I'm in need of some good music for listening whilst writing this novella - A Day In My Death. It's a sort of mash-up of zombie horror and steampunk with humour and romance thrown in for good measure. Also, it's sort of Post-Apocalypse but not Apocalypse end of the world; it's more of some societies have collapsed (e.g Britain and America) but others still survive. Can anyone recommend anything?

Thanks for introducing me to this song and band! I think I might possibly have had it stuck on replay for the last few days... /: (;

Unhallowed Land by Vernian Process.

War Stories - Unkle. The whole album works. It kinda sounds like a soundtrack for a zombie flick to me.

Joan Crawford - Blue Oyster Cult... It's about a zombie.

A lot of stuff by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club would work for the steam punk.

Gah, a correction to my post. It's called Unhallowed Metropolis.

Pretty much anything by Apocalyptica would nail zombie/post apocalyptic on the head, but especially try their album "Cult".

For the steampunk theme, "Counter Clockwise" by the group Thanatopsis.

For humorous zombies: Undead Anthem, from one of Radical Face's earlier music projects. He's kindly put it up for free download on his website. :)

The Sherlock Holmes soundtrack has a fun steampunk feel. You might like to check out the track "Discombobulate."
