This week we’re discussing the only album by Maskull. This album is the biggest mystery we’ve ever had on this show. After its release in 1997, Maskull vanished leaving virtually no trace, aside from a few rumors. The music itself? Completely insane and downright hilarious. Joined by Mike’s brother Robert, we dive deep into the rabbit hole to uncover as much information as we can. Strap in for this one, folks.

This week we’re discussing every album by Siouxsie and the Banshees from 1978 to 1982. Aside from being one of the most influential bands in modern music, Siouxsie Sioux and the Banshees played a major role in pioneering goth music, along with Bauhaus and the Cure. In this episode, we’re tackling the early years where they laid the foundation. It’s also the first time in a while Mike and Alex nearly strangle each other for their Worst Album picks.
Read MoreEpisode 113: Bauhaus
This week we’re discussing every album by Bauhaus. Credited with pioneering goth, Bauhaus took elements from punk, post-punk, reggae, and horror to create a completely unique and influential style. Don’t let the makeup and black clothing distract you—these guys were awesome songwriters.
Read MoreEpisode 87: The Chameleons
This week we’re talking about England’s The Chameleons. These guys are often associated with fellow post-punk/goth acts like Joy Division and The Cure, but were entirely distinct in style, in addition to being fantastic songwriters. Alex and Mike both went into this band blind but came out delighted by the accessibility and inventiveness of this group. Dig it.
Closing track: “Tears” from Strange Times (1986)
