Borg Queen, an electro/goth project from Vancouver (Canada) will release the debut album entitled Sex, Drugs & Shiny Brass Poles on 29th January. Sex, Drugs & Shiny Brass Poles is a concept album about exposing real life of exotic dancers.
Jenny Kirby the multi-disciplinary artist behind Borg Queen, started dancing when she was 19 to help pay for art school. Although she successfully completed her education, she fell into addiction along the way. Sex, Drugs & Shiny Brass Poles is the story of her downward spiral into a world of addiction, depression and sexual abuse, but the tale doesn't end on a dark note. A surprising twist in the story is that Jenny continues working as a stripper as part of her recovery and healing process. As a sober stripper, she gains valuable insight into the human condition, by observing human behavior at its most primal core.
What's particularly unique about the project is that for each song Jenny has also done a painting relating the concept of the song visually. Originally, the project began as a series of surrealistic paintings that were a form of art therapy in Jenny's recovery process. As the paint spread across the canvas, lyrics and melodies began to intertwine with imagery eventually evolving into the multidisciplinary art project that is Borg Queen. The paintings can be viewed and purchased as fine art prints on the official website. Sex, Drugs & Shiny Brass Poles is available for pre-orders at this location. Expect an exclusive premiere of the track "We're All Whores" soon right here on Terra Relicta webmagazine! Link
