Christian Death – Ashes Album Review [Video]

Posted on by

It’s been almost 2 full years since I’ve talked about Christian Death, so it seemed like a great time to talk about my favorite album from the band. Every time I make an video about this band, the comment just turn into a giant argument about Rozz and Valor….so let’s see what happens this time. I was a little bit under the weather when I recorded this one, but I think it still turned out the way I wanted.

Goth Thrifting in California (Plus Vinyl Restoration) [Video]

I took a trip to California and did some thrifting. There were plenty of thrift stores to choose from and the temperature was way too hot for me. I definitely prefer an overcast rainy day. This video was more of an experiment to see if people wanted to see similar episodes. It seems to have gone over well so I guess I’ll make more.

On a technical note, editing this video was a nightmare. It took way longer than expected, but that’s probably because I’m such a perfectionist.

I’m glad I can finally share this review with you guys! I really feel like this album is overlooked by many people who enjoy goth music and I’m happy to spread the word about it.

Misery Obscura Book Review [Video]

This book is great! I found it randomly while browsing Amazon and I was pleasantly surprised. I really wish there was a book dedicated to any of the bands featured in Misery Obscura. Eerie Von did an amazing job putting this together and if you haven’t already, then I recommend you check out Samhain’s music (Initium and November Coming Fire are my favorites) and Dazing II & III.

If you want to pick up a copy of this great book for yourself, then check out the link below (and no, this isn’t a sponsored review. I made it because I wanted to):

Type O Negative – Bloody Kisses Review [Video]

What a great album! I have wanted to cover a Type O Negative album for a looonnngg time, but it is very difficult to objectively review albums from your favorite band. I actually learned a few new things while doing research. One thing I din’t mention in this video is the Bloody Kisses demos. The demo for We Hate Everyone is AMAZING! I actually like it more than the album version.

History of Release of the Bats [Video]

This is still one of my favorite videos. I’ll be honest and say that I’m not really that fond of travelling anywhere, but it was really great to talk with everyone involved. I have a lot of memories attached to Release the Bats (some good and some bad), and I’m glad I got a chance to try and document what it was really like.

This actually took a lot of time to edit together. I filmed the interview footage in May of 2018 and I didn’t release the video until October 2018. It’s always difficult to do these types of videos because I try to tell the history of the subject while also giving my impressions of social event. It’s not quite as straightforward as an album or book review.

I lived in Orange County for a number of years and you would always see those tiny flyers or posts online about Release the Bats. Your friend would call you up and ask if we were all going and how could you possibly say no? It’s weird that we can’t go to Bats anymore, but I’m glad that as of writing this post, Dave and Jenn are organizing other great events.
