To have a little Goth night in on my own..

[Lanark2]

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???

Hey..who said we are trending,?!?!!

Nuclear do you mean Germany? I used to go to goth/techno cubs there, it was like the Nuremberg rallies, terrifying!!!

Gone off on a 4AD tangent to Heidi Berry

What?!?!!?!!?!!!!!!!

I was a Newport goth.

In the clubs I recall a lot of the Cramps and Devo, not strictly gothy but better for dancing.

Course we can lanark

(I mean the conformity of 1000s of people doing the same dance move, not suggesting they were actually Nazis)

if we are going industrial what about Einsturzende Neubauten?

Gina X, Great Dark Man.

Oh my god...
My heart is hurting here. You've tapped into my secret goth reservoir.

You bastards. I have The Feels (not Fields, btw...).

Ooooooh fuck an EN fan.. Headcleaner as an entree..

Oh..oh..oh...EN..they have my spine and my root chakra at the edge of a grind wheel...loving it...and you darksideifthemooncup.. Mmm

YES

Mmm der Tod ist ein dandy now... Beauty...

All About Eve were big in the goth scene (where I was anyway), Rosetta Stone and Christian Death were also popular. I love Julianne Regan's beautiful, haunting, melodic voice.

I remember being so moodily pissed off when I was 15 and my parents wouldn't let me go and watch FOTN live as it was a school night. Carl McCoy's deep brooding vocals and exquisite gorgeousness almost overwhelmed my teenage self. I never quite forgave my parents.

Not goth, but a band favoured by many of us in the goth scene were New Model Army.

Goth will always be at the true heart of me. I remember the days of being on the dance floor and flinging my arms in to the air, and spreading my fingers out and pulling my arm back in as if pulling an invisible cord towards me. Oh happy days!

Ooh I am imagining me naked on a back wall at an EN gig now.. This is great!!

Oh man industrial in a real way..but also more beautiful than the industrial in an'industrial' way ...LOVE einstutzende neubauten

I must be away... thank you Lanark for sparking a fabulous trip down memory lane. So good to be amongst my people. 'til next time my loves xx

Nma were close..so 51st state is next..

Till next time?? Aw..turn off well lovely and dream..xxc

I was always narrow eyes at all about eve..was never entirely sure about hippy goth... What's a good overlap??

Lmao, love them all but especially look out for the bee.

If we're doing NMA can I request Get Me Out? I spent much of my youth thinking this when I had to attend anything 'non-goth'.

Halber Mensch!(geh weiter!!)

Love EN.

All About Eve, no.Just no.

nuclear our dance variation was more 2 steps forward 2 steps back because the best nightclub in Leeds had the world's smallest dance floor with a great big pillar in the middle of it.

Aw fuck I loved holding onto those odd middle of the dancefloor pillar s
