Obscene Elegance: Elli Takes Over

If seduction had a switchblade and wore stockings, her name would be Elli. This shoot is pure noir erotica—part punk priestess, part bedroom goddess. Her tattoos scream poetry, her poses whisper rebellion. Every frame is a confrontation: with beauty, with taboo, with your expectations. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

📍The full series is now published in the new issue of Taste of Taboo Magazine!

The prompt is #Substance

The Cure, “A Short Term Effect” from Pornography, 1982

Lyric:
A day without substance, a change of thought
An atmosphere that rots with time
Colours that flicker in water, a short term effect

#TheCure had evolved steadily since their debut,Three Imaginary Boys, by the time they produced this atmospheric proto-#goth release.

I can't help but hear these lyrics as almost comically stereotypically goth-dreary now - the perspective of maturity, or world-weary cynicism? -
but they do reflect lead and driving force #RobertSmith's self awareness about the substances he and his bandmates were reputed to be indulging in at the time, and when I let go and sink into the music, yeah, it still works.
