Often times these themes are combined into installations that feature antique tones, reminiscent of vintage photography. This establishes a surreal a comfortable quality, and suggests notions of memory and simplicity, and then formally unifies the antithetical objects within the piece. I call this "creating a rift", and by doing so, leaves the subject matter open to personal interpretation and introspection.

Roughhausen aka Jeff Stoddard started out playing guitar in local punk rock bands in British Columbia Canada and then relocated to Vancouver. It was during that time he met up with and eventually formed a band, with Rhys Fulber, Chris Peterson and John McRae. That band, Will, released two full length albums on the London based label Third Mind Records. Both albums were well received and spawned the minor club hit, "Father Forgive".

First place in the National Finals of the Marshall Ultimate Band Contest and have amassed well over 20,000 fans worldwide. The band has a vibrant and active internet community surrounding them, meaning that wherever they play they will have support. Their influences are PJ Harvey, Alter Bridge & The Smashing Pumpkins. Lisa (the vocalist) is the face and epic voice of Weak of Wanting. Though she looks sweet and innocent she is known for her powerful vocal range and haunting timbre. She spent a lot of her early singing career in punk bands and since leaving them, has spent many years training and refining her vocal style which is now unique and beautiful. Her writing style is almost sub conscious and is on a very emotional level but despite this she is a very professional musician and remains humble about her looks and rising fame, she speaks directly to her fans all the time and feels very strongly that the band should take the time to thank people for the support whenever they can

Be My Enemy’s debut album ―This Is The New Wave‖, is 10 tracks of technometal every bit as brutal as the riot-gearclad police that adorn the cover.

Goth Subculture and the newbie problem by Lady of Sorrows We all want to be accepted; it’s a fact of life for all human beings. What we share in common in the Goth subculture is that fact that most of us were outcasts while we were growing up and we were often picked on in school. That brings me to one of the biggest ironies in our scene; some of us after having become accepted members forget what it was like to be an outcast, ―the freak‖ or ―the weirdo‖. So in turn we look down upon new arrivals to the Goth scene and we start treating newbies as outcasts. Some of us go as far as to be rude to them and start calling them derogatory names, accusing them of not being ―Goth enough‖ or just plain treating them like they shouldn’t even be around us. Now I do understand that many of us are socially awkward and we do not mean to be unwelcoming to others. We may be shy or not even realize what we are doing is unwelcoming behavior.

ous and be distrustful of the actions of men say ―hi‖ to a new person at a club or Goth who enter the scene solely to ―pick up on social gathering. Let us not get snotty when Goth chicks‖. In that case that would be okay someone new ―gets it all wrong‖. Being Goth to be distrusting. But to treat everybody auto- is not like a ultra secret organization that we matically as having an ulterior motive is have to get initiated into.

In doing so, the person who once said something against our scene is now taking an initiative and making strides to be contributing members to our scene – let’s forgive and forget. Why are we hanging on to negative thoughts? Is it truly good for us to do that?

Remember we aren’t all perfect and we definitely aren’t strictly ―Gothic‖ 24/7 no matter how much we claim we are -- seriously! Let us treat others with the same respect as we wish others to treat us as. Let us not be the asshole(s) that ruined it for us back in high school. We are better people than they are. It is truly wonderful to see people grow and become contributing members to the scene.

Gothic Charm School: An Essential Guide for Goths and Those Who Love Them An essential, fully illustrated guidebook to day-to-day Goth living There's more to being a Goth than throwing on some black velvet, dyeing your hair, and calling it a day (or a night). How do you dress with morbid flair when going to a job interview? Is there such a thing as growing too old to be a Goth? How do you explain to your grandma that it's not just a phase? Jillian Venters, a.k.a. "the Lady of the Manners," knows how to be strange and unusual without sacrificing politeness and etiquette. In Gothic Charm School, she offers the quintessential guide to dark decorum for all those who have ever searched for beauty in dark, unexpected places, embraced their individuality, and reveled in decadence . . . and for families and friends who just don't understand.

Goth: Vamps and Dandies Beginning by examining its roots in early Gothic and Romantic literature, Goth: The Dark Subculture presents a decade-by-decade analysis of the pivotal Goth milestones as they occurred. Starting with the form’s emergence as a 1970s counterculture phenomenon, defined by classic clubs like the Batcave, the book moves through Goth's 1980s invasion of the arena-rock scene via bands such as the Cult and the Sisters of Mercy. It then concludes with the subculture's enormous impact on film, music, and television during the 1990s, as epitomized by the creative output of musicians and filmmakers from Marilyn Manson to Tim Burton. Author Gavin Baddeley even gives a glimpse of Goth's ongoing metamorphosis into "Cybergoth." He also documents the widely attended Goth festivals, including Treffen, M’era Luna, Carnival of Souls, and the Whitby Gothic Weekend, examines the exciting evolution of Goth fashions and footwear, and explores the scene’s decadent philosophy of style over substance. All in all, this illuminating book offers a guided tour of one of the world’s most influential and provocative youth subcultures.

What is Goth? Music, Makeup, Attitude, Apparel, Dance, and General Skullduggery What Is Goth? is a humorous, selfdeprecating look at Goth culture from the inside out. Imagine The Preppy Handbook colliding with Charles Addams. Then add a lot more melancholy and a lot more spooky. What Is Goth? dispels the false stereotypes and reinforces the true ones surrounding Goths and Goth culture. "To the mundane," Voltaire writes, "Goths are weird, black-clad freaks who are obsessed with death; they are sad all of the time. Take a closer look at the Goth scene, however, and you will find a rich tapestry of ideas and practices and a menagerie of colorful characters. Oh, dear. I said 'colorful.'" Yes, Goths are pale, wear black clothing, love black makeup (on men and women), mope, listen to real downer music, and perfect the art of living in a perpetual state of ennui and melancholy. But there's so much more to being Goth. Goths come from all walks of life. Many are teenagers who live with their parents; others are doctors, lawyers, musicians, and so on. Most Goths are highly literate and creative, but all real Goths have to dress the part. In other words, "Abandon all hope ye who enter a Goth club in khakis!" Eerily illustrated, What Is Goth? is the perfect book for any Goth, Goth wannabe, or "mundane" who is hopelessly confused by all the gloom.

Charles R Bristow- Freelance Fantasy and Pinup artist (aka Captain Frogger) I am a self taught artist born and raised in Pennsylvania. A love of comic books,sexy pinup and fantasy art,hard rock music and movies has fueled my vision and given me a direction. After my high school art courses I focused on the things about my work that made me happiest,and through trial and error began to form my style. I love the beauty of the female form, and all of my girls share the same elements- a sense of flirty fun and a slighty dark and alternative edgeiness. Im not trying to change the world with my work, just make it a little sexier. I create my pieces as 9x12 Mixed media paintings on Bristol Board- a combination of markers,acrylic paints and colored pencils. I currently create custom commission pieces,tattoo designs and sell digital prints of my art. I am active


in the online community and design custom images for use on personal blogs,fanpages and online profiles. I also work with companies that produce rubberstamps,mousepads,cellphone cases among other items. I love what I do and wouldnt be where I am today if not for the love and support of my family,friends and ms.Desiree.
