about

'The Cremation Of Sam Mcgee' is a dark musical adaptation of the poem written by Robert W Service in 1907 and tells the macabre tale of the cremation of a gold prospector who freezes to death near Lake Laberge, Yukon, Canada, and told by the man who swears a promise to cremate him before his passing-However he gets more than he bargained for as the listener discovers as the song goes on.

This track is dedicated to Stephen C Davis from The GASP radio show (The Gothic Alternative Steampunk and Progressive Radio Show) which was launched in 2014 and he has supported many alternative artists by featuring them on the show.

This song is a thank you to Stephen for his support of Dark Sinfonia over the years not to mention our other projects such as Fear Incorporated and Voodoo Bible amongst others he has kindly given airplay.
