69 Eyes

The 69 Eyes music was described as mix of the gloominess of gothic rock with guitar-powered rock'n'roll.[3] Their music is influenced by other artists such as The Doors, Elvis Presley, Guns 'N' Roses, Billy Idol, The Lords of the New Church, The Misfits and The Sisters of Mercy. [4] The term "goth'n'roll" was used to describe their style. Formed in Helsinki, Finland in September 1989 the band originally played glam metal inspired music. But by 1997, the band began to take more influence from gothic rock, horror punk, and gothic metal and signed to the European Roadrunner Records.

Scary Bitches

Scary Bitches is a deathrock band formed in UK by Alma Geddon and DEADri Ransiid in 1998.
Theatrical designer Dean Blunkell designed the bizarre costumes that pull their image as 'Lesbian Vampyres from Outer Space' into sharp focus, and complement their strange, bizarre, hard hitting, but amusing lyrics about vampyres, werewolfes, strange children, necrophilia & cannibalism that have been described as being in the style of the 'Rocky Horror Picture Show' but with a more modern & vindictive sense of humour'.

Rosa Crux

A martial and apocalyptic atmosphere! The band brings us directly to the heart of things. Obsessional, never brutal, Rosa Crvx explore the questions of life and death, of the anguishes and the human's fears. They face the darkness; at the edge of the abyss, their steps progress on an unknown way which exists in the dark and opens to the light when we understand that the only solution is in the acceptance of mysteries. Rosa Crvx reached us down in the depths of the soul...
