Emma Milsom thought a job with director/playwright Teddy Winters would help her put her life back together. She hadn’t counted on the presence of British actor Sebastian Brand in the dilapidated old theater. Sebastian was the foremost actor in horror films, adept at playing monsters of every sort, and his behavior in real life wasn’t much of an improvement.

Empire of Purity traces the history of these efforts, showing how the policing and penalization of sexuality was used to justify American interventions around the world.

Of all the recordings to emerge from the Athens-via-Denver collective called Elephant 6, Neutral Milk Hotel’s second album is the one that has worked its way under the most skins.
