3. nitzer ebb - let your body learn (12 inch mix) (6:27)
4. Skinny Puppy - Assimilate (R-23) (6:33) Vancouver, BC goth. Saw them before they became huge - they played at the Dance Studio (now defunct) in New West. Cheesy, but good. Then they got bigger, and met Ministry and heroin. silly boys. it's death death death death.....
5. Lacuna Coil - Swamped (4:02)
6. Dir en grey - "S" (3:30) Could you look any cooler? cut it out. make me jealous.
7. Alien Sex Fiend - In God We Trust (In Cars You Rust?) (4:49) One of the original Batcave bands.
8. The Cramps - Dames, Booze, Chains and Boots (4:36) If you have a chance, see them live. Rock 'n roll stripped down to its raw essence. Also, if Lux strips again, you'll see he's uncircumcised. Fact.
9. Scraping Foetus off the Wheel - DI-1-9026 (4:40) Mr Clint Ruin and his demonic obsession: (If'n you wanna get some kicks, phone...) DI-1-9026 was the phone number of the Spahn Ranch. Creepy crawl. "Are you ready to die? Then live forever!"
10. Shriekback - Lined Up (4:05)
11. David J - 4 Hours (3:22) That bassist guy from Bauhaus covering a ClockDVA song.
12. X-Mal Deutschland - Augen Blick (3:46) had to throw some 4 A.D. in here, and they're good.
13. MOEV - crucify me 12" mix (5:29)
14. The Sisters Of Mercy - Gimme Shelter (5:54) Pre-breakup, pre-Mission. Pretentious? Preposterous.
15. Tones On Tail - War (3:18) - 1/2 of Bauhaus after they split.
16. VNV Nation - Dark Angel (4:57)
17. My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult - A Daisy Chain 4 Satan (6:22) You want danger, huh? I'll show you what danger is, baby. Saw the TKK when they toured in '91 for Sexplosion! and it was an amazing mix of sleaze, blasphemy, and groove. Shame subsequent shows didn't live up to that one.
18. KMFDM - Blood (Evil-Mix) (5:12)
19. Nitzer Ebb - Let Beauty Loose (2:24) EBM, but related to Goth via the Industrial / Kraftwerk / Front242 axis.
20. Apoptygma Berzerk - Soultaker (6:58)
21. Laibach - Das Spiel Ist Aus (4:23) Totalitarian kunst, and a vicious sense of humour. "...und du bist tot!"
22. Front 242 - Work 242 (6:39)
23. The Tear Garden - My Thorny Thorny Crown (3:54) Skinny Puppy and Edward Ka-Spel from The Legendary Pink Dots pull it all to a close.
I saw TKK on that same tour in SF - it is still my favorite show ever. The performance was fine, but it was the audience, which was ... varied, to say the least, that made the show.
