0:25-5:13
FEARING (Santa Cruz)
Behind the Mask
— This local band was amazing live, opening up for the epic band She Past Away this past week. Retro-goth with intense vocals and lyrics.

5:14-10:40
PINK TURNS BLUE (Germany)
Tomorrow Never Comes
— Pink Turns Blue have been around for 32 years playing moody goth-heavy darkwave with the most romantic lead singer ever. This album, The AERDT - Untold Stories, was released in 2016, and they finally tour in September.

10:40-15:22
DOWNLOAD (cEvin Key project) (Vancouver)
Takanadobabble (take 2)
— Support cEvin Key by buying his new 7"! Bro is one of the masterminds of Skinny Puppy, one of the most influential bands in this scene. They are gods.

15:23-20:12
JONATHAN BREE (Aukland)
You're So Cool
— This album released a year ago, but he is FINALLY touring 'cause dude is hailing from Aukland, and this is one of my favorite songs, ever.

20:13-24:45
SHE PAST AWAY (Turkey/Greece)
Yukseliyor Deniz
— One of the best modern goth bands, the legendary lead singer is equipped with a unique low and deep vocal. He breathes and you die. I was excited to see their show last week completely sold out; the bay area represented well.

25:04-30:46
THE HOWLING FOG (Adelaide)
The Needle's Falling
— Oof, this first single from an upcoming album is heart-wrenching in all the best ways. The vocalist is just incredible.

30:46-34:03
POLYCYTHEMIA (Russia)
Больничные койки
— Russian duo is mysterious, hailing from the middle of nowhere and recreating the gloom lined with unique, somehow joyful AND melancholy melodies.

34:04-38:19
BOY HARSHER (MA)
Fate
— One of my favorite bands, and they are a duo from Western Mass! They are dance synth with a very dark edge; and they shine in their instrumentals.

38:20-43:32
FACS (Chicago)
In Time
— Chicago always has an influence. This one is a weird, unexpected, stark and often minimalist, industrial-influenced post-punk with a Chicago-influenced avante-garde edge.

44:03-47:18
THOUGH LEADERS (Oakland)
Unless Awake
— Romantic post-punk saturated with shimmering melody created by LEGENDARY musicians in the Bay Area.

47:18-52:26
DEEP CROSS (Austin)
Somewhere Below
— I wasn't expected the vocals to go where it did, portions in this raspy metal-style.

52:27-56:22
DRAB MAJESTY (LA)
Oxytocin
— The more popular band of the bunch, a duo from Los Angeles creating a frothy new wave pop.

56:23-END
BROKEN COLUMN (Montreal)
Nothing
— Oh those French poets from the north.
