Spencer, I met JAMC as compared to, like Richard Davis or something. Obv The Cure are more goth than JAMC.

once micro-____ hits a paradoxical micro-industrial phase itll all just implode on itself probably. "my cock's on fire" (reinhard voigt remix) etc.

Did anybody else initially read that as "Handjob feat Vanessa Briggs"?

Pretty soon it will have its own section in XLR8R.
By the way Jesus and Mary Chain are so so so Goth, read the lyrics to Darkland.
"Happy when it rains" I mean come on..
doesn't mean its bad, just means its goth

Have I mentioned that Jost remix of Turner's "After Work"? That's micro-goth, no doubt about it.

Bands like the Mary Chain have a pure rock'n'roll heritage, whereas Goths seem to be some weird hybrid of rock and cabaret. I think it's the stageyness that is the difference. The Darkness are much more goth than Joy Divsion.

so, are The Birthday Party "goth" ? i would assume so..but i really have no clue as to what their live shows were like. they seem to fit the definition of rock meets cabaret, though

Isolee- "I Owe You" : I don't know, I hear some Cure in this song. Maybe those strings conjure Disintegration or something. Other Isolee songs fit as well, but this came to mind first.
Psychic TV- "Jigsaw" and "Horror House" : listen to "Jigsaw" and then listen to "Love Is Stronger Than Pride"
Superpitcher- "Tell Me About It" : lots of his stuff, per mentions above
Skinny Puppy- "Deep Down Trauma Hounds" : I'm kind of wondering if this is maybe THE original micro-goth track: the bubbly opening synths, then the kick drum, then the washes, then the deconstruction...I used to drop this in dance sets, but always had to quickly abandon ship because Ogre's vocals go off the deep end a few minutes in and it tends to clear the floor

Them early club mixes of Soft Cell you mention are incredibly great/evil/filthy-sounding (in more ways than one).

Where Marc Almond does sort of sneak in is with the Hacker remix of "Soul on Soul".

I guess I'm hung up a bit on the muscularity of "Tottentanz". Definitely dark, with some very goth Middle Eastern compositional structure going on (at least that's what I'm hearing in the track), but I was thinking more melancholy than melodrama or muscularity. But then again all three is pretty much Creatures in a nutshell, or Blue Sunshine, so ok- I'm with you.
