Stretching the "Goth" definition, as per my preference of the post-punk aspects of Goth as opposed to the more cartoonish aspects of the genre. The Chills and Delta 5 have never been considered "Goth bands", but these songs are dark, ominous, and ultimately fitting for what I had in mind. Of course, every Goth collection stretches the definition, as there really is no clear-cut definition. Basically...the sort of thing that you wouldn't be surprised to hear in a goth danceclub. I avoided many of the obvious choices (Sisters Of Mercy, The Birthday Party, The Mission UK, The Chameleons UK, etc.) that I love, but just didn't quite fit in with the flow here on this mix. Enjoy.
