It's always a treat when you see your 20 year old, short-lived band (Radio Scarlet) show up in a genre summary video. Great video, great song, and great laughs! Stay sick!!! 🖤💀🖤
This old goth is back to say I love this new instalment (even more than I love actual old deathrock) Well done! Really interesting about the snare thing. I don't know if I ever noticed, but I do recall that when I went looking for a drum machine in the year *cough mumble* I cited the Sisters of Mercy (goth rock, not deathrock, I know) as my reference point and the guitar shop guy recommended the SR16 because of how much you could detune the samples
This is hilarious, especially the part with the Radio Scarlet joke. I know those people and have seen and hung out with them many times. Tomorrow night the vocalist Anthony (the guy whose picture you showed) is DJing a horror punk Halloween event so I'll share this with him. Amazing video.
This is one of those, "I feel called out." episodes, the best kind! I would literally jam to this song if it came up on a deathrock playlist if I were listening to it while doing art or making things up for an RPG etc. Literally, it me. It me. :-D
I just got "only theatre of pain" on vinyl the other day from a record convention! What a coincidence Pagefire makes a video about the very genre! Love these videos! Keep it up dude!
Not a big fan of the genre in general, but I never pass up a chance to see more pagefire. Song is awesome, even if its not for me. Can't wait for Pirate Metal or Technical Death metal
I've been waiting for that one for agesss thank you so muchhhhh you guys are awesomme This and the other video about Post Punk are my comfort videos to motivate myself develop my own goth band
As a gothy post-punk deathrock dude, I resented "coming of age" in the late 2000s during the emo / metal era - where edgy alternative kids were usually found listening to "cookie monster metal". So that made me laugh. It's shocking how many alternative / goth folk nowadays just don't know much about deathrock bands - I was always more about Christian Death, Kommunity FK, and Sex Gang Children than I was about any sort of Nu Goth stuff. I like the Rikk Agnew guitar sound (high-pitched, shrieking chords with reverb) and the heavy punkish drums, the rhythmic basslines...
Gothic rock might have been born in britain but america perfected it with deathrock and horror punk Deathrock parent genres: Rock Gothic rock Punk rock Glam rock Hard rock Post punk Horror punk parent genres: Punk rock Gothic rock Psychobilly Doo wop
Dude. Im orbiting around gothic subcultures since the 90s, although I'm no goth, just dark and sick in the head. Goth folks used to despise me because I use no aesthetics. Awesome channel! I good to learn a bit about this stuff that made part of my life, all of it basically, even if I never putted myself on actually researching and understanding the differences between all the sub-sub genres. I wish I enjoyed deathrock more. Love the style, love 45 grave (which I always thought was horror punk). But can't listen to a full Christian Death nor Alien sex Fiend's albums at home, it bores me, although I'd dance it to death and reanimation at clubs. Inside goth, what gets me more is gothic rock and Dark Wave, like Clan of Xymox and all the classics like 100 years from The Cure and Bauhaus' Hollow Hills. Id like to like more the accustic, more "pure" stuff, but I can't resist the sound of a synth, unfortunately
I've just found again the Mysterious music of the internet - Like the wind and that shit relightened the punk - Goth - Industrial flame inside me. Years ago i would be shitting in the punk genres and subgenres, but now i'm using platforms and fishnets
Thank you so much for paying attention to one of my most favorite genres. It's so underrated at the same time cuz there was not any good video about deathrock until this one!
It would be cool if your generation did a '' How To Make Something New For Once Instead Of REHASHING EVERYTHING How W E Grew UP ''' HOw about try that ?
Awesome job all of you! I love all of your videos but this one might be my favorite. So funny and informative. You have greatly opened my eyes to so many different genres of music I never knew existed. Thank you!! I’m going to be on a Death Rock kick now for at least a month now.😂
Is there any oi-influenced deathrock? I've always wondered what the genre would sound like with more chelseas and less deathhawks. I really appreciate deathrock but am no authority on the genre so if you think of something let me know :) (No death-RAC if that even exists)
@@kimberlyvespa sugar oi come on! (I love vanilla muffins!) And yeah I might have to do it myself. I'm vocals, synths, and production; alas. Would need to find guitarist. On a tangent though: if goths are "bats" (like in the term babybat) and some older skins call skingirls "skinbyrds", are deathrock skins skinbats? Food for thought :3
@@PandasGoMarchingIn I had an old friend that was generally a skin, but when he was younger, would alternate some gothic dress when he went out at night for a couple of years in his early 20s. He’s passed away, sadly. Good guy. 😢 On another note, do you like Giuda? Love that band and so good live, too. If you need any female backing vocals, I’m a former lead singer from a couple of bands. I sound a bit like Penelope from the Avengers mixed with a little bit of Beki from Vice Squad. A little bit Poly Styrene when I get really loud. Lol!
wow this might be my favorite vidoe! I think I might have found what I been looking for. When I search for horrorpunk i usually get goth-a-billy and I do not really care for that. This is the direction I been looking for. Thanks!!!
Nice! But please bring back those bits of philosophy in the final credits, without them my life is aimless and empty of meaning... :p Keep up the good work... :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
