A bouncy Synth-pop tune, combined with lyrics alluding to avaricious legends in Greek mythology and a chorus you won't get out of your head...

Genre-defying hot new London 3-piece, fusing Electro beats, orchestral arrangements and cabaret vocals to create an eclectic, haunting style all their own... Imagine the Weimar Era never ended; imagine the artists of yesterday lived on to the present and embraced the modern electro-sleaze sound while keeping their wry tounge-in-cheek style and outlandish performances. Imagine the bastard offspring of a Diva-like vocalist, Rasputina and Aphex Twin. Imagine Ute Lemper singing over dirty electro beats combined with a blend of traditional and experimental accompaniment... Imagine Kabarette Obscura! They are decadent, degenerate, young and beautiful. In a world that values Style over Substance, we could go far... Kabarette Obscura formed in London in the Summer of 2005 when the Guitarist (Divine) grew tired of seeing a lot of bands with no life or personality on the London live music scene. After a marathon session of watching Cabaret and Salon Kitty, he formed the idea for an Electro-sleaze band that took the spirit of Berlin Cabaret, with its larger than life performance and poignant lyrics and combined it with 21st Century music to create Cabaret for the Digital Generation. After advertising for fellow souls who shared his vision, he met Zeibura and Sammm - the rest, as they say, is history... We seek not only to play our music but to really put on a show! Too many artists view a gig as just an extended jam session and you might as well put their CD on in front of some cardboard cut-outs. We intend no one who sees our shows should forget us. We will strut, we will preen, we will perform, we will camp-it-up. We are both the artist and the subject - larger than life, yet contained within life. We will hold a mirror up to the world, then check our make-up in it...

Lyrics
You always tell me lies, you take me for a fool Whenever you're corrected you just tell the world you think it's cruel You make it out like you think you are a star The only way forward is to lose yourself, change who you are So take your twist in fate Avoiding certain doom Be careful what you say before You write your name on your tomb Get off your moral high horse Step into the real world Or your steed will throw you off You'll get what you deserve Take the hand of Pegasus, underneath the ground The darts of pride he held astride* flew once and never came around Speaking like the spider who hung herself** You'll be flowing with the styx***, dropped in the water by yourself So take your twist in fate Avoiding certain doom Be careful what you say before You write your name on your tomb Get off your moral high horse Step into the real world Or your steed will throw you off You'll get what you deserve ~~~
