Album Description
In Unwoman's first release, she breaks all the rules. This self- produced vocalist, cellist, keyboardist, and composer transitions seamlessly from dark electro with powerful vocals, to trip-hop, to powernoise with ethereal vocals, to electronic belly-dancing music with cello, to atmospheric granular synthesis projects. In addition to groundbreaking original compositions for voice, electronics, beats, and cello, in Knowledge Scars Unwoman, a.k.a. Erica Mulkey, dramatically reworks songs by Kate Bush, Crass, and The Cure -- some of her influences. Unwoman's music has also been compared to Coil, early Download, Diamanda Galas, and Tori Amos. Always unconventional yet easily appreciated, she seeks to expand electronic music genres to include more human elements, more political and personal relevance.
