Edrie (Vox, pretty, toys, slut, broken) **************************************************************
I am doing what i have always done playing music in the dark alone and sometimes with dolls and squids. music that is made with wires, toy drums and ghosts. **************************************************************
The Optic Rose stage show is "intensely theatrical," "controlled chaos" and "food for nightmares." The stage is lined with various antique dolls, and Mary and Walter's antics are inspired by the Victorian theater Grand Guingol. blood, leaves and broken tea kettles. **************************************************************
"Unf***ing believable, I was repulsed and turned on at the same time...When I got home I didn't know whether I should masturbate or cry in the shower...real rock and roll should be dirty and scary and make people think, and you guys are real rock and roll!" -Matt of Senator Whatley **************************************************************
"Satanic is too jolly a word for it...There were tea pot sets - plastic and ceramic - destroyed on stage, pints of fake blood used for dollie autopsies and the like, cupie masturbation (holy mother of God, I'm speechless). Let us not forget Walter tearing out at least three to four dreads from Mary's head (not joshing you here - he ripped them OUT OF HER HEAD and then tied them to his mike cord while continuing to sing). Suffice it to say, once again, this duo managed to scare the bejeezus out of me and any who were in attendance **************************************************************
Optic Rose recently joined Boston's "Ominous Collective:" A group of musicians, artists and actors dedicated to " Make art which is different, interesting, and potentially dangerous to the status quo" ************************************************************** **************************************************************
Optic rose is a musical portrait of soiled childhood dreams, degradation, murder, and all of mans most hidden thoughts. A place were the audience meets them selves... "hell and the 21 century" **************************************************************
"perhaps the tight-knit Optic Rose share a unique non-Western attitude about death being just another part of life. From the song Mk: I am the end light 1942, U and M and I---anyone whose ever visited war-destroyed cities in Europe or elsewhere can relate to the eerie feeling that there may be souls floating under the pavement. Optic Rose wants to bring them to the surface for you." Leah Callahan
