Sounds Like
a monolithic vocal performance
love, hate, death, violence
dominance and insanity
"pieces of insidious beauty
and relentless brutality"
MONA MUR, extravagant vocalist and composer, has gained her reputation in the international music scene collaborating with artists such as "Einstürzende Neubauten", "The Stranglers", "Yello" and and the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra. Featuring a violently orchestral sound of darkest shades, her concerts in manic intensity and morbid slowbeat-chic were foundation stones for her cult image until today.

Mur, also a successful martial artist (3rd DAN Taekwondo) and composer for video games, (BALLANCE, VELVET ASSASSIN, CULPA INNATA 2) is one of the few german singers creating her own dark, mysterious, aggressive but beautiful musical world exploring the fields of electronic industrial, wave, postpunk and a hefty german chanson "cabaret" tradition à la Brecht/Weill. Director Fatih Akin chose three of her tracks for his worldwide awarded movie "Head On/Gegen die Wand"
(Berlin Golden Bear 2004)
On the actual CD Release “120 Days – The Fine Art of Beauty and Violence” (PALE MUSIC Int. 2/2009) Mona Mur is collaborating with EN ESCH, known as charismatic frontman and co-founder of the successful german/US electro-industrial outfit KMFDM. The accomplished drummer, guitarist and producer has drastically transformed Mur's most intense 80s Songs into a unique blend of electronic drum loops, bass, dirty organ and wreckless feedback guitars.

“While the performance has an air of cool restraint throughout, there's also a distinct feeling of seething passions just under the surface.
The amiable tension between the two performers - the supercool vocalist and her rock guitarist, straining at the leash to amp it all up - adds another neat bit of tension to the proceedings. The audience is held, rapt and attentive, from first song to last. “ Uncle NEMESIS UK 2008

Greetings Mistress- I was curious what ever happened to the tracks "Crossing the Line" and "Luzifer", which I liked but were not released? Perhaps they fell victim to politics of some kind.
I await your voice with your spooky electronic ambiance, and effects on live instruments. Enough rock!
Möchte mich fast entschuldigen all die Jahre an Deinen Liedern so konsequent vorbei gehört zu haben - kaufe jetzt alles was ich noch kriegen kann...;-)
