy violinist" by Love. Next thing you knew, she was performing live on The Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and on national television with Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins fame, while appearing on the solo debut albums of both Corgan and Love. Emilie quickly gained attention as a solo performer in her own right, and was chosen as one of Interview Magazine's "14 To Be," a pictorial featuring 14 up-and-coming young female stars. Shot by famed fashion photographer Kelly Klein, and wearing a Helmut Lang gown while sprawled on a large wooden tea crate, Emilie was chosen as the magazine's centerfold posing with her signature electric violin. Now, EA is setting her sights on the rest of the world with the release of her new album, "Opheliac" on the Trisol Music Group label, released in Europe on the 1st of September 2006, and worldwide on the 22nd.

BACKGROUND:

Brought up as a concert violinist since age four, and trained in conservatoires around the world as a performer, composer, conductor, and music historian, EA's bizarre background is the element that makes her music so exceptional. The blending of authentic baroque strings, harpsichord, and factory-derived industrial beats with vocal techniques from soul-searing belts to snarling screams creates an positively dangerous feel, only compounded by EA's dark and uber-literate lyrics.

After walking away from her first major label contract at age 17, EA returned to her classical roots and released her solo violin debut album, "On a Day...," with the label she created and still controls, the aptly titled Traitor Records. Since the creation of her own production company, EA has branched out to create a number of side projects (The Jane Brooks Project, Ravensong, Convent), and is delighted to be collaborating with other artists including Detroit techno legend DJT1000, UK industrial giant, Attrition, fellow Chicagoans, Die Warzau, and many more creative entities ranging from industrial legends to television shows (EA frequently contributes her violin playing to the hit American TV series "Metalocalypse," a cartoon about a ficitional metal band airing weekly on Adult Swim).

With Enchant a proven success in the indie world, Emilie returned from two years of touring and recording with Love to begin production on her second full-length non-classical offering entitled, "Opheliac." Written in the style EA calls "victoriandustrial," her new heavily industrial sound takes "gothic" to a whole new level - sinister, witty, and combining her trademark violin pyrotechnics with growling vocals, virtuosic harpsichord, and electro-industrial beats. A concept album about "women, water, and madness," song titles include, "Gothic Lolita," "Dead Is The New Alive," "The Art Of Suicide," "I Want My Innocence Back", and "Misery Loves Company."

EA's previous releases include the solo violin debut album, "On a Day...," recorded at age 17 and showcasing her mastery of the baroque violin, "By The Sword," her charity single in response to the 9/11 attacks, "Chambermaid," her first goth-rock EP, and of course, "Enchant." Emilie also appears on Courtney Love's 2004 release, "America's Sweetheart" on Virgin Records, and is a featured guest on Billy Corgan's 2005 solo release, "The Future Embrace" on Warner Records.

OTHER ACTIVITIES:

When EA is not recording or touring, she designs for "Mistress," her own fashion and fragrance line for her own indie-couture company, WillowTech House. Notorious for her own visionary "punktorian" stage costumes, EA's design skills were put to use when she was asked to design and create all of the costumes for the music video for "Walking Shade," Corgan's first single off his 2005 album, directed by P.R. Brown.

EA is also a prolific writer and illustator, releasing and quickly selling out of her first volume of poetry in 2001. 2005 saw the release of her second poetry edition complete with audio version entitled, "Your Sugar Sits Untouched," offered by WillowTech House Publishing. EA is currently putting the finishing touches on the illustrations for her gothic children's book for adults only, "The Alphabet Book of X-Boyfriends."

Originally from Malibu, California, EA is now a proud Chicagoan, and can most often be found at nightspots such as the Metro, Neo, and DoubleDoor as well as cavorting around the city's downtown in her Victorian bustle skirt, corset, and combat boots, attracting a ridiculous amount of attention.

The End.

For now..."

I never treated her as someone I could relate to, even though I'm depressed, I used to be a cutter and find some of the stuff in her book diaries relatable. I always liked her because of the music (victoriandustrial, eventually started liking Enchant too). So she's never been important to me as much as she is/used to be for some of her fans. Perhaps because I got into her as an adult, not in early teens and past 2014, and I think it's only for the better in a way.
