Summary
Cold Clockwork Doll is the confirmed working title of Babylon Zoo's third album. It was supposed to be released in 2005, according to Jas Mann. Mann was the band's main and possibly only official member during the majority of the band's existence and he revealed more about the album and the plans he had for it during Q&A sessions and a few announcements on the Babylon Zoo fan forum, which is now archived.[1]
During one of these Q&A's or announcements, Mann alledgedly invited fans to send over random words, which he, as form of a challenge, was supposed to all include on the album.
Availability
A lack of updates has lead fans to assume the album eventually had gotten cancelled or failed to find a distributor label. Mann reportedly had a label of his own, Hub Records, which got mentioned on the fan forum. Only one official release ever appeared through it though, a 3 track album/EP, by an act called Mariachi Static, which featured Jas Mann too. These tracks are still available for free streaming and downloading on the Babylon Zoo website.[2]
