Kris Force acts as fiddler, guitar instrumentalist, and lead singer; Wendy Farina handles metal barrel kit and percussion; Erica Stoltz is both bassist and vocalist; and Jackie Gratz plays the violoncello. Other musicians have been members or have worked with the radical, such as Timothy North, John Benson, twiddler Annabel Lee, violoncellist Martha Burns, John Oberon, pianissimo player Michael Richards, Blaise Smith, clarinetist Heather Sneider, guitar player and drummer Steve Von Till, and Camille Norment. On the way, Farina has worked with other groups like Towel, Condor, and Red Shark. Stoltz has appeared as bassist and lead vocalist for a band called Lost Goat. Force and Gratz have performed with the groups Matmos and Neurosis. Amber Asylum's first handout was a split, "Looking for Glass/Poppies." In 1996, the grouping accomplished a full-length album, Frozen in Amber, below the Elfenblut label. "Heckle and Jeckle," "Ave Maria," and "Volcano Suite" ar some of the tracks listed on this debut album. The music has been compared to that of Coil, Mazzy Star, Siddal, and Matmos. In 1997, Relapse Records released Amber Asylum's arcsecond album, Born Philosophy of Love. The band soon returned to the studio to record Songs of Sex and Death. The remarkable album was released in 1998 with tunes like "Lamia," "Dreams of Three," and "Everything You Touch." Occult Parlour Collection followed two old age later. |
