“Every man dies – Not every man really lives.” But everyone can, just jump on the Death Rock train.. at least for today. Sharla Somtimes breaks out some of the gritty goth that blurs the lines between punk and goth so seamlessly. With tunes from Scarlet’s Remains, Frank the Baptist, Antiworld.. and more! Today’s podcast takes a semi-focused look at bands from both the heart of the California gift to Europe’s spin on Death Rock. So..Kiddos.. Take a seat.. strap in.. and enjoy the ride!

Back after being kidnapped by the real world last week! Catacombs episode 11 is going be bringing you a mix of old and new! A dash of death rock.. a pinch of bat cave and a whole lot of delicious Gothic tunes, I’ll be baking you up some dark-side cookies to munch on well into the witching hours of night! Featuring Jack off Jill, Rosetta Stone, Universal Theory, Nemesea and More!

I’m baaaaaaaack! Well rested.. and with old club treats for the dark and depraved. One could not just go to a goth club back in the 80’s and early 90’s. The Gothic scene was intertwined with the early Industrial and EBM scene. One would go from hearing Bauhaus to early Minsitry in a space of 10 minutes. To make up for my absence last week.. I present to you.. a small taste of those tunes.
