Kind words of bands/artists I've interviewed

Category: Music

"Hayley is by far the most original interviewer I've come across. She has a knack for asking not the standard questions, but pertinent and unexpected original ones which engage the interviewee more into the conversation - and it is a genuine conversation rather than » Continue Reading

🎃 All Hallows Hundred (Edition 2025) 🎃

Category: Music

Ghosts and goblins, witches and wraiths, vampires, werewolves, and things best left unnamed... They all gather here. If you’re faint of heart or quick to startle, you may wish to turn back now — but if you find beauty in the eerie, the haunted, the strange, then step closer. Born from the ancient festival of Samhain, when the Celts marked the end of the harvest and the approach of winter, Hallowee... » Continue Reading

Goth: Beyond the Music (A Little Essay III)

Category: Music

Subcultural Evolution With Goth: A Little Essay , I wanted to create a trilogy. In the first essay, I focused on the origins of Goth and briefly explored its history, while also sharing some of my own personal experiences within it. The second essay placed full attention on the bands themselves, and between those came an interlude essay centered on ‘dark culture’ as a broader context. Now, with th... » Continue Reading

Goth: Voices of the Underground (A Little Essay II)

Category: Music

The bands I mentioned as worth exploring in Goth: A Little Essay represent only a small fraction of the iceberg. Below is a broader overview of bands and artists who have shaped the goth subculture — from the pioneering sounds of the late 70s, through the 80s and 90s, into the early 2000s, and up to more recent acts that continue to keep the spirit alive. Some fall clearly into goth rock, others » Continue Reading

Electric Essay: A Synth Odyssey

Category: Music

Otherworldly Realms Unlike acoustic instruments, which rely on strings, air, or skin, a synth creates its music from electricity itself. Voltage becomes melody, oscillations become rhythm, and a twist of a knob can open doors to worlds that exist only in dreams, or catapult you into distant galaxies and hidden dimensions. It can whisper secrets of enchanted forests, roar acr » Continue Reading

Dark Culture (A Follow-Up to Goth: A Little Essay)

Category: Music

A Continuation In Goth: A Little Essay , I focused on goth as a music-driven subculture. But goth has never existed in isolation. From the late 80s onward, people began speaking of a wider Dark Culture — a term, especially common in German-speaking countries as “Schwarze Szene,” that described a broader co » Continue Reading

Goth: A Little Essay

Category: Music

A Dive into the Past Goth, at its heart, is a cultural movement born from music. Emerging in the late 1970s and early 1980s, goth grew out of post-punk, carrying the raw intensity of punk but channeling it into something more atmospheric, poetic, and often melancholic. Musically, goth is defined less by rigid rules and more by a shared mood: brooding basslines, shimmering or » Continue Reading

Label vs Independent: What is best?

Category: Music

Every song, every album you love had to find a way to reach you. Sometimes it comes through a record label, sometimes directly from the artist as an independent (self-release). Both paths shape how fans discover, support, and connect with music. But what are the real differences — and what do they mean for you as a fan, and how do they affect the way you experien » Continue Reading
