What does 30 euros get you these days? Well in this case it gets you a 4CD set of Gothic-Industrial from in partnership with Vampirefreaks.com

In the booklet which comes with the box set, Jet, founder of Vampirefreaks.com states that:

"In the past few years we have seen the gothic/industrial scene slowly declining in popularity. Our club nights are closing down and disappearing, industrial CD sales are going down ... our future as a community has really looked bleak at times."

Well listening to this set of CD's all I can say is thank Fxxk for that.

The Horrors:
She is the New Thing

I really enjoy organ driven . The latest single plods along like an advancing phalanx of the un-dead, accompanied by this rather natty video.

Pure genius? Maybe not, but at least something interesting is coming out of the wider Indie scene.

Leading bass line, fantastic tribal drum patterns, and that guitar refrain! Add some more eyeliner and fishnet and it would be

About Evilpoppy

Saturday 05 May 2007 at 3:23 pm

I am a fairly cheery person in my early 30's from the UK who enjoys going out and seeing great bands that are doing something glam, creative and different. I feel just as comfortable in the indie scene as the 'goth' scene.

At home I listen to a range of music swinging from trad-folk through post-punk to dub-step. I don't listen to Metal, it is to music what technical drawing is to painting. I have a 50 hour a week job and certainly do not have an alternative lifestyle. If you want one of them try being a nun.

I like dressing up quite a bit, especially putting outifts together from charity shops (thrift stores), and modifying existing clothing.

You might also find me playing Team Fortress 2 on Steam from time to time.

Dead Machines' Revolution

The best thing to come out of Bratislava, The return with a new album, and an evolved sound. Their last album nestled safely between the caring arms of , and , and was in a word: Fantastic. Does follow in its footsteps?
