I've had that very same set Treb has just purchased for about ten years and i'm yet to watch it. Only paid a tenner for it which is probably similar to what Treb's cost. I saw the pilot three hour thing, loved it and never bothered with the rest. |

It gets so much better after the pilot mini-series! It’s due a rewatch for me, but it’ll have to be after I’ve educated myself in other topics haha. It’s currently on BBC iPlayer.

An outbreak of sex and violence. And it's got Barbara Steele and Lynn Lowry in so all is well.

Got this the other day. When i saw it i felt i owed it to my inner teenage Goth. download (39).jpeg Haven't actually got round to reading much but had a flick through, the main focus seems to be on Bauhaus, The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees with a side dose of The Mission and Sisters of mercy. Which is fine up to a point. Other bands appear but Nephilim are sidelined and there is no article on early Cult stuff which i would have thought would be mandatory. Its ok but looked more impressive than it turned out to be. Also no Damned, and yes i know they were more punk but they definitely had a goth phase. I was kind of a second generation Goth, it was about 86 onwards so i'd missed the heyday but there was enough still going on to fuel the fire. Of most interest though is that it has a listing of 100 essential goth songs, a lot of them i've never even heard. It looks like they've basically taken one song from each band, so it's quite interesting as a pointer to other bands i am not familiar with. I was aware of about 40ish bands listed. I've spent the night listening to the first 20 songs listed and have liked quite a few, so i'm gonna go through the list bit by bit and indulge in a trip back to vibes of my misspent youth.
