Miskatonically Correct, Damn Near Impossibilly! New York's Al-most Evil! Unpopular Music for Unpopular People. The Arkhams are a three-piece rock n roll band from Queens, NYC, favoring music ending in the suffix "-abilly", Not just another psychobilly band, not just another rockabilly band, they play music like you've never heard (except for the covers, some of which some of you may have heard.), while still respecting your good taste. The Arkhams have a sound that blends all their influences together, yet keeps a coherent, consistent, characteristic, signature sound. With the name "Arkham" being a reference to a town made infamous in H.P. Lovecraft lore (and simultaneously an asylum in Batman comics, that itself being a tip of the hat to Lovecraft), it's no surprise that the songs have recurring themes of insanity. The Arkhams thrive on their musical (and personal) eccentricity, while nodding to those whom have influenced them. A live set is a sharp shock, with most songs connected to the next, relenting few times between songs for slow songs or quick breathers and then onto the next aural assault. Formed in 2006 as a side project (and has subsequently surpassed side project status), the Arkhams have already shared stages with the Meteors, The Nekromantix,Zombie Ghost Train, The Kings of Nuthin', Three Blue Teardrops, the Koffin Kats, the Chop Tops, the Scofflaws, The Aggrolites, Sasquatch & the Sick-a-Billys, Al & the Black Cats, to name a few, with more to come. While the Arkhams may be a relatively new band, the members are not new on the scene. Matt the Knife, Seanzi Dirtbag, and Bobcat are well-seasoned local recurring characters, whom you may recognize from some other bands they are currently in, or have been in, in the past. (Lady Anne & the Invaders, the Black Market Band, Bamboula, the Meathookers, Crankenstein, Hobo, the Devil Spades, American Noise, NY Wrecks, the Slanderin'(for a few shows, anyway). On an added "note" Matt the Knife was also the winner of the 2007 Heavy Rebel Weekender Upright Bass Slapdown. The first CD "Live at the Continental NYC" is no longer available, but the Studio Full-Length debut, "ROAD TO ARKHAM" is AVAILABLE NOW!!! to purchase, follow instructions to the left or buy mp3s above! Enjoy! Thanks for the Support!

Thanks for the add! I like your version of psychobilly and the mad, insidious influence of H.P. Lovecraft upon you. I hope you like Lurking Fear, my living dead horror punk/death rock/experimental/mental/psychodelic band and our monster maniac music! Check us out. Have a beer with Lurking Fear! Preferably Lurking Fear listening conditions: late at night, with the lights off, the music turned up loud, and intoxicating chemicals in your bloodstream. We are brain dead zombies back from the grave and exist undead online, where we feast on fresh flesh and hunger for BRAINS! "Gonna eat your brains! Take your knowledge." Zombie Doctor from Grindhouse: Planet Terror. We wrote our own songs and had our own strange sound, yet we acknowledge what inspired us. Our influences include writers H.P. Lovecraft, Alan Moore, and Ambrose Bierce, as well as countless horror movies, the Misfits, the Cramps, Black Flag, the Gun Club, Joy Division, the Ramones, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Bauhaus, the Smiths, Suicidal Tendencies, the Velvet Underground, the Doors, Patti Smith, Sonic Youth, AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Iggy and the Stooges, numerous Sixties psychedelic garage bands, "Monster Mash," the Man In Black, Johnny Cash, and Britney Spears --- just kidding! Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Yours Truly Undead, Craig from Lurking Fear
