L’Impératrice | April Featured Artist and Giveaway
Tako Tsubo (or “octopus trap” in Japanese) is the new album title of the always-creative band L’Imperatrice (The Empress).
Since the release of Matahari three years ago, L’Impératrice’s feet have barely touched the ground. That debut album was followed by a whirlwind tour through the band’s native France, and then onto Italy, Mexico, California… but not before two sold-out nights at the legendary Olympia in Paris. It’s a journey that has broadened the horizons of all of those who sail in ‘The Empress’.
TAKO TSUBO
Broken heart syndrome is no fictional disorder. The phenomenon has a name: Tako Tsubo (or “octopus trap” in Japanese). It’s an upheaval of the senses, an emotional burnout… It weakens the heart’s main chamber and is brought on by intense emotional distress: an earthquake or a natural disaster, or something less (literally) earth-shattering like the loss of a loved one or the angst felt when one is spurned by a lover. Modern science is yet to find a cure.
‘Voodoo?’
The intrepid, funky ‘Voodoo?’ chooses to leave the party early in favour of reading Torture Magazine.
