My proto-goth records would be: Dead Babies - Alice Cooper Tangier - Donovan The End - The Doors Avalanche - Leonard Cohen Third Uncle - Brian Eno In Every Dream Home a Heartache - Roxy Music I Put a Spell On You - Screamin’ Jay Hawkins We Will Fall - The Stooges Frankie Teardrop - Suicide Venus in Furs - The Velvet Underground
Hee-Haw, yessss! Amazing compilation album. The Birthday Party are always so underrated. They've always been a band that I've seen as extremely important/key in the shift of post-punk into what would become goth. Definitely a must for anyone getting into the subculture.
Oh, I love Closer! I, actually, like it more than Unknown Pleasures. Your channel is such a big breath of fresh air for the goth community here on TH-cam. Great job, and thank you. 🦇🦇🦇
@@CadaverKelly Nice! Like many, the post-punk I grew up with are The Cure, Siouxsie Sioux, and Bauhaus. But, I've been exploring Virgin Prunes, as well as Pink Turns Blue (the latter I will see in concert this September). Which album from Virgin Prunes do you recommend the most?
Ah! You're awesome. I'm so glad I found your channel. You have such good content!! It's been exactly what I was needing and looking for from the goth community on TH-cam
I love to watch videos like this where people talks about the music, the fashion, movies or the books they love. I like all bands and records mencioned.
(Proto-) Goth starts with Nico's lp trilogy The Marble Index (1968 th-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_k7lD8IP7qBvfiUr8cA5eNNzOQm58c0QDw.html&feature=shared), Desertshore (1970 th-cam.com/play/OLAK5uy_kib25gkRngWH3NuRMxjZq9uRBbT7Sm9qg.html&feature=shared) and The End (1974 th-cam.com/play/PLH-9xJgN6p8yF_CvorQ4nP1aW1YCurgFh.html&feature=shared). Nico's repetetive harmonium and gloomy voice are accompanied by John Cale's sinister and menacing arrangements, being the blueprint for the likes of Siouxsie, Joy Division, Bauhaus and many more.
I absolutely adore The Scream! It’s truly a landmark album. I also found out recently that the name and album cover was inspired by the 1968 Burt Lancaster film The Swimmer, where a man tries to “swim home” from the psycho-ward from pool to pool in suburbia. He realizes when he finally does get back home that everything is gone and all he can do is scream. Siouxsie because of the film wanted the cover to be unnerving and disturbing things underwater, since no one can hear you scream underwater…👻💧
Great job. I always loved Adam and all the new romantics...."goth adjacent "? style. All the blitz kids were the bomb. Joy Division is one of my all time favorites as well.
Another great video! TIB has got to be one of my favorite Cure albums, too. Object is probably my fave track off there. Question for you: what would you say the benefits are of a rock vinyl collection? My husband has a collection from when he was a house/rave DJ in the 90s, but that's totally different than a personal rock-based vinyl collection. It seems cool, but would you say it's worth someone starting a collection if they don't have one now?
S V Personally, I find it to be a rewarding hobby. I like having a physical collection of music and I’m big into the novelty of retro reproduction and antiques. There’s also something so satisfying about hearing the “crackle and pop” of the needle against the vinyl. It does require space, time, and money so it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. But, I find it enjoyable. 😊
Emily Rachel Gilley LOL! Gotta reel em in somehow. 😜 I actually hate that. TH-cam keeps doing that to my videos and I don’t know why. When I watch back the original file, that doesn’t happen.
love the show. love th information given, love your look....but.... may I suggest, playing a bit with the lighting so I can see you nose? overblown on camera - your features a blown out. AGAIN, just a suggestion - I love this show. Thank you.
I love how much you know, you sound like a real expert and I enjoy learning about the subculture - I'm a real novice. _I have no clue of how to navigate this strange and magical world called goth._
Now I'm curious if you like any Beatles songs. I think goths might consider them suspect but obviously they're hugely renowned. I recommend the White Album because it's experimental and vaguely provocative
Ha - stupid you-tube censorship. So I need to post again. Anyway - I was about to suggest another really great proto-goth record. The track Ghost Rider from 1977 (also Frankie Teardrop). Band name begins with S but can't be typed here. A link: th-cam.com/video/Dn7SBQ6X5HU/w-d-xo.html
1979 *was* a fabulous year for rock. It was the second year I was into post punk, what good fortune! I was shocked to see Unknown Pleasures at #3 but when you explained how special the top two are to you it all made sense. 🦇
If Only you people would learn what post punk & especially Goth actually is only Goth etc bands in your list are Play Dead / birthday Party Thats its...Joy Division were punk band /Siouxsie were punk band especially both albums you like I first saw them live on the Scream tour about month before it came out /the Cure are nothing Goth etc/ Dirk by Adam& the Ants was 100% punk shame it was only album they did before they split up but all their pre Dirk songs were better & stand & deliver Ants mk2 great song but so funny you puttingthem in there they were a chart friendl 8:53 y pop band then ..Goth originators were Bauhaus & UK Decay..some Real Goth bands you should listen to & learn are Sex Gang Children debut album / Blood & Roses / Skeletal Family / Under Two Flags / Southern Death Cult/ Ritual/ Theatre of Hate (early) / Gene Loves Jezebel(early) / Virgin Prunes just a few for you to actually get into Goth /post punk
My proto-goth records would be:
Dead Babies - Alice Cooper
Tangier - Donovan
The End - The Doors
Avalanche - Leonard Cohen
Third Uncle - Brian Eno
In Every Dream Home a Heartache - Roxy Music
I Put a Spell On You - Screamin’ Jay Hawkins
We Will Fall - The Stooges
Frankie Teardrop - Suicide
Venus in Furs - The Velvet Underground
Hee-Haw, yessss! Amazing compilation album. The Birthday Party are always so underrated. They've always been a band that I've seen as extremely important/key in the shift of post-punk into what would become goth. Definitely a must for anyone getting into the subculture.
I agree! The Birthday Party is so close to being gothic post-punk. They really were a critical transition point from classic post-punk to goth. 😎
Siouxsie’s Juju is one of my faves. And you cannot go wrong with TIB!! Grinding Halt. ❤️
Okay for proto-goth, I guess. For paving the way for goth, there is The Marble Index by Nico and Diamond Dogs by David Bowie.
Oh, I love Closer! I, actually, like it more than Unknown Pleasures. Your channel is such a big breath of fresh air for the goth community here on TH-cam. Great job, and thank you. 🦇🦇🦇
Adem Can Vaner Thanks so much! Closer is amazing. Joy Division is just so solid overall. 😊
@@CadaverKelly Indeed! I wonder if you have explored Virgin Prunes, and what you think of them.
Adem Can Vaner Of course! Great band 😊 I have Virgin Prunes on vinyl as well. I place them in the gothic post-punk category.
@@CadaverKelly Nice! Like many, the post-punk I grew up with are The Cure, Siouxsie Sioux, and Bauhaus. But, I've been exploring Virgin Prunes, as well as Pink Turns Blue (the latter I will see in concert this September). Which album from Virgin Prunes do you recommend the most?
Adem Can Vaner Check out “The Moon Looked Down and Laughed” by Virgin Prunes. It’s one of my favorite goth post punk albums. 😃
If your talking proto goth you have to include the doors, nico and the velvet underground
Another great list. I love Siouxsie And The Banshees so much. I remember the first time I heard 'Mother', that is the creepiest music box ever!
Ah! You're awesome. I'm so glad I found your channel. You have such good content!! It's been exactly what I was needing and looking for from the goth community on TH-cam
The birthday party 🖤🖤🖤
Well that brought me back to being an 80's child. My sister had Adam and the Ants over her wall, I remember the album well! Cool collection 💜
I love to watch videos like this where people talks about the music, the fashion, movies or the books they love. I like all bands and records mencioned.
I love that you know a lot of music styles and shits about music in general, and I love your channel honestly is a gem you are one too! ♥
Thank you so much! 🖤
@@CadaverKelly ALWAYS my pleasure dear Kelly xo
Your content is so good ! I cant wait for more record lists ~! ❣💀
Sleepy Gale Thank you! 😊
Oh good lawd, I love Play Dead 💀 (going to look for that on vinyl now) & I already have Closer on vinyl 😇. Great video, thank you 💖
Hell yeah! She's Lost Control is definitely my favorite Joy Division song, glad you mentioned it! Amazing list as always. 🖤🤘

I love these videos btw! 🖤
these videos got me into goth music and it’s honestly the best thing thats ever happened to me thank you!!
That’s amazing! This comment made my day 😊
Pure from The Scream, truly one of the greatest opening tracks to an album
I love your channel so much! 🦇🖤

Good choices , love banshees too , mainly ju ju but the peel session abum also great
Joy Division - Still.....Dead Souls gotta be up there as one of the best tracks in this category
I'm liking your videos, they're loaded with info and substance.
*runs off in search of Play Dead*
Thanks, Hayshaker! 😊
Great video Kelly! Hello from France
I FUCKING LOVE JOY DIVISION UNKNOWN PLEASURES.
Great job. I always loved Adam and all the new romantics...."goth adjacent "? style. All the blitz kids were the bomb. Joy Division is one of my all time favorites as well.
Thank you! The New Romantic Post-Punk style is awesome 😊
Awesome. Really good to see your take on albums and varied 😊😊👍🏻
Another great video! TIB has got to be one of my favorite Cure albums, too. Object is probably my fave track off there.

Finally, Adam and The Ants getting some recognition
The cure cold great goth music...the 3 first albuns of cure are amazing...
Cool video! You've been offering so many great vids that are well researched and thought out. Thank you!
Much love to the Proto Goth and Post Punk. Thank you ❤
I love this channel. It’s so informational and really helps me navigate through my journey of goth music. Bless you so much you wonderful soul 🖤
It's all 99% wrong about the bands & Goth etc
Awesome list! I would add "The Black Album" by The Damned 🖤 too
great list!
LOL I love the subliminal logo popping in. I love most of these albums but I have one to check out!
Emily Rachel Gilley LOL! Gotta reel em in somehow. 😜 I actually hate that. TH-cam keeps doing that to my videos and I don’t know why. When I watch back the original file, that doesn’t happen.
Every album is a gem. Nice to see dirk wears white socks in there
Great video! :D
Great pics fersher. Sorry to not see Pornography on here. Thanks for sharing.
I clicked when I saw that alblum!
Great list I would have put a few by PIL on here but aside from that awesome video
Thank you! Unfortunately, I don't have any Public Image on vinyl record... yet haha
@@CadaverKelly that'll have to change lol
silver bullet industries Definitely! 😃
Great list. Accuracy is one of the few Cure songs I don't like though.
Excellent video sweetie!
Please keep doing these :-)
We will have to rummage through your 300 strong record collection one day :-)
Xxxx
absolutely amazing. im in love
Great choice and great vid. You could do an early electriconica top 10 which would be fun.
Kat K Bunny Queen Thank you! I don’t have many electronica albums. But, I do plan on doing a few for Darkwave, New Wave, and Synthpop! 😊
love the show. love th information given, love your look....but.... may I suggest, playing a bit with the lighting so I can see you nose? overblown on camera - your features a blown out. AGAIN, just a suggestion - I love this show. Thank you.
amazing collection!
Japan life in tokyo, sisters of mercy lights, roxy music i dont remember the album,
I love how much you know, you sound like a real expert and I enjoy learning about the subculture - I'm a real novice. _I have no clue of how to navigate this strange and magical world called goth._
Thank you so much! I’m glad it’s helpful 😊
Love this list! 🖤🖤🖤
Three Imaginary Boys is amazing
I believe The Damned had a big impact on goth, and eventually made goth records. Grimly fiendish ones 🦇🕷🕸⚰
They had Nothing to do with Goth at all
Can I mention that you look very cute with this hairstyle?
For me adam and the ants kings of the wild frontier is one of the best albums ever
Highly entertaining review :)
Siuoxsie & The Banshees - the best British band ever, also the most underrated.
Martić Žarko Agreed! 😊
Now I'm curious if you like any Beatles songs. I think goths might consider them suspect but obviously they're hugely renowned. I recommend the White Album because it's experimental and vaguely provocative
Where’s the Chameleons “Script of the Bridge” or The Sound’s first two lps?
Great video, really love to see folks in the Goth community showing vinyl, I collect Goth Vinyl myself. Keep them coming!
Ha - stupid you-tube censorship. So I need to post again.
Anyway - I was about to suggest another really great proto-goth record. The track Ghost Rider from 1977 (also Frankie Teardrop). Band name begins with S but can't be typed here. A link: th-cam.com/video/Dn7SBQ6X5HU/w-d-xo.html
Adam and the ants,pop music me thinks
Unknown Pleasures is my number one favorite post punk album, I love Ian Curtis’s Jim Morrison like vocals and the lyrics
Play Dead are awesome 😍
Gloria Mundi? Early Killing Joke?
joy division three times!
1979 *was* a fabulous year for rock. It was the second year I was into post punk, what good fortune!
I was shocked to see Unknown Pleasures at #3 but when you explained how special the top two are to you it all made sense. 🦇
Is Gene loves Jezebel Goth ?
joy division twice? i mean, i love that band but ...
You are absolutely beautiful
