okay it's an australian virtual band called skeleton staff first album released 2010 * . upon listening to One song because i can't be arsed to listen to anything more from them , it's got a lot of money pumped into it for Nil output. a classic case of mixed marketing. I'm assuming it's an industry plant/ rich person's flop pet project due to the high production value.
from scrolling their website they have a series of comics based off the characters and even a few music videos, all available for free online.
i was originally just yelling into the void about this but the more i look into them the more of a shame it seems that they made such incongruous choices re:branding because theres a lot of creativity and effort put in, and yet they seem to be a complete commercial flop. i say commercial because they seem to be trying their hardest to create something marketable to the slavering masses but they can't seem to decide on which masses they're marketing to.
it's difficult to compile information about this project. no wikipedia page, no information on the creative minds behind the project on their website either. it's probably better that these people don't have their names and faces associated with it anyways, as it may not be good for future career prospects LMAO?
*originally said that kurfurstendammned(2016) was their first album , but it was actually their album solipsism (2010).
for real what audience where they even trying to approach with this. yes the tiny lip fillers twink the furry the woman with big boobs and whatever that thing is and its cabaret psych rock and its gay on purpose but we're gonna use only boomer humor and also make ourselves look like white supremacists . like if you're going to make a band exclusively to sell merchandise at least lower the common denominator. pick an audience.

In celebration of 1 month of KURFÜRSTENDAMMNED. Skeleton Staffs startling and politically relevant new album.
Critics find themselves out of BRECHT trying to fathom it.
