This
time Cameron and Dr.Sanders finish their retrospective on The Sisters of
Mercy. This shows the ups and downs of the band as they release
Floodland, Vision Thing, and make some weighty promises as time marches on. We seek to answer the question...why is there still no new album in
2026?

It's time to revisit one the best known goth bands of all time...The Sisters of Mercy. I previously covered them about 10 years ago and thought it would be interesting to take a fresh look at a band with a legacy unlike many others. Led by Andrew Eldritch with the assistance of both man and machine, it's a journey both unique and winding as the creative control and rockstar lifestyles shape the way they interact with the world. Cameron and I take a look at their formation and up to the release of First and Last and Always in 1985 with a little bit of the continuing history.

Our new intro and outro song is "Boris Karloff's Alive" from the Gremlins E.P. by Dr.Sanders.

This weeks subject is spooky cartoons. It was a backup topic as Cameron and Noah ending up being preoccupied this week. I sorta went in and out of the subject as the show went on and took some comments from the audience. So it's a kinda strange episode as far as structure. It's a bit of a ramble. Hope you enjoy regardless.

It's finally time for GothCast to cover David Bowie. One of the most influential and unique artists of all time, Bowie's career was truly unusual. Today we break down the beginnings of his life and his first two albums from the 1960's....both called David Bowie.

With this episode we hope to celebrate the late director David Lynch. He created some of the most beautiful and haunting images to ever grace the screen as well as an eclectic blend of different art and music. Take this trip with us to the mysterious and entrancing world of David Lynch.
