Hey all. I’m looking for recommendations for songs specifically about “monsters”, which in the context in which I’m writing, is defined as a supernatural creature that exists between natural categories (i.e.,“interstitial”). Basically, vampires, werewolves, zombies, etc. Bonus points if there is a direct “story line” in the song.

I’m writing on the appeal of these kinds of monsters in context of horror films but I want to extend it to discuss it in music and my first thoughts came here. I will include other genres, but my heart lies here with the goths.

Show us what you've DIY (Do It Yourself) lately! Be it clothes, painting, maybe a Andrew Eldritch lookalike?

So i’m planning to go to Germany next year (from the UK) to attend a festival but i’m not sure if i should attend M’era Luna or Wave Gotik Treffen. I love a lot of different music and I would like to get to see a bit of Germany whilst i’m there, my fave goth/post punk/gothic bands are Vision Video, Sisters Of Mercy, Bauhaus, Joy Division, Clan Of Xymox, Lebanon Hanover, Rosegarden Funeral Party, Alien Sex Fiend etc. Any help from people who have either attended/know people who have would be super appreciated! 🙂
