The setting is very evocative and the art really conveys it well. The parallel to the world of Thief really stakes it down for me. Supposing one wanted to get in the mood while prepping, or set the mood during play, what might be some music that also fits the tone?

The Decemberists “The Mariners Revenge Song”
The whole damn Gorey End by the Tiger Lillies and Kronos Quartet….. Perhaps all of the Tiger Lillies…. But that may not be to your taste. What music do you think fits the tone?
Flogging Molly
The Dreadnoughts
I’ve discovered that the full soundtracks for Thief 1 & 2, at least, are up on YouTube. Which may do the trick.
Darkwave will probably fit if you’re looking for the ambiant nature of the Thief soundtracks.
Outside of the obvious sources like Dishonored, I’d also probably go with some of the more modern Batman soundtracks, like the Nolan movies or the recent Arkham games.
