Moral of song, never piss off someone who can make time bombs XD

I love that the time signature is in 3/4. With the ticking carrying the rhythm, you'd expect it to go tick-tock, tick-tock, 1, 2, 3, 4, but it doesn't. It's three beats per bar. That's totally intentionally, and wickedly clever.

Never heard of Clockpunk, and think it is a pointless description. The musical genres are based on the established literary and art genres that preceded them. The music was intended to go hand in hand with the rest of the movement Steampunk is Neo-Victorian from hindsight of modern technology. Included are clockworks, Airships and an influence of musical theater (which was popular in the 1890s). DieselPunk is the 1940s and all things from that era. The era is the genre name.

@OhMyGodItsAChimney I have tea! :)

Dr Steel is as much dieselpunk as he is steampunk. We define these genres thematically, as opposed to through beats or instruments or other physical quantities, and because these are alternate pasts that have never existed what defines them ultimately is completely subjective. It's not for me, or anyone else other than the viewer to decide, so please, let's stop bickering about who's a what-now and just enjoy the good music :)

@MrLeomonkey07 If you were talking about the actual story then maybe it would be clockpunk, but the actual music is completely steampunk music.

@TheLadyDawner It's like the Carling adverts. Clockwork Quartet don't make music videos. But if they did, they'd probably be the best music videos in the world.

Dieselpunk? Clockpunk? Arcanepunk? Dear Christ, this genre is turning into the "core" clusterfuck.

My best guess is that watchmakers use magnifiers and glasses one eye at a time for their whole life and that can only worsen their eyesight as they get older

@MrLeomonkey07 As is arcanepunk.
But like dieselpunk they are sup genres of the steampunk genre.
So in theory there are four different genres in steampunk works:
Steampunk, clockpunk, dieselpunk, and arcanepunk.
I love the clockwork quartet!
I wish that they made musicvideos :3
