Dark/Alternative Music
Foe, you might be interested in this compilation album on Bandcamp - has some decent stuff on it (& some not so good):-https://coldtransmissionmusic.bandcam...
Something new from The Human League ;-)Cult Classics by More Ephemerol - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RSF6VGF...
Couple more newish ones - including new track from Sonsombre which I find v amusing, yeh probably just me, love the music but I really can't take the vocals seriously.Lights Out by Sonsombre - https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=y...
The Happening by Kill Shelter ft. Killjoi - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tBmNiIK...

Has Anyone Really Been Far Even as Decided to Use Even Go Want to do Look More Like?
I like the way it states that "all designs are unofficial". I wonder if anyone has bought one. I assume you've told your Mrs. that you want one for Christmas, Sera?Edit - and you have to wash it inside out, presumably so that you don't spoil the print.
Couple of old tunes:-Mascara Osiris by Still Patient? - https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=y...
Walking In Demimondes by Love Like Blood - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zYlpdKv...
Oh dear! - https://www.petermurphy.info/post/189...But gives me an excuse to post the track in question - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UrfFHzq...

Cracking album, but who's paying £100 for a Peter Murphy action figure... And why do i want one so much,,,
$100 not £100!! Still rather expensive for a pointless figurine. They've done lots of Nick Cave one's too, Sera, but they're sold out - https://plasticgod.com/collections/ni...
Couple of coldwave/darkwave tracks from the newish SYZYGYX (nope, no idea how that's pronounced) album "Fading Bodies":-Ultra Doll - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wLAYuyA...
Die Like A Rockstar - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IxWkWWx...
Edit: pronounced siz-eh-jix apparently. "Syzygy is a space term for the alignment of celestial objects, to Luna and Josh that means their music coming together, the X is the unknown." Oh dear.
Another newish coldwave/darkwave track, album out next year:-Graveyard Orbit by DILK - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UoJL4pJ...
Hope the handful of forummers that read this thread survive Christmas....... X - big kiss from me to you!https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CA9TsaK...

S'pose this one's kind of appropriate too, just an excuse for some SoM - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGTdeh5...
Christmas wishes to you too Helen. I always read this thread and do listen to many of your links. I never know what constitutes "dark" but the debut album from local lad Fenn Wilson fits my definition.https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ghost-Heroin...
I will be nominating a track on the Cream of 2019 thread. He's almost rock royalty in Aussie terms, the son of the late (and much missed) bluesman Chris Wilson and indie-folk singer/songwriter Sarah Carroll (who also released an album this year and may also get a nomination from me).

I'll check out your link later, listening to something else just now. All contributions welcome.......I just feel responsible for this thread 'cos I brought it over from Amazon and started it off again, but it was nothing to do with me originally!
Hmmmm....... unfortunately this isn't available to buy in the UK - https://www.bigelowchemists.com/let-i...

Maybe that'll teach her to tone it down a bit - but I doubt it!
Helen, I didn't know where else to put this. I thought you might be interested, though you probably know about it anyway.https://www.crowdjustice.com/case/wil...

No, not seen that, never heard of Clashindarroch Forest, I'm not familiar with Aberdeenshire. Lots of wind farms all over the place up here up on the moorland.
A friend here in the village used to have a camera trap in her garden & captured an image of a wildcat - she sent it off to be verified.

Sweet man. That first clip would have Tech joining his fan club!
nah, i'd be too busy dissing his band!he is good copy, mind, but first couple of albums aside, i'm not a fan - the only cure record i ever owned was a 12" promo ('meathook/grinding halt'), which i sold for a (then) astronomical £15.
