	John Keats' "Lamia"
		Lamia was a beautiful woman whose children were taken away in jealousy by Hera because Zeus had loved her.
		Lamiae, obviously related to the persona of Lamia, the fearful child-snatcher, were handsome ghostly women who by various sensuous means lured young men to their beds.
		So although Lamia's mythological origins are quite different from those of Lilith, at some unidentified point ("in later legend"), Lamia's identity was merged with that of the Lamiae and she was, therefore, endowed with characteristics strikingly similar to those of Lilith.

		Thus gentle Lamia judg'd, and judg'd aright, That Lycius could not love in half a fright, So threw the goddess off, and won his heart More pleasantly by playing woman's part, With no more awe than what her beauty gave, That, while it smote, still guaranteed to save.
		The way was short, for Lamia's eagerness Made, by a spell, the triple league decrease To a few paces; not at all surmised By blinded Lycius, so in her comprized.

	Splendid Magazine reviews Lamia: Dark Angel
		Borrowing their name from a tragic figure from Greek mythology, this Argentine act serves up standard EBM with a novel twist: they get medieval on your ass, harnessing what they call "antique" music (mainly harpsichord riffs and baroque organ leads) and grafting those cobwebbed sounds onto the usual electro-danse programming.
		Additionally, in what almost seems to be an afterthought, Lamia throw some soprano and spoken word (courtesy of Claudia Rolando) into the mix, accentuating the music with a spike of sexuality.
		Responsibility for Lamia's stunted appeal appears to fall on the shoulders of Juan Andres Celasco, who's responsible for all the beats, keyboards and programming.
