Description/Reviews: 

Persuading the combination of Science-Fiction and the Steampunk universe in the 19th and early 20th century, Tom Slatter is one of the people who carries both of the genres and makes it a conceptual mini storylines with a Rock Opera feel, and his third album, Three Rows of Teeth released this year, deal with the issues of Murder, Betrayal, Body Parts being replaced with robotic ideas, make-up Spiritualists, and of course an airship with too many teeth. So you can understand this is something out of a weird storyline and it feels like if it's almost straight from the realms of the short stories from the late great Ray Bradbury and the inspirations of Erik Larson’s The Devil in the White City to set the atmosphere of the 1890s and early 1900s.

The music has this combination of William D. Drake, early Genesis, Radiohead, and Caravan at the same time that is Catchy, Electronic, Haunting, Whimsical, and Adventurous at the same time that can really take you into different directions and locations from the short stories that Tom writes and sings at the same time on how some of the characters went through and how the price they paid for what they have done to themselves.
