    Catacombs Ep 7

    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. Ministry - Land of Rape and Honey Lead into Gold - Faster than Light Die Warzau - Land of the Free Moev - Crucify Me Camouflage - The Great Commandment Sisters of Mercy - This Corrosion Friends of Carlotta - Fingerfoc NFD - Caged Nitzer Ebb - The Book Meat Beat Manifesto - Genocide Crunch o Matic - Antiplastik A Split Second - Rigor Mortis Brainclaw - Dead Monsters Contagion - Scratch Chassalla - Black Nylons Die Form - Telemat Bigod 20 - Carpe Diem Revolting Cocks - No Devotion
