Marion Raven 'Heads Will Roll EP' album

With the success of a top 10 album and #1 single in Japan, Marion Raven is primed to make waves in the U.S. Eleven Seven Music will release Marion’s 6-song ep titled Heads Will Roll exclusively through iTunes on October 24th with her full-length U.S. debut coming out first quarter 2007.

The songs on Marion’s EP reflect a broken relationship and the feelings that follow. At times the music is dark, vengeful and powerful, but ultimately uplifting and cathartic. Marion collaborated with some of rock’s biggest names including Nikki Sixx (Mötley Crüe), Keith Nelson (Buckcherry), Raine Maida (Our Lady Peace) and Scott Stevens (The Exies). In addition to writing and singing, Marion also plays the piano, electric and acoustic guitar on many of her songs.

“I’ve written with artists as diverse as Joey from Saliva to Meat Loaf and Vince Neil, but Marion is the f***ing most talented new artist I’ve worked with since I’ve been making music,” said Nikki Sixx. Scott Stevens added, “Marion Raven has the dark edge that Avril Lavigne and Kelly Clarkson wish they had. I declare her the new Joan Jett of Rock and Roll!”

U.S. audiences can also get a taste of Marion on the original motion picture soundtrack for National Lampoon’s Van Wilder: The Rise Of Taj, which features the explosive single “Heads Will Roll,” being released November 21st. Additionally, Marion sings a duet with Meat Loaf on his new album, Bat Out of Hell III, in stores October 31st.
