Goths should not have beards. That is just wrong!

― kate (kate), Monday, 27 October 2003 12:25 (twenty-three years ago)

Awwwww! Don't they all look so young now!

"Goths should not have beards. That is just wrong!"

Long spiky sideburns and tiny goatees are OK 'though, surely?

― Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Monday, 27 October 2003 12:27 (twenty-three years ago)

I was talking about March Violets, and that was a full-on beard. Not acceptible!

Ohmigod, I had *forgotten* that Bernard Sumner was once so cute!

nearly all of the adverts pics are of gaye!

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 27 October 2003 12:35 (twenty-three years ago)

Wow this is awesome. The more obscure stuff takes me back...The Passions, ACR, Delta 5, Quando Quango, Spizz..... The Plan K page is awesome (Altered Images!!)

weird shit on the darling buds page - several photos of andrea d b's feet!! Best one so far = the cab volt page.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 27 October 2003 13:39 (twenty-three years ago)

I've seen this page, and it's lovely. It always confounded me how you can't right-click on a picture (ie to save it) without closing the window. Does anybody know how a boy could save these?

― Sonny A. (Keiko), Monday, 27 October 2003 15:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Try doing it in Internet Explorer (as opposed to, say, Netscape).

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 27 October 2003 15:50 (twenty-three years ago)

nb that there is a page of killing joke pics alex.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 27 October 2003 15:57 (twenty-three years ago)

+! +! +!
although in what world this constitutes "new wave"????

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:11 (twenty-three years ago)

Seen'em, Pashmina, thanks.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 27 October 2003 16:23 (twenty-three years ago)

Wow, the Delta 5 are like, hot

― Ferg (Ferg), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:04 (twenty-three years ago)

this site kicks my ass two ways to Sandusky, and one of them is totally the scenic route. great help for my Phil Oakey Halloween costume.

― Felcher (Felcher), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:09 (twenty-three years ago)

There's a pretty high chance that I'll be looking like Phil Oakey on Halloween too, and for the next four years at least

― Ferg (Ferg), Monday, 27 October 2003 20:10 (twenty-three years ago)

thanks norman!

and oh yeah, def. check out the earliest depeche mode pictures (from 1981) -- and tell me that David Gahan doesn't look like either Pee Wee Herman or Martin Short as Ed Grimly!

i'd love to hear a depeche mode cover of "connect the dots"

― Felcher (Felcher), Monday, 27 October 2003 21:06 (twenty-three years ago)

although the speak and spell version of "photographic" sounds pretty close

― Felcher (Felcher), Monday, 27 October 2003 21:07 (twenty-three years ago)

Playing w/google, I found a couple of related-ish sites:

rockin' rena's women of '70's punk as well as the "usual suspects" you might expect to find (ie siouxsie, the slits, gaye advert) lotsa great & k-obscure female punkers & proto-indie-ists - judy evans from girls at our best (who ruled!) Beki Bondage! (rather unfairly lumped in as "oi!") Kleenex! Destroy all monsters!! etc!

archive of pics by Phil Franks, mainly of the early'70's brit underground music scene - hawkwind! pink fairies! quintesscence! edgar broughton! gong! frendz magazine! c/w remininscences. This is great!

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 27 October 2003 21:14 (twenty-three years ago)

the speak and spell version of photographic is my favourite depeche mode rekkid.

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Monday, 27 October 2003 21:23 (twenty-three years ago)

I really did not need to see Peter Murphy wearing so little:

Fig. 1
Fig. 2

Lovely site, though.

Andrew Eldritch without sunglasses?!? Clearly, this photo was taken before they were surgically affixed in 1985...

― Sean Thomas (sgthomas), Tuesday, 28 October 2003 01:23 (twenty-three years ago)

Gosh, that's Eldritch?!?!?! Are you sure that's not the keyboard playing bloke from Pink Floyd?!?!?!

― Old Fart!!! (oldfart_sd), Tuesday, 28 October 2003 14:34 (twenty-three years ago)

Truly, if ever there was an argument to keep one's sunglasses ON, that photo is surely defines it.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Tuesday, 28 October 2003 14:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Whay can't any of the contestants on Pop Idol or Fame Academy look this?!?!?!?!

http://www.newwavephotos.com/Specials1/02590Specials.jpg
