@zzz Since I am a person from the postpunk/punk/goth era, tell me a few bands you like so far and I'll suggest some more!
@zzz Okay, give me a few minutes to churn through my files.
@zzz See if any of these interest you, in most cases, I can then suggest more in that genre:
Richard Hell & the Voidoids
Magazine
Legendary Pink Dots (try Any Day Now or The Maria Dimension)
The Horrors early stuff
Dalis Car
80's & 90's deathrock & goth rock like Christian Death, Dreadful Shadows, Merry Thoughts, Sisters of Mercy, The Mission (UK)
Faith & The Muse
Jesus & Mary Chain
Lords of the New Church
Love and Rockets
(1/2)
@zzz (2/2)
Nick Cave
Pere Ubu
Siouxsie & the Banshees
Sonsombre
Specimen
UK Decay
If industrial then Tear Garden
Ethereal? Like Black Tape for a Blue Girl?
Shoegaze?
Darkwave?
@zzz Oh good, then I can suggest bunches more. Catherine Wheel, Hypatia Lake, wumpscut, Deine Lakaien, De/Vision just for starters.
@zzz You might also try Helium Vola or Qntal and see what you think.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll dig through the ones I don't recognise and report back!
@zzz Sounds good!
@zzz Did you ever turn up any new music from the suggestions?
A bit actually. It might not look like it from my recent music posts but I did surface stuff. Some felt a bit more 80s goth than I was specifically looking for but I enjoyed everything I looked up.
@deadrose
Joy Division
Killing Joke
Bauhaus
Kino
Television
Martin Dupont
There are newer bands like Interpol, Actors, and Drab Majesty
