I think they fit under the "dark cabaret" moniker quite nicely. I actually grabbed their album on Monday after a friend recommended it to me but I have not had a chance to give it a proper listen. All I know is that they have a full LP coming out very soon and that they're raising some eyebrows among some music critics and fans.
The lyrics are where the band really stand out, a brooding mixture of dark and delightfully evil lyrics delivered in a humorous fashion. Fans of gallows humor will love this group, here's a few examples:
I wanted to put myself in your position to figure you out
So I took a chainsaw to my skull and extracted my brain out
-"Outrageous"
I’m going to be a murderer
I can claim to see the future and
I’m a greedy girl who gorges on the grasp end of a grudge
And I won’t budge ‘cause
-"I'm Going To Be A Murderer"
Don’t pretend you’re drunk that whisky’s down your dress
And I know those pills are aspirin for your head
An obvious fact ‘cause if they weren’t bitch you’d be dead
Well I’m sick of this now, you’ve crossed the line
- "Trust"
