THE ASYLUM - Emilie Autumn's Official Forum

“It’s like when the beaten dog snaps and bites your face off or when the girls get out from behind the asylum bars to the other side. Shit’s going to go down when that happens because it’s going to be bloody. And beautiful. It’s going to be creepier, scarier, more metal, more violent, not for any reason other than that’s what happens in the story. If you read the book, that’s next chapter. The next chapter, the show, the record, all of that will be about what you do when you realize what the situation is. How are you going to get yourself out of this or how are you going to make it work for you? Or, what’s the best revenge you could possibly have, and that’s taking down the doctors that fucked you over with their own tools.”

“When the new record finally comes out, the change in that, it’s basically Chapter 2. It’s the rule: once you’re in the asylum you never really get out, so that’s not going away. There’s not going to be a departure that I can see like there was from my older music to this era. That was a huge life change, the whole asylum thing, that I don’t foresee changing my life again to the point where I’m a completely different person. The show is something where the world will transform and you may see a different facet of it, and that’s the next part of the story, but it will always take place in the asylum. That’s not something that we’re going to get out of any time soon. It’ll just be different.”
