about

This track was the first once we wrote for this era of songs. It appears re-recorded as a bonus track on the end of the 'Peculiar Events...' album, but we always felt that this version was better. For a long time, Carnival was our token set-opener at our gigs.

The song is set amongst a sort of travelling fairground/circus, and in the verses Wildi sings the part of a visitor to the fair, and Weezey sings the part of a trapeze artist. 'The Crooked Awaken' was meant as an epilogue to the story of Carnival where the crowds and laughter die away and leave just a few clowns to get a bit edgy and weird. There is always method to the madness...
