Come on, nail me to the cross in the darkest alley I said, the Prince of Peace doesn't have to know about it Aw, say three Hail Marys, turn around, pray about it Aw, come on, nail me to the cross in the darkest alley

Goth Listening Club Day #50: Light Asylum - In Tension

"I don't know why the albums are so hard to find, because Light Asylum is still actively touring and raving and being (over?)played in goth clubs. Believe it or not, the only four videos on the official YouTube channel are the entire In Tension album release. It includes the iconic single Dark Allies, which shows off Shannon Funchess' powerful performance style. (And the video shows off her touch of madness and shamelessness, which every decent artist needs.)"

LISTEN ON: YOUTUBE / SPOTIFY / APPLE MUSIC

As she lies dying in a dark alleyway Her lips, ruby red And her eyes were morning green But she whispered to me "Come closer, come closer" And as I knelt down beside with her dying breath She said to me "I'll wait for you, forever and ever, and ever, and ever"

Not to be overdramatic but “We are haunting the hunting” Is one of the coolest lyrics in a goth song I’ve ever heard in my life.

Light Asylum is in my top ten (and should be in yours too if you like black Industrial artists).

last year when i posted this people melted down and went out of their way to misinterpret the purpose of this exercise and just say insane racist shit; the goal is to get you to reflect on whether or not you engage with black music and black art and artists, and if you seem to avoid doing so, to ask yourself why that is

if you would like, feel free to share the song/artist in the tags to share recs! always easier to begin or continue diversifying your listening habits with suggestions :)
