Pfeiffer began working on music under the name Vernian Process in the winter of 2003. He released a number of homemade downloadable albums over the next 4 years before being approached by Irigoyen about joining the project to work on Behold the Machine. From that point forward, Vernian Process evolved beyond a solo project.
Throughout 2009, as work on the album progressed, Vernian Process sought out additional members in order to play shows to support the upcoming release of Behold the Machine, as well as record new material for future albums. Zarate joined in 2009, followed by Fargo, Figueroa, and Thomas in the latter half of 2009 and early 2010. They also feature Erica "Unwoman" Mulkey on most of their live performances. In early 2011 Free Fargo left the project, and a few short months later drummer Eugene Dryer III joined in his place.
Behold the Machine was released on October 1, 2010.
Vernian Process' musical influences range from Post-Punk/New Wave, Prog-Rock, Classic Industrial, Darkwave, Deathrock, Trip-Hop, Dreampop, Cabaret, Neo-Classical (and many more) filtered through a dimly lit Victorian lens. At times, epic, militant, and mechanical. While equally pastoral, serene, uplifting and positive when it chooses to be.
Vernian Process attempts to address collective human issues in the context of a dark, and whimsical 19th Century setting.
The project has featured guest contributions from Pasha Smith, Mitzi Jones, Malcom Schreeck of the Victorian Synthpunk band Unextraordinary Gentlemen, and Allison Curval of the group The Clockwork Dolls.

I absolutely love this song, it's amazing! And this is a great video for it, Steamboy rocks. :]

Amazing to see you're here on Youtube. Tell me, is there a video in the works for Zeitgeist? That piece is my favorites out of the ones you have done. And nice choice of footage for this one. Steamboy rocks the steampunk world.

Man, I LOVE your work. And why, yes, this video kicks copious amounts of ass!

This is one of the best steampunk music ever.

Awesome song. I've found your EP, The Forgotten Age recently, it's a masterpiece. :D
The Barbary Ghost
Thank you very much. It's been ages since I listened to this song. :)
The Barbary Ghost
I haven't really considered doing a video for it. But if I could find footage of clocktowers I would be all for it! Glad you like this one though! The video for Behold the Machine is all clockwork, gears, and factory machinery.
The Barbary Ghost
Thanks! I'm glad you like it! All of the machine samples are actually taken straight out of the film. That's why I used it for the video. =D
