Alissa White-Gluz, frontwoman for the Swedish death metal act Arch Enemy, has teamed up with American Murder Song for a new, bloody music-film hybrid project.
As the one of the most recognizable female faces in metal, Alissa smolders in this first glimpse of her as Pretty Lavinia Fisher, America’s first female serial killer. Fans can check out this animated daguerreotype portrait of her character at https://youtu.be/KCti03VpmuU.
As Pretty Lavinia, Alissa steps into the shoes of the historical outlaw who ran an infamous inn outside of Charleston. There, she purportedly lured, poisoned and robbed wealthy patrons. White-Gluz joins previously announced AMS collaborators Sara “Chibi” Taylor of The Birthday Massacre and Goth personality Aurelio Voltaire.
American Murder Song comes from the minds of Terrance Zdunich (Repo! The Genetic Opera) and Saar Hendelman (The Devil’s Carnivalfranchise) and features a rogues gallery of original murder ballads set in early nineteenth century America. The video was directed by Jake Akuna.
American Murder Song‘s first EP of music, I. DAWN, is currently available for purchase at https://americanmurdersong.com/product/dawn/and was produced by Scotty Morris of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.
