“Sean Woodward is, without a doubt, one of THE most fascinating figures in the Post-Industrial underground.” – Heathen Harvest. Read the whole review at Heathen Harvest.

Already described as “a perfect mixture of surreal, curious, magical and dark moments”, my new album as Gothick includes 12 original songs of love and mysticism, including Poh Teck Tung in memory of Peter ‘Sleazy’ Christopherson and Walworth Road Surrealist, inspired by the artist Austin Osman Spare.

As well as writing and performing the songs I also mixed and produced the album at The War Room studio in Warmbrook, Albion.

It is released by Quartier23 in Berlin on Monday, 23rd May 2011 and has already nearly sold out on pre-orders.

Coming Soon : The Crystal Parliament & Other Stories by Sean Woodward

Follow the adventures of Lord Jonathan Void of Headley, his daughter Lady Elizabeth and a cast of Victorian gentry and villainy including the mysterious Magister, K’Lar (the gentleman ape), Vice-Marshall Abrahams and Lieutant Greaves. Be astonished at the might of the rail steam juggernaut The Imperium. Be in awe of the commercial shenanigans of the trade in Crystal. Gasp at the strange behaviours of the people of the Court of Paris and the modern wonder of the Victorian Age that is the Channel Bridge.

The Crystal Parliament & Other Stories brings together the steampunk adventures of Jonathan Void, the intrigue of the time-tripping, occult detectives The Cabal and the science fiction wonder of the Tales from The Rim. For the first time stories which appeared in Estronomicron magazine are gathered together to show the genre-spanning tapestry majesty of the tales. A vast narrative spanning Victorian England, The Second World War and the depths of space is brought to life.

Publication is currently under discussion.

When not working on the two new albums and two new compilation tracks from Gothick , I was asked to design a cover for a new anthology of poetry and prose. The image to the right was the original based upon the client brief. After some reflection and feedback from the client, the more sparse image on the left was produced. I think it works better and in the context of a pamphlet probably fits the style better too. Expect to see the publication around September.
