As previously reported, My Ruin vocalist Tairrie B. Murphy is featured in a new interview discussing the band's new album. Ghosts And Good Stories. In the excerpt below she discusses women in the metal business:
“Most of these girls are more interested in posing half naked and becoming the next ‘Hottest Chick In Metal’ than having any sort of musical integrity as an artist," says Tairrie. "There are too many catsuits, costumes and egos for my taste. I don’t bitch about things because it is what it is. I simply state the facts and the fact is My Ruin is not a part of the mainstream metal world on certain levels because we have refused to play the game or kiss the right rock ass. It would be great if more people knew of our band but on that same note, in order to get commercial success and acceptance you sometimes have to sell yourself out and become something you’re not and we’re just not willing to do that, so I guess it’s the cross we have to bear.”Speaking of image, it’s interest to note that Tairrie and guitarist / husband Mick Murphy have never downplayed their status a couple. In fact, they’ve gone so far as to launch a spoken word project under THE LVRS, which says it all.
“There’s one thing I can’t stand in rock and that’s when someone is phony about who they are or the image is they portray in their band to their fans. It’s pretty pathetic when couple in a band lie about their relationship simply because they want their fans to think they’re available. I think it’s important to be honest with your audience and most importantly yourselves. They respect you for it and you don’t come off like a couple of Hollywood douchebags.”Click here for more.
