Anderson also tries to establish lyrical links between herself and chart pop. “They use lines like “I’lldie for you’ all the time,” she says. “That’s kind of the same, isn’t it?” Not really. It’s not quite thesame as “I don’t mind dying”, or “These drugs are making me so sad/I can’t stop taking them”, or“When you showed up in that spot/I almost threw up on the spot”.

These lyrics are, surely, honest representations of some fairly miserable states of mind. She nods:they are honest, but the very act of writing the songs helps. “I write songs to access the unconsciousproblem-solving part of my brain,” she says. “And afterwards, I feel much better. Oh, I didn’t know Ifelt that way, I didn’t know that was bothering me — but it often really does go away if I write aboutit.

“Also, there is a level of self-awareness when you sing lines like that. The first time it comes stormingout of your unconscious, but, as you listen back to it in the studio, you find more of a cartoonelement in it — ‘Oh, this is extreme.’ And sometimes it feels almost like a sense of duty, to say thingsthat aren’t being said, to make things that aren’t being made.”

The other time in our conversation when Anderson refers to her sense of duty is when she recallsbeing a teenager in South Dakota, and thinking: “Isn’t any other girl going to form a punk band?Okay then, it’s up to me.”

We should all be grateful for Anderson’s sense of duty. Without it, a quite remarkable album wouldnever have been made — because nobody else was going to make it. !

So when, on California, she opens by exclaiming “F*** California, you made me boring!”, it’s notentirely convincing. There’s nothing remotely boring about Past Life Martyred Saints.

Anderson explains to me how her great-grandparents ended up in South Dakota. “They came fromScandinavia as homesteaders,” she says. “The deal was the government basically saying, ‘We’ll giveyou free land if you’ll go and live in this shitty spot.’ They lived in sod huts in the middle of extremeweather. And, gradually, they built a home and a life.”

Anderson was born in Minnesota, but the family soon returned to South Dakota. “It’s one of thoseplaces that’s a good place to raise kids... technically,” she says. “But not really.”

South Dakota is 50% bigger than England, but has a population well below 1m.

“It’s all farms, ranches, empty,” Anderson says. “I think people there are confused. You’re a speck inthe middle of nowhere — what’s going on? You don’t feel there’s any purpose. It all seems soarbitrary and a little bit futile. When I said I was going to move to LA, they’d look at me like I’d saidI was going to Mars. Mind you, if I’d said New York, then they would have known I was insane —you’re going to end up dead in a gutter. With California... well, at least there’s a beach there.”

You imagine that Anderson couldn’t wait to leave. In fact, she had conflicting emotions about hermove to Los Angeles at the age of 18. “A lot of the album explores this conflict,” she says. “Theymoved here, they built houses and homes out of nothing, and now here I am moving somewhere else.Should I do that? Is that a good thing? Am I building on their achievements, on everything they’vedone? Or am I abandoning and rejecting them? Am I betraying everything these people have workedfor through several generations to go to LA... and be an artist?”

Anderson can barely utter the words at the end of that sentence. She says the idea of someone fromSouth Dakota aspiring to be an artist is “a sin, almost”, and she was as hesitant about her artisticaims as about her move. “It took me a long time to say — even to myself, let alone out loud — that Ireally wanted to do this.”

While she worked up the courage to commit to songwriting, Anderson carried on a parallel life,earning a living as a substitute teacher. “I think that’s most people’s idea of hell,” she says. “You’reworking with an audience that’s quite likely to be openly hostile, but I really enjoyed it. You’re givenan idea of what you’re supposed to teach in each lesson — try to do this, try to cover that — but it’smostly improvised. I thought it was fun.”

It sounds not unlike her writing process, which favours stream-of-consciousness creation over abroadly brush-stroked musical backing. “I don’t know why,” she says. “I mean, I like choruses.”Anderson refers to the way she writes music down as a “hobo score” because it resembles thehieroglyphics American vagrants would carve into fenceposts to indicate whether a householderwould meet a request for food with generosity or a shotgun. “One musician looked at something I’ddrawn and said, ‘Hmm, this looks like when Charlie Brown has stink lines.’ I said, ‘Okay, then, playstink lines.’ The thing is, I see sounds as shapes, and it’s hard to describe that to other people — ‘Oh,I want a synth that sounds like one of those rocks with lots of holes in it that people use to scrubtheir feet.’ So, anyway, that’s probably why the record is mostly me.”

Anderson is obsessive over sound, an attention to detail highlighted by the moment in The Grey Shipwhen the lo-fi opening transforms into a glossy studio production. It’s been compared to the momentin The Wizard of Oz when the black-and-white film turns into colour. “I love sound,” she says, beforereaching for an unexpected comparison. “You know, I’ve been listening to the most recent BritneySpears album on headphones. I love it, because every single moment is thought out, every singlesound is very specific. I get thrilled listening to that. Friends say, ‘This is nothing at all like what youdo.’ Oh, but it is, though.”

Sounding off

Erika M Anderson is a 23-year-old South Dakotan whose songs — andespecially lyrics — demand attention

Mark Edwards Published: 13 November 2011

I magine, if you will, an alt-rock supergroup that comprises Patti Smith, Michael Stipe, Frank Blackand Lou Reed. Awesome, huh? Sadly, it’s not likely to happen (although with Stipe a free agent thesedays, and Reed wise to the benefits of unlikely collaborations, following Lulu, his team-up withMetallica, who knows?), but if that combination of styles and talents appeals, you could do worsethan explore Past Life Martyred Saints, the debut album from Erika M Anderson, who trades underher initials, EMA.

Here you will discover the intensity of Smith, the vocal dexterity of Stipe, the off-kilter riffs of Blackand Reed’s mastery of guitar tones on the edge of chaos, all combined in a 23-year-old singer whopretty much emerged from nowhere when the album was released earlier this year. (She waspreviously in a band called Gowns, but unless you’re a Los Angeles-based lover of drone-folk, youprobably never caught them.)

This is one of those rare — too rare — albums where every moment matters, every lyric fascinates,every sound thrills. Even more remarkably, this extraordinary record draws its inspiration from thelife of Anderson’s great-grandmother and from the differences between these two generations. It’snot your typical rock subject matter, but she takes this unlikely starting point and finds in ituniversal themes as she explores the conflicts we all face in making our own way in the world,separate from previous generations yet still inextricably linked to them.

Anderson encapsulates both the distance and the closeness of her life and her great-grandmother’s inthe four lines that close the album’s opening track, The Grey Ship, a seven-minute epic that hasalready referenced Anderson’s even more distant ancestors, with its mention of Viking ghost ships.

“Great-grandmother lived on the prairie/Nothing and nothing and nothing and nothing/I’ve got thesame feeling inside of me/Nothing and nothing and nothing and nothing.”

It’s hard to imagine any rock lyricist who wouldn’t be proud of that verse, and the subtlety of theconnection counterpoints the more immediately shocking lyrics that made Anderson one of the mostblogged-about artists around when the album emerged. You can hear a typically unsettling exampleon her new single, Marked (out on November 21 on Souterrain Transmissions), which contains therepeated line: “I wish that every time he touched me left a mark.” Elsewhere on the album, we hearreferences to “20 kisses with a butterfly knife” and the suggestion that “I don’t mind dying”.

Stuz, November 2011 (Germany)

www.stuz.de46 // STUZ 140

STUZ: Du bist im Alter von 18 Jahren von South Da-kota nach Los Angeles gezogen. Hattest du zu dieser Zeit bereits den Plan, Musikerin zu werden?Erika M. Anderson: Nein, ich dachte nicht, dass ich das könnte. Ich habe in der Nähe von L.A. Media Studies stu-diert und wollte damals Dokumentationen drehen oder Erziehungssendungen für Kinder produzieren.

Das klingt lustig, denn deine Musik ist nicht gerade für Kinder geeignet.Ich weiß. (lacht) Ich glaube, ich kann inzwischen wohl auch nie wieder als Lehrerin arbeiten. Keine Eltern der Welt würden mich mehr in die Nähe ihrer Kinder lassen wollen!

Die Songs auf deinem Album „Past Life Martyred Saints“ sind sehr intim und verletzlich. Hatte die Ent-stehung der Platte einen kathartischen E!ekt auf dich?Ja, auf jeden Fall. Lieder über bestimmte Erfahrungen zu schreiben, hilft einem dabei, sich besser zu fühlen und Sachen zu verstehen. Wenn man bewusst über etwas nachdenkt, ist es manchmal schwieriger zu begreifen, wie man sich wirklich fühlt, als wenn man es in Songs verarbeitet. Manche Songs sind beinahe wie Zaubersprü-che, die man aussprechen muss, um etwas freizulassen.

Aber hattest du nicht auch ein wenig Angst vor den Re-aktionen, die du auf das Album bekommen würdest?Ich hatte keine Ahnung, was ich erwarten sollte. Wenn man ein Album herausbringt, weiß man ja nicht, wie viele Leute es hören werden. Ich habe das Album vor allem für mich selbst gemacht und mir keine Gedanken darüber gemacht, was Leute dazu sagen könnten. Ich meine, ich wusste schon, dass darauf einige Dinge sind, die man als kontrovers bezeichnen könnte. Dinge, die die meisten Leute niemals laut sagen würden. Aber am meisten Angst hatte ich ehrlich gesagt davor, was meine Familie

dazu sagen würde! Doch sie meinten, dass sie das Album mögen. Über mehr haben wir nicht wirklich geredet. Ich bin nicht gerade scharf darauf, mit meinen Eltern oder Großeltern über den Inhalt der Texte zu sprechen.

Hast du schon Pläne für ein zweites Album?Ich habe ein paar Ideen, aber bisher hatte ich noch keine Zeit, mich genauer damit zu beschäftigen. Wenn ich bisher etwas gemacht habe, dann war das immer für mich und der Druck kam aus mir selbst. Ich weiß nicht, inwiefern sich das ändern wird, jetzt wo ich weiß, dass sich auch andere Leute darüber Gedanken machen, was ich als nächstes tue. Ich bin nicht gerade jemand, der einen Fün!ahresplan hat. Ich weiß noch nicht mal genau, wo es als nächstes hingeht. Ich bin nicht besonders gut im Planen (lacht).

Du bist vor Kurzem nach Portland gezogen. Glaubst du, dass der Ort, an dem man lebt, einen Ein"uss auf die Persönlichkeit hat?Ja, und besonders auch auf die Kunst, die man macht. Ich denke, dass ein Teil meiner Faszination für lauten, dröhnenden Sound daher kommt, dass ich in South Dakota aufgewachsen bin. Der Himmel dort ist riesig und das Wetter spielt häu"g verrückt. Ich wollte etwas davon in den Klang meiner Musik packen. Ich weiß allerdings nicht, ob ein Portland-Ein#uss das Richtige für meine Musik ist (lacht).

Wie hat es dir auf deiner Tour in Deutschland gefallen?Es war großartig! Die meisten Aufritte hier in Deutschland liefen ziemlich gut. Einmal wurden wir allerdings von der bayrischen Polizei angehalten. Wir hatten am Tag zuvor in Amsterdam gespielt und dann hieß es: „Oh, ihr kommt aus Amsterdam?! Ihr seid eine Rockband?! Raus aus dem Auto!“ (lacht) Aber die Polizisten waren ziemlich nett. Mir gefällt Deutschland, ich mag die Direktheit der Leute hier.

Es wäre cool, mehr Zeit in Deutschland zu verbringen. Ich glaube, es wäre gut für meine Persönlichkeit, von dieser Ehrlichkeit umgeben zu sein.

Anfang der 90er Jahre gab es diese Riot Grrrl-Szene mit vielen feministischen Bands – ich bin mir aber nicht sicher, ob das langfristig so viel in der Rockmusik verändert hat. Meinst du, es gibt heutzutage mehr Mädchen, die Gitarre in einer Band spielen, als damals?Ich denke schon, dass es heute mehr sind. Aber es wäre spannend, mal nachzuzählen, ob das wirklich so ist. Es scheint mir jedenfalls so, als gäbe es heutzutage viele Musikerinnen, die ihr Ding machen. Allein im letzten Jahr waren da so tolle Künstlerinnen wie Zola Jesus, tUnE-yArDs oder Austra. Ich denke, dass die Leute interessiert sind an einer weiblichen Perspektive und dass es mo-mentan eine gute Zeit ist, um als Frau Musik zu machen.

Erika M. Anderson alias EMA hat im Juni 2011 ihr So-lodebüt „Past Life Martyred Saints“ herausgebracht, welches aufgrund der intensiven Mischung von Noise, Folk und Pop sowie der abgründigen Texte über obsessive Beziehungen und Selbstverletzung besonders in den Musikblogs hohe Wellen geschla-gen hat. Im Interview zeigte sich die Endzwanzige-rin dagegen unglaublich o$en und freundlich – und wirkte in ihrer schlabberigen Trainingshose, der viel zu weiten Jacke und der riesigen Brille überhaupt nicht wie die düstere und verletzliche Person, die man beim Hören des Albums vor Augen hat.

„Manche Songs sind wie Zaubersprüche“Eine zerbrechliche Stimme, dröhnende Gitarren und jede Menge Ehrlichkeit: Erika M. Anderson macht un-ter dem Namen EMA Musik, die unter die Haut geht. Vor ihrem Auftritt im Hafen 2 in O!enbach sprach die STUZ mit der blonden Hünin über musikhörende El-tern, ehrliche Deutsche und Frauen, die Gitarre spielen.

Quotes

96

“Quite simply the most exciting thing Iʼve heard in a very, very long time.” – Glasswerk

“An enchanting listen… EMA could well become a new icon for lo-fi electronic music.” – Qthemusic

“A truly splendid debut album. 8/10” – Gaydar Nation via The Press Association“Apologies for the swearing so early on, normally we wait till paragraph two to get worked up. But then, Anderson, who now goes by the name EMA, will do that to you. (Note to her record company: you can use that – "EMA: she's curse-inducingly good." Guardian New Band of the Day“Phenomenal debut album” 5/5 Sunday Times ʻCD of the Weekʼ“Blending roughness with beauty could be said to be EMAʼs thing” ʻDebut Album of the Monthʼ 4/5 Uncut“Deliriously woozy thrill-ride” 4/5 Mojo“Sheʼs already sailed miles past the ʻbright hopeʼ stage and is well on her way to lo-fi legend” Time Out“Dark, devilish and utterly intriguing, this is an album to lose yourself in” 4/5 The Fly“Masterful handling of each of the nine tracks makes this a truly one-off debut” 4/5 The Sun“EMAʼs raw power serves heartening evidence of a tough, fearless talent” The Independent  “9/10” Loud & Quiet“4/5” Stool Pigeon“4/5” Financial Times “Sheʼs a wonder to behold” Pitchfork SXSW 2011“Most exciting of all [new artists] has been the arrival of new single 'Grey Ship' b/w 'Kind Heart' by solo artist Erika M. Anderson aka EMA… Slay it does” The Quietus“A whole heap of Americana awesome” NME “Youʼll have no idea where you are when the ʻGrey Shipʼ halts but youʼll know it has been wonderful” Metro“Past Life Martyred Saints is a remarkably accomplished record” 4/5 The Skinny“Utterly compelling” ʻSingle of the Monthʼ 5/5 Artrocker“A wistful layered female vocal juxtaposed with guitars that manage to alternate tonally” FredPerry.com/Fred Perry Subculture“The best new guitar slinger in town” Hecklerspray“A rare 'DiScover' recommendation...You're sucked into an ornate vortex of a true artist, who is not just making songs but building a planet for us to inhabit.”  Drowned in Sound“Irresistible and constant… It is brilliant and EMA deserves to be heard. 4/5” Music News“This would already be sitting on top of the tottering pile of data that is our albums of the year long list…if we made such things.” 20jazzfunkgreats“Some intelligent confessional songwriting, some sublime sky-sawing guitars at around 3:30, and that voice, warm and longing, with just the right amount of attitude.” Fred Perry Subculture“Deliriously woozy thrill-ride” 4/5 Mojo“Although it was actually released last week, itʼs taken us this long to get all the way through this slow burning psychedelic alt.blues masterpiece [Kind Heart] – one of the stars of this yearʼs SXSW” Time Out
