ELIZABETH (DA003)

Recorded: 1999 - 2002 Hobart and Melbourne. Released: 2002.

Elizabeth is the story of a vampire in six chapters. The story is told in spoken word form with musical backing. It is also a departure from the 'normal' DIABLE AMOREUX material in that it makes use of the talents of musicians other than 7; in fact other than the sixth track, the music is entirely composed by these people.

 


LOVE SONGS FOR THE DEVIL (DA002)

Recorded: 2000 - Melbourne and Hobart. Released: 2001.

Love Songs for the Devil is the medieval story of a girl falling in love with the Devil. Her forbidden sympathy grows into an act of mud and grave hands. But unfortunately she is forced to live in a time where her wish can not be fulfilled.

Track Listing:
One- A Fragment of What is and What Must be (Once were a fall)
Lucifer king of Heaven.

Two- Symptoms of Sympathy (Mine sleep of freeity)
She dreams that the Devil is not evil, and deserves sympathy. For he is the true creature that bares mans failures and sins - their scapegoat.
She dreams of Lucifer's past loves, those that dared to go to him - and how they died because of it, but not by his hand.
Over many nights she dreams.

Three- The Necromance of Romance (Ten loves, a thousand loves?)
She begins to study Lucifer. Amongst the high rocks and cliffs of her sea side village where no one will find her. The idea begins to form in her mind - to raise the Devil. And her love begins to blossom, from the over whelming sadness she feels for him.

Four- The Woman of the Salt (A raise of pepper tears)
She takes her newfound skills and attempts to raise him in a graveyard. She succeeds and he speaks to her, but she can not hear him.
The fact that she still uses a salt circle for protection is lamentable, as it indicates that she is still not sure of his malevolence. But it is all pointless, because he will not endanger her life from those around her, no matter how much he may desire her - he can not show himself to her.

Five- Nar-Nar (Half a loaf with his wine)
So he takes his leave. As if it were her own child saying goodbye, he must leave her. She has never known him, yet in the hearts of all women and men of substance, of the lonely and the outrages, they are lovers indeed.

Six- Epilogue (A broken heart for the heartless)
In her post-ritual state, she experiences both the dreamy and the tense. She has a vision of the true nature of Lucifer's existence. What he must do, with never a word of complaint.


FOR HER REQUIEM (DA001)

Recorded: 1998 - Professional sound works, Hobart

For her Requiem is a journey into the world of lost love and the eternal search for a girl's lost half using music and sounds to tell the tale. It follows her life until she reaches the conclusion she has so long sort for.

Track Listing:
One- For Her Requiem (Lyrics)
We start off in the womb and her birth and traumatic early childhood.
Then follows her life and the realization that there is someone else, the idea of her missing half dawns on her. She dreams of her 'other half' and what he is feeling.
She also dreams of her own passed death from 'his' point of view, when he lost her, which is told in actual words.
Then comes her old age, her body is returning to the soil. She feels that it is taking too long to die from old age.
And to end we hear an element of that which once was, signifying the fact that life has come full circle, to be born is really to die.

Two- Journeying to the Neither World
She is descending into the realm of the dead, where all must go before passing on to the next plain of existence.

Three- Distance Through Mortal Time to Reach Her
She emerges on the other side, where she waits at the gaits.
He comes to meet her, walking through the mortal world, along a river and where otherworldly noises can still be heard, but she is also on a different plain to mortal women and men. She calls for him to follow her, and he does.
Finally they are united in the time and place where nothing lives and nothing dies.
And here the story ends.
