Changed my mind again and chose another band that has never been polled on ILM. This will close out this series and the year, its been fun.

I only really know Fetisch but I love it so I'll give it a vote. If I'm wrong and another album is better then hopefully the poll will tell me.

Tocsin might just beat Fetisch for me. I saw Anja Huwe a few weeks ago, which I was very pleased about. I bought that Early Singles compilation at the gig. I already had the orig Incubus Succubus 12" but it was good to get the other early single and the compilation tracks

Wish they'd do a new CD re-release of Viva

(Devils I don't think I've ever heard?)

I see what you mean as it's not on streaming, will have to find a way to hear it.

It took me years to get my hands on Viva and Devils, which turned out to be very forgettable. I'll vote for Tocsin, their one album I had in high school - forever ingrained in my mind.

Viva I got off Soulseek and I quite like, although it is not in the same league as Fetisch or Tocsin

This singles comp is pretty good:

Finally gave that early singles a spin (got the mini boxset). I don’t think anyone has defined the archetypal sound of a genre as much as these guys

I love the debut and the singles comp is pretty good. Tocsin is a masterpiece tho, one of the best albums in this Goth era.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Nice and correct results.

What to do for the next blocks?

Bee OK, Thursday, 18 December 2025 03:26 (four months ago)

Oh I missed this poll. Give another vote to Fetisch. It's so raw and rocks hard.
They got more polished with each album, with Devils ending up sounding like 80's Heart or something.
