45 Grave is one of the more interesting bands associated with deathrock and one that has released some amazing material over the years. Their sound has elements of many different genres and blends them into a very unique sound. They're often compared to Christian Death in style, but are further from that sound than one would be led to believe. On t…

That's right! The time has come for a long overdue discussion about Joy Division. While not a gothic band there is no denying the influence the group had on the emerging goth music scene.

This week we're taking a look at a lesser known band called Rosetta Stone.

Does their work hold up as well as class…
