Ok, so im kinda an old school Goth, (among other things) As such I love listening to a certain band... One that I would seriously advise everyone to listen to at least once... Especially the song "Even angels fall" It is one of my all time favourite songs.

BTW here are the lyrics to the abovementioned song
Sorrow sings
her kisses in silence
and adjusts the blinds to keep the light
from mocking everything I feel
She dances slowly
a silhouette upon the curtains
but her eyes seem to cry
only empty tears
I beg for comfort with inadequate verse
it meant so much to me...and so little to her
and I am sinking into a mountain of self pity
why can't I simply disregard all the things I feel?

"where is my angel when I need him most?"
"tell me now where did he go?"

"Goth?"
Are they the ones who dress in all black?

        One of the better bumper stickers I've seen in recent years years said Corporate Goth:  Because "nice boots" are expensive.

And Also Lyrics to another great song. "Heaven's Gaze"

Shades of feelings my heart denies
bathing in shadows hidden in the eyes of lies
my glowing future now these embers burn
uncanny restlessness- but ask me what I've
learned...

prey insect visions swarm about my head
each haunted thought, and each prying wedge
slice ripping pieces and shredding pages of life
if this is real- well it feels like hell! yes it feels
like Hell!

gods and angels and devils smile
stare into our crying eyes
fire and anger and hate beguile
but look into your heart tonight.

We disregard the cold pedestrian grey
where level playing fields weren't meant for us
to play
as riddled failings salvation turns away
if this is real- well it feels like hell! yes it feels
like Hell!

gods and angels and devils smile
look into our crying eyes
fire and anger and hate beguile
but look into your heart tonight.

gods and angels and devils smile
stare into our crying eyes
fire and anger and hate beguile
but look into your heart tonight.

Y'know as much as I like Rogue and his crew ( *rimshot* );  I'd never consider them old school.  I refuse to call any band which formed after I had already gone through my first enlistment (ie early 90s) as old school.

Other than that;  I agree on them being a band to check out.  Hell,  any band that has fans who will take the time to make a LEGO music video of one of their songs can't be bad at all.

Lego minifig Rogue rules :-)

We were cheering like maniacs when their single "Sophia" actually DEBUTED at #1 on the Billboard Dance Single chart back in 2006.

No, they are the ones who sacked Rome. :)  

Did you read the article in Gothic Beauty about The Cruxshadows in China?   Oh!!! And they are of course one of the reasons to do Dragon*Con!   I love them although Rogue's attitude and seriousnes about all things "Goth" can grate on my nerves.

i have a couple of Bauhaus songs on my profile, along with a wide variety of stuff.  Then again back in my youth ~insert deep heartfelt sigh here~ i was a little goth punk.  Now my 13 year old is getting into goth  ~insert even longer sigh~ and loves that she can raid my closet and music.  Guess even though i grew up and conformed to a degree, i still wear my black and red goth looking clothes.  Fits in well with my job too... i work at a cemetery.  ;-)

Annnnyway, so i wont look at you funny for mentioning Bauhaus or any other band.

ahhhhhh and lucious, you are not old darlin!  lol  umm and isn't dark and scary a GOOD exciting thing???

I have a 3' by 4' picture of Jim Morrison on my living room wall (you can see it in my profile pics)... And I also listen to Jim Croce, The Who, Gordon Lightfoot, among others... I love music of almost all types. :P
