A music rec request
Dunno how many goffs are lurking on my friendslist or reading my journal, but if any of you happen to find this I have a little request for you. It's pretty simple.
Basically, I want recommendations for songs and/or albums by old school goth bands. Albums you feel are landmark, songs that you like or think are particularly representative of their bands. I don't want Manson, I don't want Voltaire or Switchblade Symphony or Inkubus Sukkubus. I'm talking Bauhaus, Christian Death, Fields of the Nephilim, Joy Division, Sisters of Mercy, Love and Rockets. My general problem is that I've heard of them all but have no idea where to start; I could employ the highly scientific method of searching for 'Christian Death' on eMule and seeing which songs pop up the most frequently, but frankly I'd rather have human input.
Recs for old-school/experimental industrial in the same vein are also appreciated. Not artists, but songs and albums.
