   About The Gothic Archies

An original CD inspired by Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events

Released just in time for the final installment of the series - Book the Thirteenth : The End!

Watch the video for "Scream and Run Away"

The Gothic Archies, a musical project of Stephin Merritt, the songwriter best known for the band The Magnetic Fields, released a full-length CD featuring the music from A Series of Unfortunate Events audiobooks on October 10, 2006. This was the first time that all the original music from the audiobooks was collected on one CD.

The final CD features 13 songs, which correspond to the 13 books in the series, with two additional bonus tracks inspired by A Series of Unfortunate Events. All music is performed by The Gothic Archies.

“For Crying Out Loud: a reading by Lemony Snicket with music by the Gothic Archies, featuring Lemony Snicket on percussion”.

I am not entirely sure, but I think that this is the part where I leave a short message about my graditude to you for choosing to accept the thought of me being a friend of yours. It would mean very much to me if it could. I'm sorry to say that I am physically not allowed to thank you and be totally honest. Honesty first, friendship second, emotions are dreams.

One who is bittered, and long since unwilled. He slips reminisce to once he knew. A silver its' cloud, the casting and shroud. Once his mind sky blue. In numbered years, some are found wise. But, this one had grown and found the surmise, That if youth eternall could be stayed, then how so was it children could fade to gray?

Hey guys!!

I know this is going to sound utterly insane, but have you ever read the book Neverwhere? I just finished reading it, and I absolutely *loved* it...but for some reason, I pictured you guys like the two characters Mister Croup and Mister Vandemar. Very fitting in my opinion.

Cheers!
