The Darker side
In
a career spanning almost 25 years, Lizzy Borden
was created in 1983 in Hollywood California. Spitting
venom, stage blood and dripping grease paint while
breathing life into bizarre characters bred precisely
for the stage. Theme oriented creations such as, Love
you to pieces (1985)
Menace to society (1986)
Visual Lies (1987)
Master of Disguise (1989)
Best Of (1994)
and Deal with the Devil (2000)
forever cemented icon status to the master showman from
the dawn of heavy metal.
Now, Years in the making,
Lizzy Borden pulls back the cloak to unveil his latest
and most frightening creation, Appointment with Death
(2007)
a fatalistic
journey to the final destination
damned by the wings of death.
This is Lizzy Borden’s
First new studio recording since Deal with the Devil
(2000)
Appointment with Death
was produced by L. Borden and J. Scott It was
recorded at the
Zanzibar
studios in N. Hollywood CA.
And was mixed by Erik Rutan
(Hate Eternal/ex-Morbid Angel)
at Mana sound in
Florida
(….. about the concept and the characters on AWD)
Like all past Lizzy
Borden recordings, Appointment with Death is
a conceptual piece; this concept is centered around the
theme of, as the title implies, Death.
“Oddly enough, writing eleven songs about death was no
easy task for me; lyrically being graphic or grotesque
would have been too easy, and being overly morbid would
bring nothing new to the concept. I wrote this just like
I have all of the other LB recordings, as a play or a
movie. There is a beginning, middle and an end with the
lead character taking us on a journey. Death is all
around us, lurking, waiting to pounce, striking fear and
antagonizing the living in many different ways, I tried
to explore some of those ways in the most poetic way
that I know how”
commented Lizzy.
The music on AWD
was composed by Lizzy, Ira Black, Marten Andersson
and Joey Scott
AWD
is epic, Heavy, dark and melodic, everything a
traditional Lizzy Borden recording should be and more.
With new guitarist Ira Black along with Marten
Andersson on Bass and co/founder Joey Scott
on the drums, the Lizzy Borden sound has evolved
into a multi-dimensional ever-lasting-gobstopper
working just as well in an ipod as it has always
done on stage.
(The Star studded cast of characters that performed on
AWD)
“These musicians are more
then just special guests, they all, each in their own
original way helped to create this work of fiction and
bring Appointment with Death to life.” Lizzy

(….About the cover)
For the Cover, Lizzy
Borden worked with special effects wizard and
make-up artist Ralis Kahn.
Ralis
designed the set and the look of the band based on the
theme for Appointment with Death. The cover
depicts Lizzy as the angel of Death in the
action of collecting 3 souls who have ended their lives
in 3 very different ways by their own hands. Famed
‘Metal’ photographer Alex Solca took well over a
1,000 shots in a two-day marathon, involving extras as
well as the band (Lizzy, Joey Scott, Marten Andersson
and Ira Black). At the end of the two-day shoot the
set was literally set a blaze! With flames shooting 30
feet into the air!

Lizzy explains
“Because a lot of music is going straight to itunes, we
thought we would pay special attention to both the cover
and the back cover and fill the inside of the CD booklet
with tons of fun shots from this specialized photo
shoot. As we all know, very soon there will no longer be
an actual CD to have a cool booklet for. Everything will
go straight from the studio to your ipod, so we thought
we would really go all out on this one”
(….About the tour and the new show)
The new show for the
Appointment with Death Tour is based around
the theme of the new release; with Lizzy playing
the lead character (Death). Lizzy and Co. will bring to
life the characters and imagery from the album to the
stage with special effects master Ralis Kahn at
the helm. Ralis is working with the band
designing an extraordinary over the top stage show
created especially for the AWD tour.
Showcasing songs from the
new release as well as all the Borden fan
favorites, the upcoming tour promises to be the show you
don’t want to miss.
