- True, they are really good and very gothic. The band lives in seclusion in some
- small town in Britain. If you don't know them get their "Retrospective" CD
- which has all their early stuff. Also the "live at the Dolce Vita" CD is very
- good. The Dolce Vita is a club in Lausanne (Switzerland) where a lot of
- "alternative" bands used to play. Don't know if the club still exists, anyways
- its the only decent place in that city.
-
- Both CDs are available in North America (at least here in Toronto). And yes
- they are unknown here. Haven't met anyone who knows them here. Their latest
- CD "Farewell to the Shade" is not as good but still worthwile buying.
-
- check it out all goth dudes out there.

- PS: the LP "the millpond years" has some sort of description of the band and
- a discography in it. Sorry I left it back in Geneva....
