Corlyx are rapidly becoming one of my favourite bands. Their new album Purple Pain has been on my listening list this week quite a bit #darkwave #postpunk #goth #newmusic #gothmusic

"Crust punk is the coolest it's been in decades - and these 9 rising pub singers prove it" No idea who wrote this article but I have a trebuchet aimed at the sun with their name written on the seat 🙄

CDs might be a dying format but I have hundreds of them, and I just rediscovered this excellent compilation which lived in my DJ box for years. Strobelight's 'New Dark Age' compilation volumes that followed weren't too bad either. Show me your beloved CDs!

I took January off for a much needed break but I also figured that I'd go ahead and release the February edition of THE FADEOUT SESSION a few days early too, so here it is! hearthis.at/thefadeoutse...

On this day way back in 1979 Bauhaus would release what many define as the first “gothic rock” single. Bela Lugosi’s Dead. That definition would mean that Goth as we know it started at this point so happy birthday to our lovely scene. I know this is a contentious view keep the comments respectful

There's something very unnerving about seeing Andrew Eldritch without his trademark aviators. PUT THEM BACK ON ALREADY. THIS IS NOT NORMAL AND THE BATS ARE CRYING NOW.

Tristwch Y Fenywod are a trio of talented musicians creating & performing a unique brand of Welsh language gothic/darkwave music akin to the soundtrack of the cult film 'Suspiria', with elements of early Dead Can Dance & This Mortal Coil. Make them famous. 😉 night-school.bandcamp.com/album/tristw...

Aloha, bats! There's a slow but steady trickle of people coming to join us on Bluesky & we're doing our best to follow you all back. Which begs the question; are we all Twitter refugees or have some of you been here for years? Also, what kind of content would you want to see here?
