This episode covers our thoughts on Vampires and our favorite versions of the creatures of the night.
This is the first episode of a new format for GothCast that we streamed live yesterday. It is a somewhat lighthearted “Goth broadcast” that covers subjects we enjoy. It’s a less structured than the in-depth histories I do on the previous GothCast Podcast (that you can stream most places) as we’re going for more of a talk show set-up that allows us to interact with everyone more directly.

The Lords of the New Church – Retrospective
It’s been a long time since I’ve put out a long retrospective like this…well here it is. The first podcast I’ve done that is also a video. I like how this turned out, but I have a lot of ideas going forward that will make it a bit different. I hope you enjoy finally getting a new podcast. We’re working on some more already.
We cover the often underrated and very misunderstood Lords of the New Church. A supergroup with members of The Dead Boys and The Damned. Truly a unique band with a very unusual tone .We cover the Debut Album [1982], Is Nothing Sacred? [1983], The Method To Our Madness [1984], and Hang On [2003].
Podcast Episode 62 – Christian Death – Valor Kand Part 2

This reunion episode brings back Robbie Gore as the original GothCast duo break down some lesser talked about albums from the Valor Kand era of Christian Death. It’s one of the more interesting eras of the group as two competing versions of the band were releasing material sometimes within the same year. They cover the albums Insanus, Ultio, Proditio, Misericordiaque (1990), Sexy Death God (1994), Prophecies (1996), and well…one more from 1998. This one gets a little strange, but that’s nothing new to this podcast.

Podcast Episode 61 – Samhain

It’s time to rock with death again as Dr.Sanders and Cameron tackle Danzig’s project after the Misfits and before his solo band Danzig. A much beloved, but sometimes overlooked era with tons of reverb and songs that sometimes sound like they could be the theme to an 80’s slasher movie. You don’t have to wait for “November” to come this year because this episode is “Final-ly Descending” to the podcast world. They take a look at Initium (1984), Unholy Passion (1985), Samhain III: November-Coming-Fire (1986), and Final Descent (1990).

There’s no bones about it, Dr.Sanders and Cameron take a trip to visit the family…The Skeletal Family. Specifically the era of the band with singer Anne Marie Hurst. They were “promised” a lot with these records and they hope their efforts aren’t “futile”. They examine the albums Burning Oil (1984), Futile Combat (1985), and the compilation Eternal (2016).

On this possession-filled episode, Dr.Sanders and Cameron are visited by three movies that lurk in the shadows. The Exorcist and the two sequels it spawned vary wildly in quality, but just may hold some great surprises for those who decide to venture into their worlds. Can you survive these horrific reviews of The Exorcist (1973), The Exorcist II: Heretic (1977), and The Exorcist III (1990)!? May the power of GothCast compel you!

Dr.Sanders and Cameron take a look at what the Misfits had going on in the 90’s and early 2000’s. With the addition of singer Michale Graves and a series of new albums, what could possibly go wrong? They look at the albums American Psycho (1997), Evilive II (1998), Famous Monsters (1999), and Cuts from the Crypt (2001). There’s a lot of controversy surrounding this era and the two hope to cover the things most fans are curious about.
