Emptyself is hauntingly beautiful music from New Orleans-based artist/producer Eric Johanson (see Cire), featuring lush acoustic guitars, trip-hop and industrial beats, and emotionally revealing lyrics. Fans of Portishead, A Perfect Circle, Massive Attack, Zero 7, and Nine Inch Nails should give Emptyself a listen. Emptyself's self-titled debut CD was released 5/27/05, and is now available from GenomeRecords.com. Eric began playing guitar at age 5, and was recording his own original rock projects by the ripe old age of 12.
