Strange but impressive mix of metal, horror soundtracks, and jazzy bits. The most obvious comparisions are Mr. Bungle, Fantomas and Strapping Young Lad. Like those bands – this is a lot of fun and really all over the map. Heavy music for those who don’t normally listen to anything heavy.
(((((1))))) Creepy piano and vocal bit that’s pretty close to the main theme to the horror classic “Suspiria”.
(((((2))))) Uppity, crazy tempo metal/hardcore speed and histronic moments. Really intense.
((((3)))) Loud and jazz swaggery, “dark carnival” feeling. Insane shifts between tempos & genres at the 2 min. mark.
(((4))) Hard rock ballad-ish ‘ala Katatonia. Pretty straight-ahead with changes in vocals & volume.
(((((5))))) Gothic country? Yep – that’s’ right. Really excellent sound with banjo, horns and whilsting.
(((6))) Silly “la-la-la” space/private eye pop/rock with bursts of distorted vocals & heavy riffs.
((((7)))) Fast, melodic with really catchy vocals and riffs. Very nice.
(((8))) Bombastic string section, whispery vocals and some quasi-totalitarian rally skit ‘ala Pink Floyd’s “The Wall”.
((((9)))) Creepy soft sung vocals then poppy, clean vocals some heavy riffs then “easy listening”? Methinks they listen to Zappa.
(((10))) Uppity, rollin’ spacey, new wavey, heavy rock, ska, lounge & power pop? Skitsophernic to the point of utter silliness.
(((11))) Weird-ass sarcastic take on 70’s funk clichés but with dark lyrics. Kind ok but goes on too long.
(((12))) Lots of strings, paranoid vocals, sometimes spoken othertimes whispering. Weird but amusing.
