So You Think You’re Goth?

May 6th, 2009 by Christopher

So those of you with a hankering for classic Gothic Rock (as opposed to what passes for “Goth” these days) are in for a treat. Journalist extraordinaire Mick Mercer, who has been covering all things Goth for a few decades, is now re-releasing a lot of out of print material that any collector or aficionado is going to want to snatch up.

Gothic Interviews, Volumes one, two and three each feature over two hundred pages of interviews and stories including such artists as Alien Sex Fiend, All About Eve, Ausgang, Bauhaus, Christian Death (Valor), Sex Gang Children, The Cult, Ultravox! (John Foxx), The Virgin Prunes, Rubicon, The Society (post-The Danse Society), Theatre of Hate, Venus Fly Trap, Venus In Furs, Adam And The Ants and many, many more. Also included are hundreds of photos, most of which have never before been published.

But that isn’t all. You can also get Goth Giggery which brings together a ton of show reviews and even more photos unseen over the decades. Beyond that there’s Gothic Rock Black Book (Author’s Edition), Mercer’s first book on Goth now reprinted and Gothic Rock, yet another timeless treat expanded to 400 pages.

These are some invaluable resources being offered in a first edition for cheap. The second editions will be available via Amazon for much more money. As they say on TV, ACT NOW! Follow the links for more information.
