Critically acclaimed emerging vocalist Julie Christmas has been recognized as one of the most unique new figures in the contemporary underground music scene. During 2008, Christmas will build on her metal and rock repertoire, releasing two full-length albums and a special limited edition split with bands: Made Out of Babies, Battle of Mice and Spylacopa, as well as making several exciting guest appearances. At the same time, Christmas signals her exploration of new territory by scoring a controversial independent French film and creating her first body of collaborations and solo work for an album she intends to call “The Bad Wifeâ€.
PRESS:
L.A TIMES:
"Julie Christmas, a woman who takes the art of screaming to new levels....Christmas replaces the testosterone and male athleticism characteristic of those bands [Nine Inch Nails and The Jesus Lizard] with her signature hysteria". -Casey Dolan. Dec.'06
DECIBEL MAGAZINE:
"Metal's most riveting frontwoman...a smart, eccentric post-kid just becoming aware of the unearthly power she wields". -Rod Smith. Jan.'07
TIME OUT NEW YORK:
"Expanded vocal techniques aside, she's [Christmas] a compelling straight-ahead singer, shuttling gracefully between sweet and feral.....one of Rock's most harrowing performances
ever".
REVOLVER:
"Julie Christmas sings, screams, snarls and sobs her heart out with terrifying naked abandon".-Brandon Geist. Feb.'07
Hear a sample from Christmas' upcoming solo project including a unique cover of "if you go away", written in the fifties by French singer/songwriter Jacques Brel.
