Erich Von Erik and the Stranger

Castle Life

(Self-issued)


Minimalist in construction, spare in ambience, yet of strange magnetism. Balanced atop a surfboard, Erich and the Stranger smash through a suburban garage wall with Crampsian banner aloft. This is not for pedestrian audiences, only listeners who crave the quirkily idiosyncratic.

Recommended: "Cracker Factory," "Along With Ghosts," "Squatching," "Off With Their Heads," "Castle Life," "Emergency," "Murder Burgers," "Daddy Was the Zodiac Killer," "Igor's Party," "Security Cameras," "The Random Hums"
