The pulse of darkwave and post-punk is alive and beating harder than ever. What once echoed through smoke-filled clubs in Berlin and underground venues in London now floods playlists, festivals, and even TikTok feeds.

Twin Tribes The Texas-based duo has become one of the defining acts of the modern darkwave...

Here are some of my favourite choices playing this year: *Schwarzer Engel. Powerful rocking Goth.*Pysclon Nine.Industrial Goth.                          *Extize. Industrial Goth.   *The Bellweather Syndicate. Cross Christian Death and...

Back in the 80's punk opened the doors to a more artsy version of itself known as Goth Rock and Death...

So today was totally a Yin/Yang. Work was just insane,everyone has been pushed to there limits because of all the B.S yesterday,it just sucked. I did my best to be polite and kind to everyone I interacted with that day : ) I brought my A-game as always. The breaking point was this ONE customer who supposedly saw someone "cut" in line (uh..dude there IS no line anymore) and threatened us,we called a manager and got a good laugh about it later (people are CRAZY). My reward was going to see a...

Who remembers the SCREAMING DEAD ?...Totally atypical, this legendary Horror Punk Rock band with an energic sound and with a macabre imagery managed to surround the british scene from the early 80's with its dreadful shadow , leaving indelebile memories in many people's mind.A few years ago, by popular demand, they suddenly resurrected a truly unexpected way, but sadly, the experience of this obscure and ephemeral reformation seems to be over, nowadays...In late february 1999, a few days...
