Okay, I'm going to throw a few more into the mix:

Xmal Deutschland
Skeletal Family
Ghost Dance
Sex Gang Children
Rose of Avalanche
Strawberry Switchblade

All much loved among my former friends in the goth community (even though Strawberry Switchblade were nothing like Goth)


Reminisce away....

I can't remember who, but someone on the old board went to see them last year and seemed to come away very happy.

I set my eyes on a Peter Murphy solo album on my last exursion into a record shop.It was his last one.I resisted,i just knew it would have ended in the bin at one point.I bet sonicl that you are sucker for Love and Rockets.

10/10 - Go to the top of the class.

I have a soft spot for them, yes, but no records. I'm also a sucker for Tones on Tail.

porkmarras 07.19.2006 07:53 AM

Tones on Tail i like too.Love and Rockets are more of a love/hate affair but i can't bring myself to slagging them off because deep down i know i appreciate their music more than not.You have excellent taste geez.

a lot of these bands ripped their look off from siouxsie sioux.

Massenvernichtungswaffen 07.19.2006 09:10 AM

The Goth culture disappeared centuries ago. I'm sure they didn't all wear black and complain about the bounding darkness of the heart. LOL. They were warriors and kings. Horse thieves. They even sacked Rome once.

why don't "goths" call themselves something else like Sad-ites or something? or Dark Ones?

shat shat

Trasher02 07.19.2006 10:01 AM

The Cure is goth???
Fuck that shit

Hip Priest 07.19.2006 10:03 AM

THey are usually liked by goths, for whatever reason. I agree with you though.

'Goth' seems to mean 'liked by goths' rather than being of a similar style. I just rode with it, really.
