This is the official Ourstage site for female fronted and produced industrial/ethereal music project Chamber of Echoes, conceived by Klaryssa Korol Chamber Of Echoes is described as "A female version of NIN mixed with Depeche Mode, Garbage, Evanescence, and the Kidney Thieves." To call Chamber Of Echoes a band would be a misinterpretation; the only official member is vocalist/keyboardist/songwrite r/producer Klaryssa Nicole Korol. She is responsible for the sole vision, concept and sound of Chamber of Echoes. Currently Klaryssa is an independent musician based in Fullerton, CA. Influenced by early 80's industrial/electronic artists such as Nine Inch Nails and Depeche Mode, and fusing modern day industrial-based rock bands such as Celldweller, Massivivid, and Kidney Thieves, Klaryssa has intense and profound production and composition abilities in her chosen genre. Unlike most industrial artists of today, Korol uses her classically-trained background to her advantage to write conventionally structured songs, infused with harmony, melody and instrumental experimentation. Klaryssa began singing at the age of three, and soon after classical piano training began at the age of eight. It all started when she found a dusty old casio keyboard in her grandparents closet.The transition over from acoustic to industrial began at the age of 16 when she first starting combining electronic rhythms with her classical pieces after studying and researching the production and structure of music from the electronic bands she idolized. She performed in theatre through much of her elementary and high school education, and had gone on to California State University Fullerton where she had studied Audio Design for Theatre and Illustration in Art. At 19, she joined the local Orange County band, The Spank, but quickly departed after she realized the musical direction was too varied from her own concept. She is very passionate about her non-music interests as well, such as drawing, painting, graphic design, photography, clothing design and sewing. Her current EP in production, combines rigid, jarring electronic beats and effects mixed with intoxicating atmospherics, warped classical piano and guitar. The lyrics are based around her human experience of relationships gone awry, haunting fantasies of idolization,tragic loss, and esoteric obsessions. In 2008, Klaryssa collaborated with I Am Ghost (Epitaph Records) for synth/programming on their demos for their second album release and also has performed with them live as a guest. As Chamber Of Echoes, Klaryssa states:"I create music for the sake of creating music, not for fame or status; it gives me the ability and opportunity to communicate with people all over the world in the most emotional and moving way I know how. I want to be the girl that opens up the doors to all other females in this technically-inclined and mathematically male-dominated genre. I have many passions in life, but none compare to that of music. I have proven not only to myself, but to others as well, that I have a strong and definitive vision, and that while my career is just getting started, I will not be a one-hit wonder, but will be someone of musical integrity. Music is and always will be the love of my life and my all-consuming obsession, in which I give everything."
