pretty tough question but to be at the final jews shows, in the subterranean belly of tennessee, seems pretty damn poetic, well either that or nation of ulysses

bands that drank a lot and fell in love a lot and made a mess a lot and self-mythologized a lot

There's a real death rattle going on for indie rock or whatever we're calling the kids who play guitars. So self-serious, so self-respecting, so self-important. Dour and dreary. Image conscious and with so much inhibition. Where is our Tom Waits or Lucinda Williams or Silver Jews or Smog or...? I mean, fuck. Even the National would kill a bottle or two of sauvignon blanc on stage. We deserve a better class of bands. We deserve the Replacements getting shitfaced and lamenting (stammering?) mid-song about losing a girl's number again or trashing David Bowie's dressing room. Or, y'know...Being blackout on SNL

"gothic" whatever that means

Albums Chelsea Wolfe - Unknown Rooms (Flatlands, Virginia Woolf Underwater) Chelsea Wolfe - Pain is Beauty PJ Harvey - Rid of Me (legit got jump scares when I first listened...) Reverend Kristin Michael Hayter - Saved! Julee Cruise - Floating Into the Night (maybe not typically seen as creepy or gothic, but I think there's a bit of those...might be conflating "strong atmosphere" with "strong atmosphere which is specifically <gothic>", idk) Nicole Dollanganger - Natural Born Losers (Poacher's Pride, White Trashing, In the Land, You're so Cool) Elysian Blaze - Levitating the Carnal; Beneath Silent Faces (think I should make a separate post for this ... not spoken about enough imo) Songs Poppy Jean Crawford - Glamorous Kate Bush - Waking the Witch; Hounds of Love; Under Ice (as above ... atmospheric ... Is it dark and gothic? To me, sort of) Marissa Nadler - Janie in Love; Divers of the Dust Emily Jane White - Behind the Glass Bat for Lashes - What's a Girl to Do?
