Has anyone heard of them? They are described as "dark pop" by Wikipedia. But I think they are rather joyous. They are mostly about the love between two women. Not necessarily two lesbians, but nevertheless it may be perceived that way. They can be somewhat mournful, but not in any political way. Just in the way that one girl can slip away from another girl and adopt herself into the hegemony. If you have heard of them, let me know.

If you need a furtive midnight wank and you have no rag/ sock to hand, do you let the sheets absorb the mess or let your pyjamas soak it up? No-one else on here will answer this simple question so I may as well ask some newbie spamming their atrocious sounding band.

Viscova

It's a pretty good guess. I guess I just thought this was the safest place to start, a low activity forum. Didn't wanna just jump in to the hard esoteric stuff. Maybe we can talk about your band, Big Mister Spam Killer Sr.

As for DVs creds, look em up. They ain't gettin no bigger from my spam on this cutsie comedy forum.

Love + Love,

Heard them or heard of them?  I've heard of them, but I haven't heard them. Precious band names tend to make me flee in the other direction.  I thinking perhaps, Strawberry Switchblade, but with a more goth/30 eyelet bootgaze/William Morris vines and Celtic cross tattoos flavour?

Strawberry Switchblade
Eyelet bootgaze

Gotcha. Two cool new band names for me to check out.

As for precious names making you flee, I guess we are the opposite. I love the cutesie. Especially the cutesie which threatens darkness. Call me a goth, whatever. But I still love Marilyn Manson and Type O Negative too.

I don't sap very much, but if I had a Dark Tree, I would go pajamas everytime. :)

30 eyelet bootgaze is a - currently - fictitious, twatty sub-genre I've just invented, but Strawberry Switchblade are worth checking out.  Dreamy, ethereal-tinged pop.  Surprisingly catchy.  Came out of the same Glasgow art student milieu that spawned the Postcard bands.  Rose McDowall went on to do presumably darker, more transgressive stuff (I've not heard it) with Boyd Rice.

Glasgow's Geographic Records are currently planning a big Strawberry Switchblade reissue. Rose did get into some weird nazi black magick sex ritual stuff, which is documented here...

Wosl, let's make up some new bands:

Transviolent Kitten Klass
Watermelon Symphony
Dark Dead Ugly Fuckers
Wonder Child Lives For Death
Lina Merser Is Too Stupid To Live

I can't be bothered.  The Beach Beetles.  The Beachles.  See?

Didn't they do the theme tune for some TV show?

Benevolent Despot

Angel. Those halcyon days when T4 used to air it and Stargate SG-1 at the weekends. What strange days those were.

A time lost.

Mark Steels Stockbroker

I haven't heard them but I expect they're shit, like all new bands.

And cut it to fucking ribbons.  They should be shot for that.

You saucy cunt.

I remember you from the old Novogate days, Mister Leather. And you were always just about this pleasant.

Benevolent is correct. Too bad that Angel sucked so much and it was one of DV's worst tunes. So it goes. Squink.
