The Serpent from Paradise City

The newest member of Mistula is Slash. He is Manx’s newfound love.
If nudity or snakes offend you, please refrain from looking any further.

You will find Slash wrapped around Manx Minuet on the banner of the official Mistula band site. He will also make an appearance in the upcoming Mistula music video for Baptized, directed by Eric Sanchez and Mike Fallarme.

Eric found Slash in a pet store while looking for a snake to fill the role of, well, a snake in his music video. The crew planned to let Slash go after the shoot, but Manx Minuet was smitten with the green fellow and amid violent objections, decided to keep him as a pet.


She named her Slash because she said he came from a snake pit deep in the jungle. (Eric said he came from the storage room of an exotic pet store, but Manx won’t believe him.)

She insists that Slash is a small python, but the encyclopedia (which Manx hates to read) states that he is a Thamnophis sauritus sackenii or a Peninsular Ribbon Snake. He likes rock, goldfish and posing in front of the camera. He can hold a pose longer than Manx Minuet. He can even say “Cheesssssssse.”

To Slash we say, “Welcome to the jungle!”

Beautiful as ever, Manx. Your Slash seems to be a very lucky snake.

Niwee! Thank you so much!

Slash is as good at posing as Manx! They are gorgeous together.
April 27th, 2007 - 16:56
He’s my darling. I’m so glad you like him!
April 23rd, 2007 - 13:15
Oh Manx, you are sin incarnate. I have a lot to confess!
April 27th, 2007 - 17:07
Would you like to sin with me? I’m sure eL won’t mind.
April 23rd, 2007 - 14:07
Flaming red hot and elegant beauty Miss Minuet…
April 27th, 2007 - 17:12
You flatter me, Jocelyn. But thank you, anyways.
April 23rd, 2007 - 14:55
Wow! the lovely Manx. Red hair really suits you the best. Thanks for the gift to us Black Rosary members.
April 27th, 2007 - 17:23
You’re always welcome! Thank you very much!

Is Slash a trained snake? It’s mind-blowing how well he poses with Manx! Damn, Joey, you never cease to amaze me.
Love the wallpapers. Good thing Manx isn’t a real woman so I know I can never have a body like hers EVER.
April 27th, 2007 - 17:28
Yep, you will never have these unsightly joints, Mathilde. *sigh*
We’re not sure if Slash is a trained snake. Maybe his kind is naturally gifted with camwhoring skills? Anyhow, we’re just very glad to have found him.
April 23rd, 2007 - 16:53
The…the fourth pic from the top…I…the…
Slash is not the only snake slithering right now. That’s for sure.
April 27th, 2007 - 17:32
Yes, Jie, there must be millions of snakes slithering in the Amazon jungle right now. Trying to escape these white men in safari shorts who risk their own lives trying to capture them on film.
Fortunately, Slash volunteers to be on film. We’re lucky.
April 23rd, 2007 - 17:12
Wow, these pictures are really gorgeous
Slash poses really perfectly ^-^
April 27th, 2007 - 17:39
Thank you, Claudia. That means a lot to us.
April 23rd, 2007 - 18:14
Haha, my snake Machigai likes to slither all over my sister’s naked Lishe too! XD
Snakes rule and so does little Slash!
April 27th, 2007 - 17:41
Hurray, you have a snake, too! What kind of snake is Machigai?
Snakes rule!
April 28th, 2007 - 02:51
Heehee, Machigai is a red rat snake. I could send you a few piccies of Machigai and Ghia (my sister’s Lishe) if you’d like. ^.^
Snakes can pose very well…but only when THEY want to. lol
April 23rd, 2007 - 23:18
Slash is lovely
And Manx is beautiful, as always ^^ And ooh, I’m looking forward to the new music video! When is it out?
April 27th, 2007 - 17:43
Thank you, Hanna.
The music video is set for release this May, if all goes well. Stay tuned!
April 24th, 2007 - 11:35
lucky Slash! Manx your so damn beautiful! i really like the red hair. it suits you well. you look more sexy.
April 27th, 2007 - 17:46
I’ll try to stay a redhead then. Thank you, Patty!
April 24th, 2007 - 18:51
Manx is hot… But I think my dad likes her more than I do. He saw the Mistula wallpapers, you see. Hee. He asked me to transfer them to his cellphone so could use them as cellphone wallpapers.
I think it’s disturbing, though. o_O;
April 27th, 2007 - 12:30
yup… but hen it would be easier to get your parents to buy you a doll right?
April 27th, 2007 - 21:14
Hee. I guess… He was asking how we can order Volks and Luts BJDs online.
My brother’s a photographer. I might just convince him to teach me some of his tricks [and borrow his 350D], and then maybe i could make photostories too. XD
April 27th, 2007 - 17:49
Lauren, that is seriously funny. What a privilege to be on your Dad’s cellphone. I did observe that my nude photos always get a rousing reaction from straight men. I consider it a small feat. :3
April 25th, 2007 - 01:06
oh Slash…he’s a professional darling.
April 27th, 2007 - 19:11
He makes me proud. :3
April 25th, 2007 - 09:19
He’s adorable Manx. Together, you guys make a sizzling shoot!
April 28th, 2007 - 01:04
Aw, thank you. Slash completes me. He’s my sweet little serpent. :3
April 25th, 2007 - 11:54
I don’t really know how you do it Joey. You can make even the reptile pose well for photo shoot. geezzzz..
April 28th, 2007 - 01:18
Truth is, I had to play the flute and chant mantras for this, Mommy A.
JOKE!
Slash isn’t difficult to work with at all. He doesn’t fuss or bite. He tries to run away once in a while, but when he finds a cozy spot (e.g. Manx’s boobs), he stays there until you move him. He likes to be on the spotlight – maybe because it feels a lot like basking in the sun. Or maybe he just likes to bask in the attention, who knows?
April 25th, 2007 - 13:38
Thank you Manx and Slash for the sexy pictures!
April 28th, 2007 - 01:19
You’re welcome, Kishi!
April 27th, 2007 - 12:27
This is hot…
Im not a fan of snakes (even though I was born under the sign of the snake) but you just HAVE to love this…
April 28th, 2007 - 01:25
Snakes don’t have a lot of fans.
I blame these awful B-movies that portrayed them as man-eating monsters. Truth is, they’re very shy animals that would rather run than fight. Slash is a lover, not a fighter.
