The Beautiful Horror...music for the maladjusted
Imagine equal measures of plaintive melancholy, passionate mellifluousness and thrasonical bombast set against a kaleidoscopic soundscape. It’s difficult isn’t it? And that’s why it had to be created.
Hailing from Brighton, Jemima Price and Virginia van Kan crossed paths in 2004. "Sacred" is the intriguing mix that has risen from that fated meeting.
Together "Sacred" creates powerfully dramatic and moody music that almost haunts the listener. While drawing influences from a foundation of artists such as Evanescence, Garbage, & Marylin Manson it's little wonder how Sacred has been able to build their music up to the furious heights it's reached today--and why they show no signs of slowing down!
Once the course was set, the controls were opened full throttle to deliver an album of dark-side music for the maladjusted, music that captures beauty in darkness.
Jemima Price: “We wanted to create music that was shadowy and haunting yet beautiful and dramatic, that would give you goose bumps for both reasons."
Independently released on their "Phobia" label, their CD "The Beautiful Horror" (Inspired by a line from Apocolypse Now) is only available for purchase on the web & through their MySpace pages. Even so, Sacred has seen incredible sales and an overwhelming reaction to their brand of music.
Virginia van Kan: “We’ve been overwhelmed by the response we’ve received, both to the album, and the shows. There’s been a massive reaction on the net.”
So much of a reaction in fact, Sacred's moody & dark tracks will soon be featured in movies and on shows such as CSI. So start paying attention to the music of your favorite movies and television shows in the near future, there's a good chance you'll hear Sacred providing the soundtrack.
