The Complete Chronicle
Lionel Cohen Presents
Impossible Machines · Victorian Fury · Industrial Requiem
Steam hisses through brass valves. Gears grind beneath flickering gaslight.
Iron hearts beat in rhythm with forgotten empires — and one extraordinary figure
walks the thin border between the possible and the utterly absurd.
Steampunk Zed is a musical chronicle: two albums tracing the impossible life
and the improbable death of a Victorian anti-hero forged in coal smoke, aether,
and the melancholy of worlds that never were.
The Complete Chronicle
Lionel Cohen is a composer of retro-futuristic soundscapes — conjuring worlds where brass gleams under gaslight and every clockwork heart has a story. Steampunk Zed is his most ambitious narrative: an operatic journey through an alternate Victorian age powered by impossible machines and darker ambitions.
Blending industrial percussion, cinematic orchestration, and haunting synthetic textures, the two volumes form a diptych — birth and oblivion, hubris and elegy. Each track is a chamber in a vast mechanical cathedral, designed to be heard in candlelight with fog at the windows.
