Influences
Bauhaus, Joy Division, Killing Joke, as well as various other New wave, punk and Heavy metal Bands. Horror movies and cartoons also hold sway in our world. Non-reality over reality and the eternal quest to never grow up!
Sounds Like
Our music has its roots in standard hard rock with a dark feel to it. Melodic vocals are hilighted in front of simple arrangements and melodies. We sometimes get compared to Peter Murphy, Joy Division and sometimes even Depeche Mode.
So you want to know more about The Dirge Carolers ?
Like a canister of toxic gas hidden away by the government; The Dirge Carolers have been around for a little while. Brewing, popping up here and there in different incarnations, mutating. Now after years of slow leaking, the canister is ready to split wide open. Rushing out into the open air and water supply to pollute, mutate and eventually destroy everything that is wholesome and safe. Don't get any on you and stay clear of the llama pen and you still won't be safe! It may come as death rock or out and out Goth Schlock or even Steam Punk. It really doesn’t matter what non reality you subscribe to. Succumb or resist, either way you will never be the same! Follow Chris, Peter, Heather and Dorian in their musical fugue state as they bump into adversity, trample good taste and trip on their Freudian slips (excuse me but your slip is showing...)
So you say” I’ve seen these guys before and they don't look the same to me!' Well, DUH......Decay and mutation have taken its toll. Sure, there were different members in the past and there may be new members in the future but they will always be The Dirge Carolers! Love them or hate them but you can't deny them!
The band is moving ahead with a new three song EP entitled “Walk Like Men” and is planning on a new full length CD for early ‘08. Check them out in the clubs and party like it’s 1899! If you are crazy enough to want to contact them, just send them a message at dirgecarol@yahoo.com or visit www.myspace.com/thedirgecarolers.
