SHOCKHEADED PETER, by Walter Sickert & The Army of Broken Toys

SHOCKHEADED PETER

by Walter Sickert & The Army of Broken Toys

supported by

Dr. Lab Rat A grim and jolly Dada-cabaret adaptation of the Struwwelpeter stories. Inventive and still affectionate towards the grisly cautionary tales for children. Quite enjoyable! Favorite track: Augustus and the Soup.

Gearald Becker Based on a German book of 'moral lesson' rhymes for children published in 1865 (so you should know what to expect!). I don't know why they left out the one about the three brats who kept hassling the Black guy, but still some pretty great stuff. Favorite track: Snip Snip (Suck-a-Thumb).
