The Miser’s Will IV: The Engineer

The fourth track from the Miser’s Will, a song cycle from my album Ironbark.

What’s it about?

In the previous songs we heard about the acquisition of some metal claws, a brain in a jar and a twisted metal skeleton. Now it is time to assemble them…

What’s going on musically?

This is in E lydian, a lovely major mode with a raised fourth which gives it a delicious, off kilter feel. The chorus chords are similar to the chorus the the first track and the bridge is inspired by the previous song.
