The Iron Chapel
The World of Aleister Douglass · Eric Kauschen
At the center of The Iron Chapel stands Aleister Douglass—dandy, machine-age occultist, survivor, and enigmatic guide. Across ten connected songs, he moves through a landscape of machinery, ritual, memory, scars, and return. Heavy guitars and brooding industrial textures meet organ, harpsichord, and strings beneath a commanding baritone vocal. The result is a theatrical rock opera meant to be experienced as a complete journey.
Completed November 2025
New England Noir
Eric Kauschen
New England Noir brings the swing and showmanship of big-band rockabilly into a guitar-driven world of electric blues, dark humor, and cinematic storytelling. From the mischievous bite of “By Invitation Only (Bite Me)” to the wintry warmth of “Christmas in New England,” its ten songs shift between swagger and sentiment, grounded in the atmosphere of New England after dark.
