I have just been reminded of how much 'me' some of that dark 80s Goth stuff is, and my friends are being boring. AIBU to get wine (not blue nun or Liebfraumilch sadly) and listen to only Cure, Mission, Nephilim, and Mary Chain all night???

Goths should always take ages to get together..it has to be a story of overcoming resistance and passion making you and the respect/shag the arse off me dynamic coupled with a deep and unfathomable soul on either side that is tempted but never wavers from its true path

It's one of the tragedies of youth that you never realise how beautiful you are. You can only see it in retrospect.

Beautiful words! Made me cry a little. I may have had too much wine Wine

I got really excited when I saw Nephilim.

Are we talking Fields of the Nephilim, or Carl McCoys after-project Nefilim?

Both fantastic, but Nefilim's album Zoon really warms my cockles.
