Cirque Noir

We, the components of CIRQUE NOIR, are practitioners of the utterly strange "non-genre" that is the illegitimate love child of goth / new-wave / punk / cabaret / classic rock / and diabolical circus music -- in other words, STEAMPUNK! Or, as we prefer to phrase it, "BURLESQUE BLITZ BIZARRE"! Hmmm, "What's that???", you ask. Well, I shall tell you. A severe aerial bombardment of ludicrous vaudevillian song and music acts! (Performed by walking, talking, life-sized undead dollies with too much makeup). CIRQUE NOIR's sounds, images, and words act as time-honored "sign posts" which lead one's gaze towards the deeper and more subtle mystical themes of "KNOWLEDGE vs. WISDOM," "FACES" (masks, make-up, and dolls' faces: in essence, the "surface" of things vs. the unmanifest Reality beneath), "STRINGS" (manipulation of the individual human self by external influences vs. Self-Sovereignty and the power of the Will), "DARKNESS" (the willful inner act of delving into the esoteric "Depths" of the unknown dusty corners within the human mind / consciousness), and "INFINITY"...the progressive unveiling of the true nature of the "Self"...or, in other words, THE BEYOND WITHIN. CIRQUE NOIR's musical creations and manifestations contain many, many layers and chambers and locked rooms. Only you, the listener and perceiver, decide how FAR you want to go...how DEEP you want to DELVE. Just step within the realm of our darkly-shrouded yet strangely luminescent tent... ...WELCOME TO THE CIRCUS!
