Who's playing guitar on "Tenant?" John McGeoch? It's a much more pronounced guitar part than on the studio version, very Keith Levene and great.

Virgin Prunes, "Pagan Lovesong (there are a bunch of other Prunes vids on youtube as well)

Telephonething (Telephonething), Sunday, 7 May 2006 03:41 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, I was trying to figure out who is under the hat -- I'd guess McGeoch just because it's so good!

Sisters of Mercy:

"This Corrosion" on TOTP -- new entry at number 13!

And I leave you for now with Soft Cell and Clint Ruin tearing up Suicide's "Ghost Rider" on UK TV in 1983.

Art Of Noise "Beatbox"
Art Of Noise "Close (To The Edit)"

DOQQUN (donut), Sunday, 7 May 2006 05:52 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, and just to be foppish about it all

Dead Or Alive "Something In My House"

DOQQUN (donut), Sunday, 7 May 2006 06:00 (nineteen years ago)

I'm being pedantic, but DAF DOS isn't DAF -- the real DAF reunited recently.

Colin Meeder (Mert), Sunday, 7 May 2006 15:32 (nineteen years ago)

haha, well I went beyond by including any form of DAF here in the first place.

DOQQUN (donut), Sunday, 7 May 2006 17:44 (nineteen years ago)

I think it just shows how flexible the term Goth has become... EBM/industrial? Punk with darker make-up? Atmospheric rock with echo and more churning drones? Drug taking feedbackmongers? Tons of bands outside these sounds wear dark clothes and shades as it is.

DOQQUN (donut), Sunday, 7 May 2006 17:46 (nineteen years ago)

:D

Curt1s St3ph3ns, Sunday, 7 May 2006 19:16 (nineteen years ago)

That version of "Ghost Rider" is insane. I wonder how long they kept playing once the show went off the air?

Since we're reaching into EBM on this thread,

Front Line Assembly, "Mindphaser"

Wumpscut, "Die In Winter"

Malice Mizer are technically a Visual-kei band, but I don't think you'll find Goth imagery piled on much more heavily anywhere:

Ned, that "Circle" video just made me go and buy the new Nocturne DVD off Ebay.

Jay Vee's Return (Manon_69), Sunday, 7 May 2006 23:44 (nineteen years ago)

Compilation of various late ‘80s/early ‘90s Sisters of Mercy MTV interviews; hilarious OTT descriptions of the music; Eldritch being contemptuous of America etc

A fine decision.

I only wish there were more random obscurities like Play Dead or something like that.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 9 May 2006 13:37 (nineteen years ago)

Play Dead? Ah, Banbury's finest...

flowersdie (flowersdie), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 09:49 (nineteen years ago)

I never realized how much Peter Murphy looked like Don Knotts until I saw that "Judgement is the Mirror" video

Curt1s St3ph3ns, Thursday, 11 May 2006 17:15 (nineteen years ago)

That Nina Hagen & Apocolyptica clip is beyond fabulous. Thanks!

Why couldn't Rammstein have had her guest on the last disc instead of Charlene Spiteri?

Soukesian, Thursday, 11 May 2006 17:34 (nineteen years ago)

She also did that song as a live vocal/dubbed band thing on a German tv special a couple of years ago -- it was incredible (but not on youtube). Nina pulled no goofy faces and sang the song HARD -- my wife was stunned and has been a Hagen obsessive since.

Colin Meeder (Mert), Thursday, 11 May 2006 17:57 (nineteen years ago)

Talking of German Goths, Unheilige, seen here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNMghQnq6q4&search=unheilig

. . have released a Goth christmas album 'Frohes Fest'. Sadly, this video isn't from that disc, but it does showcase the singer's Nosferatu impression.

Soukesian, Thursday, 11 May 2006 18:45 (nineteen years ago)

That "Tainted Love" video is the most depressing and terrifying thing I've seen in a long time.

Curt1s St3ph3ns, Tuesday, 16 May 2006 19:12 (nineteen years ago)

That was the point.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 16 May 2006 19:14 (nineteen years ago)

it's the best "goth" video ever made IMHO.

It's also the last thing I'd recommend showing or bringing to a party.

DOQQUN (donut), Tuesday, 16 May 2006 23:13 (nineteen years ago)

That said, in that rare mood when it's appropriate to watch it, it's essential viewing. The "Tainted Love" video is probably part of the reason I'm, er, very cautious.

DOQQUN (donut), Tuesday, 16 May 2006 23:17 (nineteen years ago)

Yes, always have safe grapes. You don't know where those other hands have been.
