The ætherweb is such a great thing, its waves keep washing endless material to publish on the shores of the diverse sites I use to mingle with my fellow Steampunks, and it was thus I came across this band:
Poison Garden (official website)
They are a young band, formed in 2012 and they have released their first single earlier this year, Days of Steam.
This is the video:
As a metal fan for over twenty years, this brings a smile to my face. Even better, on their website, Poison Garden state the following:
Fully convinced that wearing a brown corset and a top hat is not enough to play retro-futuristic music, Poison Garden aims at releasing Steampunk from the framework of role-playing games and comics fairs in order to introduce it in the everyday life of the rising century: a „street“ Steampunk, a Neo Steampunk.
I am not too sure about the „Neo“ since as far as I am concerned, Steampunk was never confined to role-playing games and comic fairs in the first place, but I fully support their desire to take Steampunk to the street.
So, I have subscribed to their Youtube channel and I am eagerly waiting for an EP or maybe even a full album to be released. Go check them out. They also have Facebook page with additional info and more photos.
We love them and play them on our show. They have a great sound!
