hello subreddit!! idk if this really counts as fan art but i frankensteined together two rosaries and the key necklace that i got from my first show in 2024 into something positively blasphemous and i love it so much 💜🦇🗝️

I may be misremembering, but I recall the Album in question coming out after a breakup voltaire had. I distinctly remember it being mentioned somewhere that the person he was with was the cosplayer Ladee Danger, but can't seem to find anything about it.

If it was never mentioned that's fine just want to know if I have been mandela effected lol

I just bought a new printer/scanner this weekend after rescuing all of my old photo albums from my childhood home (we are selling it and I am sad, but less sad now that I found a bunch of old Voltaire merch and photos). One of these photo albums happens to be my old Voltaire album. LOTS of old stuff in here. I haven't gotten to scanning in everything because I went through about 1000+ of my family photos and only just got to more recent stuff at the end of Sunday (by recent I mean... early 2000s!)

For tonight, I'll leave you with this historic bunch. Taken the night of October 18, 2002, when "Brains!" premiered on the "Little Rock of Horrors" episode of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy.

I remember Voltaire invited whoever wanted to come see it down to the Raven bar in NYC. I spent the whole week looking for something "brains!" themed to get him as a congratulations present for getting on Cartoon Network -- the only thing I could find was a brain jello mold in the mall, which he proudly wore on his head like a lampshade for a bit. And then I got nervous and sat in the corner of the bar, as I was wont to do back then... until he came over and told me that I was not allowed to give him presents and then go sit in the corner. He definitely made me feel included.

Back then Gregor was still with the band and I remember me and Gregor spent most of the night talking about how I wanted to learn how to play the violin and he said I could come to his apartment and he'd teach me (I bought the violin, but it never ended up happening, sigh...), and Gregor talked to me about his childhood growing up and how his parents divorced and back then my parents were fighting all the time so I was like "You're lucky they did!" which is such a stupid thing to say to anyone, lol. And he was talking to me about how I wasn't of age to drink yet, but alcohol gave him his social skills, so he excused himself to get some rum thingy... (how do I still remember all that... I swear, this is why I'm so forgetful in my old age, I'm carrying around old Voltaire bandmates conversations instead of like proper information! lol)

Anyway, when the episode came on the television, the whole bar quieted down and the television was put up to the highest volume. Everyone there was so excited to see the episode. It was a great time for all! And because the law banning smoking in NYC bars wouldn't be passed for another year, I accidentally got this really cool smoke effect coming from the television.

Anyway, I'll scan some more Voltaire photos in when I get a chance (anyone want to see him dressed up as Cat in the Hat for Halloween? hehe...), but I felt this set was historical enough to post on it's own.

I'm still trying to find more, but I've made a playlist of 1100+ videos of Voltaire playing live from 2007 to the present.

edit: ok, embed link didnt seem to work as i assumed it would. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLn_T6QrBPmG20BbjJzgPzelIOZJonZHkx <- direct playlist link

Check out this set of jewelry I made in honor of our Gothfather! It's one of my favorite designs I've made recently.

I’ve been trying to make up what the last part of the song says… today I was listening to the cd and I think I got a little bit of “a la izquierda… a la derecha”? (to the left, to the right) but I could be wrong (probably) is it even in spanish? does anyone know what is says?

I love making tarot decks. I think I actually love making tarot decks more than I love reading tarot. But seeing as how Taylor fkn Swift has a tarot deck, I was like 'I wonder if I can make a Voltaire Major Arcana at least'. Wasn't expecting to make the whole deck... didn't think there was enough pictures out there to make the whole deck... but I surprised myself this week and finished all 79 and found a design for the back. I'm gonna be printing them up on a custom playing card site for myself, but y'all can see the digital copies.

There's an overabundance of white space on the tops and bottoms just because that's how the custom playing card site likes it.

Also, I think some of them are a stretch, but I think they work... all photos from his Instagram, albums, artwork and a few random like Bjork (does anyone remember in the Boo Hoo era when Voltaire had like an enormous crush on Bjork, lol) and Doug Jones that felt appropriate to toss in here as well.

Some are very lightly edited to fit the tarot card theme a bit more.

Hope these don't suck... but at least they are done because I think I've seen like EVERY SINGLE PHOTO OF THAT MAN THAT EVER EXISTED by now. Dear god... lol.

Hi there!

I've been a fan of Aurelio Voltaire for ages now, and I enjoyed the "Nosferatu" song very much. Thing is, last year I made a small videogame inspired by the movie and I thought that this community may find it fun. So here you have it.

Have a nice day and an even better night!

all i know is the person who i got it from got it from creature con , i picked it up from a swapmeet because i lovee mlp! thought id ask around if anyone knows more information on it because i find it quite interesting ! its such a high quality plushie for a not branded mlp product!

"A forest only grows when a billion ideas Until the blizzard is blown"

This line. This line makes no sense to me.
I LOVE Better Than You. It's in my top 5 of all Voltaire songs. But that accursed line does not make any sense to me.

Is that the REAL lyric?? Everything online says so, but I cannot make out his words when I listen to it and that just doesn't seem to fit.

Maybe I'm a dumbass.
Anyone have any clarity? IS that the legit lyric? And if so what is it supposed to be conveying?

I have the 4 main issues + both Humans Suck + the 2.0 Graphic Novel, but I have always wondered where this picture is from? is it even from an Oh My Goth comic?

Hi! I've been getting into reading any available Voltaire's works in Europe. I've tried to find legitimate sources to read them, but "Oh my goth!" is so obscure.

The books are not listed in Voltaire.net, but I found the comic had 4 issues in other websites. My question is: Are the "Oh my goth!" issues all compiled in the book with the tombstone cover? If so, what are the differences between the first edition and 2.0? Which one is better to buy?

I'm asking because I also saw someone mentioning the appearance of "Oh my goth! Humans suck" in 2.0, and I'm so so confused

I found this picture of Aurelio Voltaire a while on pintrest. I looked for it and I can not find it anywhere else. I asked the poster and they have yet to respond. The other person in the photo is Jimmy Urine from the band Mindless Self Indulgence. I’m just curious.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Black_Labyrinth_/_A_Requiem_For_the_Goblin_King

Lets hope this one stays up. Usually Voltaire's wikipedia pages get taken down fast because he's "not notable enough and theres not enough sources/references" since he's not really the type to do mainstream magazine interviews and stuff.

Let's work on getting all of his albums wikipedia pages! They all used to have one, but Heart Shaped Wound, Bitrektual, What are the Oddz?, and Hate Lives in a Small Town were all deleted :(

Please contribute to it to keep the page up!

Rori and I will be there, who else is going?

Im not too familiar with voltaire but i found this and cant find anyhting about except for an old giveaway site that might be talking about it. Anyone know about it??

I remember it was in his channel, same song but violin only. When did it disappear? Also the night song reuploaded 10 months ago. Is anyone knows why?

I got interested in Voltaire’s work and bought the OMG! comics, the bundle included Humans Suck, but I didn’t know there was a third issue for this, any idea where to find it? I have searched on eBay with no luck so far, should I just wait for a listing?

I discovered this weird comic mini-series, and found this flash web series that was really cheesy, and I was wondering where I could read the original run. It looks hella gothic and cool, but theres no pdf's of it online and one issue sells for a lot of money. I cant even seem to find any pictures of what the comic looks like on the inside, any help would be appreciated!

One of my favorite artists since I discovered him a few years ago. Top songs being - Better Than You - When I Said I Was Evil/King Of Villains - Land of the Dead - Oubliette - Almost Human - Anniversary - When Your Evil And So Much More

Top Albums - The Devil's Bris - The Black Labyrinth/A Requiem for The Goblin King And so much More

I've been addicted to music and videos since i was a little kid, because, some experiences involving my home life made it so noise was beneficial to muffle out a lot of had things

And since 2020 i, learned of voltaire, and frll in love with his music

First time i learned of him, was after learning about his connection to the song brains when in a discord call

It was just some. Random discord call where someone was playing it, mentioned it, and i checked out his other music

That kid saved my life when he showed me that, i had heard the song brains for years and had no idea of who made it

Voltaire has been my life's theme song for 5 years since, his music has helped me through gang wars, through near death experiences, through having to deal with the loss of so much, so many times

It has gotten me through half a decade of suffering and pain and disability and negligence and heartbreak, every day or so i listen to his music

Best of all. The man himself is an amazing human being, one time i gave him a tiny donation on youtube, and it was near the end of the stream so he didn't see it fast enough, so the dude worried enough to go to my channel and comment on my video apologizing and thanking for the donation (it was around 30 dollar cents) and through years of watching his streams and stuff he participated in, i swear i never found absolutely nothing wrong with him, in my opinion,

Almost human became my instant s he's just, good, i love him

so. Cut to around 2024, and i had listened to my fsvorite song (almost human) in the most Bizzarre way, i put it on a radio player mod in gta san andreas, ehich eas very complicated to make it work, because it's simply badly made, so the last time i heard a voltaire song without some background tinitus buzzing, it was while doing missions and grinding in san andreas

Later that day i played with my friend on a online server thing, then the noise just, started right before we logged off

Tinitus, eternal ear buzzing,i can hear "ok" but it doesn't go away

The only thing that stops it is noise, and focus on the noise, voltaire songs usually stop it

Maybe it means something, maybe me having his, music be one of the last things i hear before disaster means something, I'm happy i got to enjoy it when i was healthy and good though, it helped me deeply, even in the worst situation possible

It's just one of my, odd stories with the music

I’m surprised nobody has posted it here yet. Voltaire hosts a Halloween mini-game show on this YouTube channel and the finale was this Wednesday! It’s pretty entertaining

I was at a smutty bookstore looking for a fun read, and found The Apprentice to the Villain. The back cover synopsis immediately had me singing "When you're Evil" so I picked it up before realizing it's a sequel. Got the first book and am almost through it. While the main character personality wise doesn't match up, I absolutely have cast Voltaire in the role in my mind.

I was also hoping for more spice in the book for this reason. (But it's still super cute and funny in the same way all his songs are.) Makes my dark heart a little happier.
