Christian Death - The Blue Hour (feat. R. Williams)
The best American dark band: pathos, lyricism, theatricality, obscenity, occultism.
In comparison, the Sisters of Mercy were making pop AHAH
Oh, by the way, the Virgin Prunes, even though they hinted a lot at macabre theatricality, I find them more caught up in the clichés of the genre, both with their very first noisy dark punk works and with "If I die, I die."
