Standalone - Standalone (2019)

Standalone is the synthesizer driven new-wave solo project of Steven Seibold (me). With a collection of tools, handmade metal crashers, shakers, toy piano, vintage synthesizer and drums, I've re-invented myself. Music that shaped us from the 80's and 90's was emotional, skillful, melodic and relatable… this is what I want to achieve as an artist. Having founded the industrial-punk band Hate Dept., and a strong presence in the famed industrial-rock group Pigface, I am versed in enthusiastic and motivated entertainment. The debut album is purposely recorded and produced with the feel of a raw live performance. On stage, the show is both a solo act with an assortment of clanking steel with electronic keyboard accompaniment, and a duo with Ivan Kazak on drums. Standalone is what we feel, every single one of us.
