* MurderBallad: [[spoiler:''The "The Watchmaker's Apprentice'']]
Apprentice", about said apprentice trying to frame his boss for said murder.
* [[RightOnTheTick At Six On The Dot]]
RevengeByProxy: A variation occurs in "The Watchmaker's Apprentice". After being fired by the watchmaker, the [[VillainProtagonist eponymous apprentice]] breaks into his master's shop in the middle of the night; wanting a more satisfying revenge than burglary or vandalism, he spends the entire night constructing a very special pocket watch. A week later, a customer buys the watch -- only for it to explode "at six on the dot," killing him instantly. As a result, the watchmaker is arrested for manslaughter, his business is left in ruins and his reputation obliterated. Meanwhile, the apprentice [[KarmaHoudini gleefully slinks off to the seaside]], knowing that [[TheBadGuyWins the whole plan has worked out like clockwork]].
* RightOnTheTick: "The Clockmaker's Apprentice" reveals that he has rigged the pocketwatch to [[spoiler: explode, killing the owner]] at precisely 6:00.
* SanitySlippageSong: ''The Doctor's Wife''
**
Wife'', a SteamPunk song about a doctor, trying and failing to cure his wife's deadly illness, over the course of several months.

Apprentice", who is trying to frame his boss for murder.
* VillainSongVillainSong: "The Watchmaker's Apprentice" is from the POV of a disgruntled ex-employee framing his boss for murder. As the song progresses, he gradually gets more and more unhinged:
-->''I rigged up a watch to do more than just chime\\
And I didn't balk once at the depth of my crime\\
The most perfect invention, that still kept impeccable time''

The band's music is dark, somewhat disturbing, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking catchy]], usually set in a pseudo-Victorian CrapsackWorld, which has been expanded on a bit more as of late with the site's webcomic series.
