Should put /dark/ in the subject field m8
how long has /dark/ been a thing? this needs to continue
its been coming and going in cycles for the last few years. this cycle has been more productive than most, iirc the last one died cause it was nothing but yt link spam from one dude with no discussion
Post severely underrated industrial albums.

>Genesis P. Orridge & Skinny Puppy
>I've almost never seen it talked about
Im a new-fag how joined Sup Forums a little over a year ago.
This is probably my favorite of all the generals on Sup Forums.
>the last one died cause it was nothing but yt link spam from one dude with no discussion
Most of the threads are like this. A few weeks ago a few threads hit bump limit though.
All industrial except maybe SPK is underrated on Sup Forums
Really? I rarely see SPK get mentioned on Sup Forums. Foetus and NIN get the most discussion. I'd say Current 93 too but only their later folk stuff gets discussed.
Coil is talked about a lot too, but most people just focus on The Ape of Naples which is pretty overrated.
Troller - Graphic is some pretty sweet darkwave from this year. Great vocals and atmosphere.
I found this one through 433rpm which is a great blogspot for this kinda stuff.
I'm also listening to un-kommuniti - black dwarf wreckordings 83-85. this band and that whole black dwarf crew is sadly ignored by Sup Forums
>All industrial except maybe SPK is underrated on Sup Forums
well there's also coil and maybe two TG albums
How does /dark/ feel about early Skinny Puppy?
I'm entranced by electro industrial that is basically just goth synthpop a la Twitch era Ministry.
I see leichenshrei often in chart threads.
I mean yeah that's an essential album but as for discussion it's seldom seen if at all
Early SP is so god-tier. Their first two Back & Forth comps are very much worth checking out.
Just listened to pic related for the first few times and holy shit. I'm not familiar with Death in June in any way, but this is god tier. For some reason it reminds me of Within the Realm of a Dying Sun by Dead Can Dance, probably because of the echoey production, vast keyboard backgrounds and the dark jaded voice that reminds me of Brendan Perry's tracks. The lyrics are pretty compelling as well.
What's the next DiJ album to get into?
In other news what are you guys doing for halloween? Probably going to spend the night in the Paris Catacombs with a few metalhead friends.
Brown Book and The World That Summer, friendo.

Front 242 - Fuck Up Evil
Thanks I'll check that out tomorrow morning
...
There's no Halloween here and I have no friends so I'll probably be shitposting on Sup Forums
>In other news what are you guys doing for halloween?
I'mma get trashed and watch some /dark/ movies with my roommates, anyone have any suggestions? I already have tetsuo and a few other similar japanese movies but if I show more than one of these my roommates will get pissed
The old universal monsters movies are very comfy
I have been meaning to check those out and this seems like the perfect time
Near Dark if you haven't seen already. Great soundtrack by Tangerine Dream as well.
KMFDM's 80's output in general is underrated. Which is criminal because their early period was some unique shit that would get overshadowed by the club goth nonsense they'd be known for.
tfw Nardwuar brought up that album to GPO in their interview.
Where do you live where there is no Halloween?
Did he actually interview Genesis?
I need a link to this.
I dig all the kmfdm I've ever heard, but I've only heard Naive to present, which of their earlier work do you recommend highest?
...
Sleep Chamber - Some Godz Die Young
Salome

nonsense? I'll take club goth over "lady don't hurt me" any day.
their best song
youtube.com
What Do You Know Deutschland followed by Naive.
i refer to goths who only care about danceable stuff.
How do you make a /dark/ band when everyone in your area wants to do metalcore or classic rock?
Fuck a band get a drum machine and whatever else and do everything yourself.
You're the first poster on Sup Forums that actually cares about them lmao
they're pretty well liked in these threads
Just saw the Cure live, Damn Robert has still got it
i feel the same way. This is a song from william's solo project qual
I just to a song by them 'she said destroy', i felt it was off beat,unorganized and unoriginal
films everyone who posts in /dark/ should see:
The Innocents
Haunting
Onibaba
Kuroneko
The House of the Devil
Nosferatu (original and Herzog remake)
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari
Carnival of Souls
Vampyr
in response to your halloween question. I was gonna marathon a crap ton of horror movies, and scare my local neighborhood trick r treaters.
The most important /dark/ movie to see is The Hunger.
youtube.com
i like this song
truuuuuuuuue, can't believe I forgot that one.
I've only seen The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari unfortunately. Do you think Vargtimmen would be a good addition to that list though?
that song and album is overrated desu. douglas pearce sings in a very monotonous tone but not as much as Michael Gira. their early stuff is joy division worship get to their mid-late 80's material.
listening now
bump for Coil
Bump
Holy shit that bar looks like the absolute worst time ever.
y'all collect tapes?
Is /dark/ music the true patrician choice?
by the way Iceage is death rock
You have to be pretty commited
what's an album in a different bands discog that sounds like Children of God
cringe
>look at us we're so individualistic we invnted our own uniforms
>you will never be a goth living in the 80s
Why even live?
If you mean like a slow heavy industrial rock concept album then that's a tough one m8. MAYBE Through Silver and Blood by Neurosis although not really /dark/-related.
I don't collect tapes but I prefer collecting old industrial records. Tape collecting seems more like a devoted endeavor.
I do both, plus tapes tend to be cheaper. Having a nice collection of physical music is great either way
i'd much rather live in the future than the past. i want to be a goth living in 3000AD
Is anything else similar to pre white light era swans?
Yes, Godflesh especially

some others

Children of God is a god-tier industrial rock album but I don't know any very similar albums. That album was influential on NIN and it shows in some of their songs but I don't know how you feel about them.
Oh shit slab! is really doing something for me
Yeah that album is really Swansy and unfortunately also their only good one. Very worth checking out.
The vocals are very Gira-esque. Thanks user
goddamn I always forget how nice of a voice she has
>you will never build a Gothic cathedral in the 1200s
I was born in the wrong generation
Some aged better than others. For instance Frankenstein and the bride of Frankenstein are still great.
Netherlands, there are probably some parties but it has never been a thing here
youtube.com
WELCOME TO GERMANY HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR STAY
ENDLESS DAYS OF FOREVER GREY
Just finished listening to Only Theatre of Pain for the first time, and wow!
Where to next? Should I continue on to their next album?
Yeah I suppose. One of Bergman's most underrated films.
Yes
Yes sir
Return of the Living Dead is mandatory /dark/ viewing
lots of deathrock bands in the soundtrack
>you will never be a Roman who slaughters Goths on a daily basis
YOU THINK THIS IS A FUCKING COSTUME?
THIS IS A WAY OF LIFE!
Noob here.
Can someone post separate examples of:
>Goth Rock
>Death Rock
>Cold Wave
I am unfamiliar with these three genres.
just go on wikipedia
Whitehouse - Bird Seed
>severely underrated industrial
more like severely overrated power electronics
:P
>not being man enough for Whitehouse
whitehouse ain't macho.
they got nothing on Nitzer Ebb
How is whitehouse either industrial or underrated, mr. man
Love Nitzer Ebb too
It's very macho, it's music that tries to get you to think about yourself in the most confrontational way possible.
THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EM
I'LL SHOW YOU EMOTIONAL TRUTH
I'LL SHOW YOU THE FUCKING SOURCE
I'LL SHOW YOU YET ANOTHER FUCKING LIAR
>industrial
It's industrial in the original Throbbing Gristle tradition of harsh music rather than danceable
>underrated
I never hear it mentioned
MUSCLE AND HATE
Oh, so industrial in name only.
Actually power electronics
>I never hear it mentioned
Oh so THAT'S why it's so overrated? half of the people who listened to it aren't aware of the fact that it's already been mentioned and lauded tons of time, so they think it's gotta be super cool if they haven't heard it mentioned yet.
I see.
That's not being macho that's being preachy and obnoxious.
>being this anal about distinctions of genre
Wew lad
Calm down
genre distinctions are important. When I ask for industrial I don't want a white dude freestyle rapping over one long continuous glitchfart
