- Sisters of Mercy - Floorshow. "I’m sure that for many metalheads, this Leeds band needs little to no introduction as they are so synonymous with the goth movement (despite never referring to themselves as the ‘g’ word) but if you’ve ever been heckled walking down the road because you have long hair and wear black by someone who doesn’t know the difference between thrash and goth, then the Sisters are partly to blame.
- Ghost Dance - Deeper Blue. A neat segway from the Sisters brings us nicely onto another Leeds band but this time one that is possibly less renowned outside of the scene.
- Pink Turns Blue - I Coldly Stare Out. We had the pleasure of supporting these underground post-punk legends at a show in Bristol a few years ago. I’d been desperate to see them live for a while, so sharing the stage was a bit of an honour for me.
- Bauhaus - Double Dare. Another band that I’m sure even diehard metal fans will have heard of but maybe haven’t deigned to listen to is Bauhaus, perhaps because of an aversion to the band’s arguably overplayed, near 10-minute long dancefloor-filler Bela Lugosi’s Dead.
- Celtic Frost – Rex Irae (Requiem) Surprise! We’re not actually going to start this list with a Gothic Metal song, but with one of its precursors. Celtic Frost’s Into the Pandemonium album from 1987 set the tone for all the Gothic Metal that followed, so let’s give them the honor they deserve.
- Paradise Lost – Gothic. Time to explore a song from one of the first true Gothic Metal albums: Gothic by Paradise Lost (yes, that really is the name).
- Type O Negative – Black No 1 (Little Miss Scare-All) Time to switch to a cleaner and more popular sound. Even if you didn’t know the genre before, there’s a good chance you’ve heard of the Gods of Gothic Metal: Type O Negative.
- The Vision Bleak – Into the Unknown. Most of the songs on this list were not exactly written yesterday. Although age does not really matter, I do want to point out that not all great Gothic Metal music is old.
