" Emaciation Revealed " Documentary 2007 Pt. 1 - by Brandon Elfrink
STORY OF EMACIATION
The concept of Emaciation was spawned in early 1996 . Missouri based avant garde rock/metal group Gikk , had started in the early 90's wanted to expand to music of a more extreme nature . Gikk members Kirby Ray, Stu The Immortal Faris, focused on more brutal back to basics songs mixed with modern forms of metal , to regain the magic power . Having grown up on every style of 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's metal hard rock, being a founding member of the band Sinister(US) as guitarist in 1985, Kirby Ray had realized this was his lifelong goal . Also to work on several concepts on aspects of the band from the lyrics to the live show . The songs deal with topics such as the paranormal, historical, & things we deal with a daily life . Starting with very few shows a year going through over 20 member changes, Emaciation has been fortunate to have made many friends in all styles of music .
Live, you'll see the theatrical experience of the show, menacing stage presence, corpse paint, spikes, leather, & swords ! Power, Classical, Old School Metal, Death, Thrash, Black, Glam Rock, Ambient, Gothic, Rock are all influences of the band . Emac prefers to be classified as Thrash Glam Metal .
Emaciation has been invited to play at many of the world's best metalfests such as Dynamo festival, Wacken , Black Winter Day, Milwaukee Metalfest . Emac was voted one of the top six bands of the annual City Of Roses Music Fest in Cape Girardeau, MO by the ticket holders to the yearly outdoor event .

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked the stock boy, 'Do these turkeys get any bigger?'
£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David

Hey Kirby, guys. I just wanted to stop in to publicly THANK YOU for your kindness and generosity on Halloween night. Your encouragement and supportiveness really made my night go smoothly. I was nervous as could be on account of doing sound at the last minute, and wasn't certain if anyone would actually notice that I was performing some live electronics programming at times. Thank you for providing such a positive atmosphere, which in turn calmed my nerves, ha! I enjoyed your set as well, albeit far too short! I'm certain to catch another live Emaciation show in the future. Gotta run, just wanted to stop in to let you know how much you are appreciated! Take care. Thanks again! -Leon
Thanks so much for a wonderful Halloween night! I sincerely appreciate the positive and supportive atmosphere. I felt nervous, and EVERYONE was so kind and caring. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! You have no idea how profoundly beautiful the night was in those terms! I still feel euphoric and I was sober the whole night!
