Your problem, my dear, was relying on *Strawberrrys*, that haven
of mall-trash pop, to supply you with anything of musical value.
Last Summer SGWbM was still only availalbe as an import in the U.S., which
would make it slightly out of Strawberrys sphere of consciousness.
Next time you are in Boston, try Newberry Comics (cd store) first.
Large chain stores are (usually) a waste of time anyway...music
for the masses, so to speak.

I'll be in L.A. for a couple of weeks in December, and I have a few questions:

Is the goth club Helter Skelter still open?  Just so I don't waste too much
time running around looking for record stores, etc.:  what are some good
places that have a good selection of goth music, etc.?  Thanks.

I would fill in the first blank with "strewn with time's dead". I don't have
the CD here, but i've heard it enough to be fairly confident...=)

Also....I always thought it was "gloom" not "bloom"...but "bloom" fits better
with the "flowers" reference...

Actually your quite a way behind - about 2 weeks ago Wayne said that basically
Masque was crap and they were going back to the old stuff. This is in complete
contradiction to what he said when Masque came out of course. I cant remember
when that was, but it seems a l..o..n..g time ago. How come you've only just

Date: Fri, 20 Nov 1992 05:48:59 GMT

Hi!  I certainly hope this isn't going to stir up a lot of
controversy (yes, I know there's more to goth than music!), but
along with goth, one of my biggest hobbies is collecting music.  
Therefore, I thought that, since there's a lot of goth music
out there that one doesn't just hear every day on the radio
(surprise!), some of it excellent and some of it crap, perhaps we
should have everyone post a list of their ten favorite albums
so that maybe we can all discover something new...
Since I'm suggesting it, I'll go first to get the ball rolling
(I'll probably post an updated list later if the idea goes over
well, since things are bound to escape me doing it off the top
of my head like this...).

Anyway, here it goes...

 1. The Damned - "The Black Album" 
 2. The Sisters of Mercy - "Enter the Sisters" (bootleg)
 3. Gene Loves Jezebel - "Immigrant"
 4. Joy Division - "Closer"
 5. Bauhaus - "Burning From the Inside"
 6. Christian Death - "The Scriptures"
 7. Dead Can Dance - "A Passage In Time"
 8. The Cure - "Pornography"
 9. The Pixies - "Doolittle"
10. Fields of the Nephlim - "Dawnrazor"

Where do you find satanism in the music you mentioned?  I
listen to it, I'm not a satanist...  I have friends who listen
to it... they're not satanists...
If you read the linear notes to Christian Death's _The
Scriptures_, there is even a warning against the practice of
black magic...
I can certainly see how someone who considers themself a
satanist might be attracted to goth, but don't make the
generalization that goths are satanists.

Re:  Your request for a "list" of the meanings of the various cards in the
Tarot deck ....

The first and most obvious problem with that request is that the Tarot cards
do not have set "meanings".  Their location within the layout can influence
how they're interpreted, as can, in fact, the specific layout you use.

My suggestion would depend on your purpose.  If you're truly interested in
learning the Tarot, find a good reference book or two.  They're not all
that difficult to locate.  If you're just interested in playing, perhaps
wanting to create a silly "fortune telling" program that no one is going to
take seriously anyway, then don't bother trying for "realism".  Better yet, 
drop the whole idea.

WARNING!!!  Major spoilers contained within!






	I have to agree that I was also quite dissapointed, not
only with the actual film making itself, but with the script as
a whole.  It was advertised as "Bram Stoker's Dracula", and
said to be the first film accurate to the book, but if it was,
they read a different book than I did...
	The original book contained more than enough plot
twists to make an interesting two hour movie without many of
the things that were added.  For example, what was all of this
about Mina being Dracula's love reincarnated?  Sounds like
someone's been watching too much "Dark Shadows"...  Not a bad
thing necessarily, but let's be reasonable...  A film should
simply not be called "Dracula" if it's not going to have a plot
line at least remotely similar to Bram Stoker's book (I suppose
this one was REMOTELY similar, but not similar enough).  Van
Helsing, instead of being portrayed as a serious scientist, is
shown as a joke.  The role of Renfield, quite important in the
book, is downplayed in the movie to the point to which you
almost have to wonder why they even left him in as a character
-- he's good for no more than the shock value of someone who
eats insects.  I could go on for quite some time listing the
problems of the film, but what would be the point?
	I'm not saying that the film is necessarily all bad,
but I certainly went in expecting a lot more from it.  If you
go to look at all the neat gothic costumes and scenery, you
certainly won't be disappointed.  If you're looking for a film
that gives a good accurate version of the story in the book, it
looks like you're in for a longer wait.

They are good, true, but some of the guitar breaks sound very rock like, and
wouldn't need much producing to push them into the main rock stream.

I was disappointed to see on the sleeve notes that it was made at "The hit
factory", (for those of you who don't know that's the PWL stable who
turned out artists such as Kylie, Jason Donovan, Bananarama and Rick Astley)
they aren't the first, that one-legged horse The Danse Society sold their
soul there too and lost the few goth fans they had left :*(

Its still worth a buy though!

Sorry to post this here, but this has been bugging me a lot.  I was

so I don't dream" in it.  It reminded me of a song that had the line "I don't 
sleep, so I don't dream, so I don't wake up frightened", and I can't for
the life of me think of the name of the song or the group... or even the
rest of the song.  If anyone can tell me the name of the song or group that
used that line, could you e-mail me what it is?  I'd greatly appreciate it

This is the first CD with Rozz only, and it also features the Deathwish EP as
extra tracks. I would sincerely recommend that you buy any XD you can get your 
hands on, though I think you would appreciate the progression if you bought them in
sequence.
ie Buy the following in some kind of Similar order:

Rozz/Valor
	Catastrophe Ballet
	Ashes
	Anthology of Bootlegs (LIVE)
	Decomposition of Violets(LIVE)
Valor
	Past Present and Future(compilation of early EP's)
	Atrocities
	The Scriptures
	Sex and Drugs and Jesus Christ
	The Heretics Alive (live LP)
	All the Love/All the Hate
	Insanus Ultio Produitio Misericordiaque (Demos)
	Jesus Points the Bone at You (Singles collection)
Rozz
	The Iron Mask
Rozz(w/ Shadow Project)
	Shadow Project
	(some 2nd LP I can't remember the name of)

SO that's about it. Any advice wanted all you have to do is ask.
I love this band. I saw Valors Christian Death in the Marquee 
last June and it was great. 
What else can I say really.

You happened to pick some of the least gothic albums from all of these
artists...

First of all, Burning from the Inside is basically a pop album.  It
was recorded when Peter Murphy was out with mono, and consequently has
very little of his heroine induced influence on it.  A better gothic
Bauhaus album would be either Press the Eject and Give me the Tape or
In The Flat Field.  

The Dead Can Dance album you recommended is also a shoddy pick in my
mind.  If it is a greatest hits album, trash it, burn it, stomp up and
down on it... All Greatest hits albums are evil and so is this one.
Aion is an excellent album, and so is the Spleen and Ideal, and The
Serpent's Egg.  I don't know that you can call any one of them better
than the other, but they certainly aren't that gothic.  Unless you
consider things in unknown languages gothic by the mere fact that you
don't know what language they are in.

Third your list also lacks a significant number of true gothics such
as Diamanda Galas.  That is one Gothic woman...  Please come back some
day when you have a more insightful list to offer to the world.

 Or was that _Greed_ or _Holy_Money_?  At the store I work at, we have
  a CD copy of _Children_of_God_ for $14.49.    Straight from Caroline.

  And we ordered it only a couple of months ago.  So unless anything
  happened between now and then (which I doubt), it's still available
  domestically.  If any store who deals with Caroline tells you differently,
  they're just too lazy to check.

                                                             K!z!K
