  • Release the Bats!!

    As an American who dressed the part and went to Goth clubs in LA (Helter Skelter, Perversion, Bar Sinister etc) I can say these guys absolutely get it right! Their choices both from my era and the newer stuff that shows its influence are spot on. I especially love hearing European bands that I was previously unfamiliar with. If you have a love for or even a passing curiosity about the music of the night I highly recommend this podcast

  • Reminds me of listening to goth, industrial, post punk etc back in the day on public radio, when a couple of hours a week were dedicated to the darker side of alternative. A lot of good songs, obscure and well known with djs who are knowledgeable about the bands and songs they play. Songs with information and opinions in between. 5 episodes in and love it!

Q: Do you guys agree? And if so, what song would be the best proof of that?
