This episode covers our thoughts on Vampires and our favorite versions of the creatures of the night.
This is the first episode of a new format for GothCast that we streamed live yesterday. It is a somewhat lighthearted “Goth broadcast” that covers subjects we enjoy. It’s a less structured than the in-depth histories I do on the previous GothCast Podcast (that you can stream most places) as we’re going for more of a talk show set-up that allows us to interact with everyone more directly.
Goth 101 – 45 Grave
In this episode of Goth 101 I break down the decades long career of 45 Grave. Every albums and the stories behind them.
The Lords of the New Church – Retrospective
It’s been a long time since I’ve put out a long retrospective like this…well here it is. The first podcast I’ve done that is also a video. I like how this turned out, but I have a lot of ideas going forward that will make it a bit different. I hope you enjoy finally getting a new podcast. We’re working on some more already.
We cover the often underrated and very misunderstood Lords of the New Church. A supergroup with members of The Dead Boys and The Damned. Truly a unique band with a very unusual tone .We cover the Debut Album [1982], Is Nothing Sacred? [1983], The Method To Our Madness [1984], and Hang On [2003].
I Played Castlevania on Nintendo 64
I haven’t been chipping away at much larger content, but I did do a little streaming on my channel. I played Castlevania Legacy of Darkness on Nintendo 64.
I kinda feel like I’m waiting for the next project to inspired me lately. There’s some great music and stuff coming out, but I haven’t really been struck by anything to really create lately. Maybe I’m having some writer’s block. Who knows?
Goth 101 – Bauhaus
This is the video I’ve been working on for quite a while and I’m very happy that it is done! I’ve always wanted to do a video like this which is more like a video version of the GothCast Podcast. I hope you enjoy it.

Anime Vampires and Steampunk – Dig Me Up
I actually somewhat enjoy making this Dig Me Up videos. It’s been giving me a chance to cover some of the random things I would never normally cover in depth. I thought they might end up being a little bit of a drag, but so far that isn’t the case
The Legacy of Anne Rice, Tim Burton & Goofy Cyberpunk
It’s the end of the month, you know what that means. You get to see me talk to a camera about thoughts I had over the last calendar month. This time, IN THE SNOW!

Dig Me Up: Munsters, Addams, and Shadows – November 2021
This is officially my attempt to remain more visible to everyone who enjoys my content. I tend to disappear for many months at a time to work on things and this series should make that happen less. Once a month is what I’m shooting for. Mostly a proof of life. Enjoy
Dr.Sanders – Carlot Salesman [Music Video]
This video is sort of strange because we recorded this live with us in that room so what you see in the video is actually what we’re playing, but we also did a few overdubs afterward. It gives it a unique sound and it’s cool to be able use the footage of us really performing along with all of the other random stuff throughout. This song was on our album Patch Overlap, but this single version is completely unique. It has been added as a bonus track to Patch Overlap on Bandcamp, but will be included on another release coming out very soon. As always I hope you enjoy!
Also if you purchased Patch Overlap previously on Bandcamp you can re-download the album and get this version of the track free. It has been added a bonus track that is exclusive to the digital version. It’s not on the cassette version as it was recorded way after those were made. Maybe if there’s ever a second printing it will be included.

Phantoms: The Rise of Deathrock from the LA Punk Scene Book Review
It’s a book, it has words. In this video I talk about those words with my own words. I think there’s a word for that…a review? Probably not.
Here’s where the book exists:
