Re: Let's Share Some Goth
I'm glad you enjoy their music. I like knowing I referred something that someone enjoys. I have all their albums but the first, and don't listen to them enough.
They flutter behind you, your possible pasts.

Re: Let's Share Some Goth
Picked up Lacuna Coil's Karmacode today. After listening to a bunch of tracks off different albums, I headed over to Tower and found that this one was on sale, and I had liked what I heard. So far, I'm pretty pleased with it.

Re: Let's Share Some Goth
I probably should also bring up Green Carnation, who have some pretty darn good albums, including the 60 minute epic "Light of Day, Day of Darkness"
Also, Nightingale is another band to check out. Dan Swano is a pretty good vocallist.

I've probably stated this in other threads, but I think LC's best work was their earlier stuff. It was less polished sounding, but it had more spirit I think. The self-titled EP and In A Reverie are fantastic IMO.

Re: Let's Share Some Goth
Bauhaus
Joy Division
Siouxsie & the Banshees
IMO, there's no such thing as goth before these 3 bands...
Dead Can Dance
Cocteau Twins (Garlands)
Switchblade Symphony
Cure (anything before "Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me")
Ministry (before Al Jourgensen went Industrial - dark lyrics mixed with poppy synth sounds)
NIN
Marilyn Manson
Type O Negative
Sisters Of Mercy
The Cult
Tool / A Perfect Circle - don't know if I would classify them as goth, but they're definitely kick a$$ rock bands, especially if experienced live...

Re: Let's Share Some Goth
I wouldn't really call The Cult Goth exactly either, other than the fact that they just don't seem to catch on. I love their stuff.
WOW, how could I forget Siouxsie? One of my all time absolute favorite bands  Tinderbox is my favorite album from them. I was really excited to see the recent compilation of Siouxsie and the Banshees, but haven't had a chance to pick it up. I have most of the albums already though, so not sure if it is worth it. I like The Creatures too.

Yeah, I listened to the tracks from each album and I do think the early stuff sounded good, but the new album was on sale cheap and a few tracks really got me interested, not the least of which was the cover of Enjoy The Silence.
On a related note, I just bought tix to see NIN w/Bauhaus

Re: Let's Share Some Goth
You won't be disappointed in Bauhaus. I saw them in NYC a few months ago and they were great. Would've been cool if Daniel Ash and David J did a couple of L&R tunes though.
I saw NIN with David Bowie. NIN was great, I was so looking forward to Bowie but he was a disappointment. Wouldn't even throw us a bone with some older stuff.
Last night I saw Echo and The Bunnymen. Great show, small club, sounded awesome.
To add to the Goth list, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, Goth/Not Goth perhaps?

Re: Let's Share Some Goth
I'd call Thrill Kill Kult goth enough
Anyone ever listen to Killing Joke? I liked them long ago, but haven't heard any of their stuff since the early 90s.

Re: Let's Share Some Goth
Ah Killing Joke, Eighties is one of my favorite songs. I saw them many years ago as well.
Thrill Kill opened for Ministry recently and that was a great show as well.

Re: Let's Share Some Goth
I know they hate being called goth but the sisters of mercy were for a long time one of my favorite bands (even have a merciful release tattoo). Being released in the 80's some of their stuff is starting to sound a bit dated but floodland is still a classic album. Sisters are still around, I saw them play in detroit a few months ago but the sound sucked so that kind of blew.
Type O's bloody kisses disc is also some goth at it's finest.
Not really goth but if you like female fronted goth you should really check out The Cranes - Wings of Joy. Good stuff.
