BraveWords.com has received the following press release:

Lead screamer Tairrie B of the Los Angeles based hard rock band MY RUIN has launched a new website/blog and online boutique store for Blasphemous Girl Designs to celebrate her first new collection of 2009 which is an eclectic range of one of a kind, hand crafted jewelry designs and conversational pieces that she refers to as wearable art created for the individual at heart.

Tairrie, who has always been heavily inspired by religious iconography within her lyrics and art surrounding MY RUIN began BGD as a cathartic accident a few years back when she was designing merch for her band, making custom themed items for shows and tours. Soon she went from customizing rock t shirts with her subversive slogans to leaving her trademark on everything from motorcycle jackets to denim vests. This being her first collection since her car accident in 2006, Tairrie is re-introducing BGD by creating over 100 pieces of jewelry for her launch based solely on mixing vintage metal chains, antique liquor tags, keyhole plates, patron saint medals, milagros, cameos and various antique religious keepsakes into unique religiously rock & roll inspired covet worthy adornments such as pendants, oversized cocktail rings, relics, wristbands and ex-votos but it is her limited edition stained and cut stamped leather hearts which she has hand painted in honor of the original she created for the cover of My Ruin's latest album and 5th full length offering 'Throat Full of Heart' that are her true statement pieces.

Tairrie also enlisted the editing skills/voiceover talents of good friend and fellow metal vocalist Rhiis Lopez of the band ANA KEFR to help her create a short commercial for BGD after lending her voice to the cover of ‘Step Back’ by ROLLINS BAND which she recorded [along with Mick on guest solo duties] for AK’s upcoming album Volume 1.
