Hey there everyone!  Well it seems the Wraith has lost her writing virginity and posting her first review.  Now I know you expect lights and whistles but , sadly, that was never my style so ease back and let me do my thing. Not too long ago, I finally got a listen to a wonderful artist named Jennifer Parkin or as you all may know her as --AYRIA.  Well she took her goth glam meets electroclash vision and put it down so that we may anticipate and prepare for the September 12 release of her 3rd CD, Hearts for Bullets.  Hmm...September 12th release, 12  hot new songs?  Is there a connection or am I just being terribly random?  Now I know what youre asking, I can hear it form here, will this be as good as her previous release of the "ORDER THE GUN SONG EP"?  The answer is  a simple "I don't know but i am sure it is worth a listen"..Remember this is the EP that has been remixed by the talents of Daniel B. of FRONT 242, Claus Larsen of LEAETHER STRIP, DAVID CARRETTA and STANDEG (ex-HAUJOBB) so with Sebastian R. Komor behind it, "Hearts for Bullets" surely wont disappoint.

Truth be told, I have been dancing to a few of the tunes of the new CD and for those of you that remember her from Epsilon Minus will recognize the edgy passion and depth in her voice as if her soul has been given a way to express itself after years of bottled up, pent up angst and anger and frustration.  Also, the nifty 2cd boxset has a bunch of goodies tucked away in its cardboard folds-2 exclusive songs/mixes, 2 cover versions of DEFTONES and PAT BENATAR, the exclusive video of "My Device" and a collection of collaborations of Jennifer Parkin with bands like ECHORAUSCH, EPSILON MINUS, GLIS, ISIS SIGNUM, AIBOFORCEN and IMPLANT as well as the usual fan far (bracelets and stickers, etc) So with all that juicy talent locked into a badass boxset, it looks like Alfa-Matrix has another star to add to its already blinding bright horizons!

Now, my darklings, it is time for me to slink back to my velvety nook but thank you for reading and until next time, you can do what you want but don't name it after me!
