- Mastered by mixea.com Schrödinger's Catwalk (The Quantum Vogue) — Folk metal crashing into a big band. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle as a panic attack. It's the first single from Cortical Circus, a 23-track concept album where every song is a different psychological condition told from the inside, each one built on a different genre fusion: swing metal with reggae, bolero, doom, Motown, klezmer. Third album of the project. Velvet Pendulum is theatrical big band metal in the vein of Diablo Swing Orchestra and Mr. Bungle.
