“Fortelling certain doom to the bouncing rhythm of tuba, bass, accordion, banjo, and tongue drum.” That’s how The Scarring Party describes “No More Room,” as in no more room in hell. You could add the following: Tin Pan Alley, Tom Waits, gothic slaughterhouse, phantasmagoria — it’s like, make sure the hatchet is safely in the garage, the double-barrel in the gun safe. There will be quite a party on the ship when the Scarring Party sets sail from Milwaukee for Singapore, but with evil lurking everywhere, will anyone survive the journey? Though not for everyone, these tracks should give you that little extra twist for which you might be searching.
Brilliant. More like this please … !
Yeah, that was quite awesome. Banjos AND accordions? Yessss.
Absofuckinglutely brilliant. More like this, please…!
Perfect. I second the desire for more like it.
Their album's only $8– why the hell not?
Tin Pan Alley + Tom Waits + gothic slaughterhouse + phantasmagoria + Murray Head = The Scarring Party
