   About The LVRS
~WHO SAYS MURDER'S NOT AN ART?~

Tairrie B and Mick Murphy are "The LVRS". Lovers in real life and the throat and guitar behind the rock & roll metal band MY RUIN. Established in Silverlake Circa 6571 and born out of a mutual passion for each other and a pre-occupation with Love, Violence, Religion and Sex...."The MURDER of MISS HOLLYWOOD" which had a Black Dahlia theme was recorded in the winter of 2003 at the Hepburn Manor and was the first chapter in a series of spoken word stories inspired by life and a romantic fascination with DEATH.

Drenched in the ambiance of an apartment, together they have created vintage quality recordings that are both honest as they are organic in content. Influenced by the suicide of the writer/poet Virgina Woolf..."The SECRET LIFE of LOLA BURNS" which was recorded in the Commonwealth Castle was brought to life in the heat of the summer of 2004. This recording, like it's predecessor is not for the faint of heart. There is no hiding. Only soothing healing, heavy breathing and a view to a city which they call home sweet home.

Tairrie B is the voice and the words of The LVRS. Better known for her full blown screams, its her ability to bravely go where many fear to tread lyrically that allows her to be so naked on these recordings while showing a side of her that has rarely been seen until now. Death becomes her as she strips down to the bare essentials vocally and assumes the identities of the women she has used as her inspiration by becoming them within her words.

Never letting the listener forget she is still who she is. A narrator, a fighter, a victim, a killer, a survivor , a hater and a LOVER.There is nothing left to the imagination. You are there with her and what you hear is what happened. Dripping with dramatic intent and passion fueled contempt, she uses her words to cultivate her own wicked garden of earthly nightmares intoxicating the ears with stories of adult fantasies and childhood memories brought back to life by way of poetry.

Mick Murphy is the man behind the woman. Resurrecting her voice by creating an atmosphere that is both BEAUTIFUL and BRUTAL he surrounds her in soundscapes that you can feel under selected spoken pieces while leaving only the harsh reality of her voice in others.

The LVRS recordings are pleasantly uncomfortable and deliciously macabre. UNEASY LISTENING. Imagine if you will, getting a letter filled with someones most inner secrets, exposing themselves to you and only you. This is the feeling that these records convey. Find your safe place. The place where YOU feel the most SAFE and put on your HEADPHONES, turn down the lights and just listen.

ALONE, with a FRIEND or with your LOVER.

This may be a random piece of shit comment to you on a Myspace that has nothing to do with *Yourspace* but I had to say or share rather, that after a frightening and drunken fight with a lover I, not only did listen to The Lovers, but let it dissolve into my stupid skin and poison my aching blood. I am not a *Fangirl* and I only have high respect for the true sensitive and obsessive complusive fellow writers that share this intense and ravenous disease. May Love Be with You.

Not only is today Ash Wednesday but today also marks the 4th anniversary (sure, we’ll call it an anniversary) since I saw you guys live for the first time. I’m putting this comment up here because so much has changed in the past 4 years but you 2 have remained. 2/21/03 was a night to remember. I had waited over 2 years to see you guys and then it hit me, “if they aren’t coming to Seattle why not just go to LA?” I still remember how nervous I was before the show. I got in line at 4pm and it seemed like it was forever before they opened the doors. I kept walking past the front door in hopes of saying hi to either of you. It was close to 7pm but I managed to speak to both of you.

It was my first concert in CA. and it was so rad! The HOB hadn’t come out yet so the only lyrics I knew were ones I picked up from your home videos plus the songs I knew from S&D and APUPOVA. You guys blew me away. The stage presence and energy everyone had, plus I hadn’t been to a show before where the singer got right in everyone’s face, let alone shared the mic with them. I was in awe your whole set. So in awe that I didn’t realize Tairrie was talking to me until a friend at the time elbowed me and brought me back to reality. I still remember how I felt watching you guys for the first time.

To this day you guys still blow me away and I still get chills watching you. After that show I knew I had to get back to LA to see you guys because I couldn’t wait until I moved here. Even though some might see it as a little thing, doing merch for you guys is a little bit surreal because if you would have asked me 4 years ago if I’d be in this position I would have laughed and said “yeah right.” I love you both and I love that i’ve been able to be a part of this.

although i don't celebrate this "holiday" i thought it would be an appropriate time to say a little thank you to my 2 friends who make up my favourite lovers. without you i wouldn't have met lysa and found the happyness i've been waiting so many years for and thought i'd never find. thank you for completely changing my life!

so happy valentines day, from one set of lovers to THE LVRS:
