DIAMANDA GALAS


SINCE THE EARLY 90S I HAVE FOLLOWED DIAMANDA GALAS.
FROM HER PLAGUE MASS
DEDICATED TO HER BROTHER~PHILIP~DIMITRI GALAS~ WHO DIED OF AIDS IN 1986~
TO HER "DEATH JAZZ" PERFORMANCES WITH JOHN PAUL JONES,  TO HER MORE RECENT~ O DEATH, AND HER INTENSE REINTERPRETATIONS OF 
THE SUPREMES CLASSIC~MY WORLD IS EMPTY WITHOUT YOU.
DIAMANDA IS AN ORIGINAL VOICE IN A WORLD OF BANAL "BRANDING".
 SHE IS HER OWN WOMEN; AN ARTIST OF DEPTH AND CLARITY. 
DIAMANDA IS A GOTH IN THE TRUE SENSE OF THE WORD- GOTHIC.
