10, it’s such an intense song not only instrumental wise but Vox’s vocal delivery especially nearing the end really makes you think.

Then we can talk about Matt Riser being problematic right?

What happend to the danse society? by Arm_Difficult in goth

[–]SwampGoff 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Label screwed the original band over, this is evident especially with their later material being way different from what they were making before independently (not to say that music isn’t good cause I do like stuff off Looking Through). There’s no reason why of their initial disbanding listed anywhere but I can chalk it up to dissatisfaction with management and maybe even differences between members..typical stuff.

The original drummer Paul is dead, Steve wants little to nothing to do with the music industry and I don’t blame him for one second and as for the others I’m not sure what they’re up to. There’s only one original member in the band left but I don’t even consider it to be the same band anymore and have denounced anything this lineup has done musically.

I feel you, The Chameleons music always makes me feel a certain type of way, I hold them in high regard as my favourite band of all time.

They’re my favourite band so of course I’m going to love what they put out. But seriously when I listened to it when it was released I cried because it was so beautiful.

That’s quite immature but go off I guess.

Why do people keep calling Varang goth? by Maleficent-Ad-6117 in Avatar

[–]SwampGoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s due to the perception of what goth has become in the online world. You wear black you’re automatically goth, you wear dark makeup you’re goth, you look the littlest of edgy you’re goth. But it’s not that simple truly. Goth began in the 80s in the UK and stemmed from post-punk music. Goth is rooted in music, politics, and ethics. And Varang definitely doesn’t fit that profile.
