  • SteamShipKillers CD
    Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    A musical alchemy creating the steamCRUNK sonic circus experience-- listen and you too can find your sea or street urchin way into the WIREFOREST. These tracks are at once ghoulish, complex, rowdy, anachronistic yet utterly out of time and history, symphonic, heartbreaking, dirge-celebratory and feature: guitars, moustaches, mandolin, clarinet, corset snaps, distant doom-boding drums, melodica, accordion, ukulele, violin, viola, bass...

    Click the button and soon an encoded disc of musical delights will wing its way to you through the non-electronic post!

about

"Musically sophisticated and immensely talented, wildly unusual and diverse in material and presentation, a Dada-esque circus carnival run amuck, and just plain good ‘not-always-so-clean’ fun." - Boston Survival Guide - 2010

"It’s this combination of wit and strength, aided by an imposing physical presence, adoption of eccentric and appealing steampunkery and fearlessly booming voice, that makes Sickert so seductive. He’s a shaman whose cult embraces dancing into the abyss, or at least strutting around the edge for a while.

And now he’s given us the soundtrack. - Marc Levy - 2010
