'80s gothic rock

This is a space dedicated only to original 1980's gothic rock. A place to explore musical, graphic and historical details related to the genre. Anything is acceptable as long as it is related to those early "gothic" bands OR others that evolved from them OR bands that keep playing with that '80s original goth style.
