Mainstream gothic wannabe. mmmm ... *kill

Good classification for this style : cheesy gothic.

Crappy youtube encoding doesn't do it justice. I nearly wept the first time I saw this cut-scene play out.

As a side note, Lulu is my ideal woman. Could be why I'm dating a half-Japanese girl with a gothic sense of fashion (yum...)

Gothic beauty (and I don't just mean Vibeke).

The band's distant split with Morten was huge, but they survived it somehow (and with authority, even). The recent split with Vibeke though, is going to prove much more difficult for the band to overcome. A good first step would be ditching the stand-in they have now, and getting a new full time extreme vocalist with some talent (or use Thorsen again!).

There's also live Widow's Tour footage on youtube, btw.

rasch it's 2:40 in the fucking morning and I am drunk and high on cocaine and I just wanted to let you know that you are awesome and I am proud of you! Fuck yea you Gothic looking snake salesman.

I like them. Your link was to the wrong queue, that's all. Great music. I'm getting more and more into that sparse acoustic arrangement stuff. There was a time and place for progressive and arena rock. Now it's root music. That's where it's at. Like your country "gothic" theme. Excellent.

Too Harsh? Should I change it? I really like them and they seem to be wonderful songwriters in their own right, but it's undeniable.

In reply to this comment by snoozedoctor:
Yeah, you fail as a pimp, but succeed as a critic. I'll be looking for more of them. Had your boat out?

I think they both stand on their own merits. Nicholson's take goes perfectly with the baroque gothic style Burton was going for in 1989, and Ledger works great for Nolan's uber realism.

Nicholson's take is getting a bad rap. One criticism people level at Jack's performance is that his joker is "too much like Jack Nicholson", but that's why he was cast! Nobody in Hollywood's ever had a more famously threatening grin than Jack Nicholson.

As for the writing of the character, I prefer the Nolan version of the bat mythos, but he's still not making the Batman movies I'd make if a genie granted me the director's chair. I'd make it a lot more low key and make Batman far more self-reliant. Four people knew his identity by the end of Begins. Dumb. Parts of The Dark Knight belong in a Bond movie... the cellphone sonar and the airplane skyhook stunt come to mind.

I also really wish they'd just left Two-Face out of it. They totally wasted Batman's second-best enemy. Should have had the Joker scar him in this one and then maybe cap the movie with a hint that he is going to be the villain in the next one. You could still have the entire arc without making the last half-hour of the movie seem unfocused and sort of too much of a good thing.

About that baroque gothic style, I could never understand why to this day so many people in the media cite The Dark Knight Returns as the inspiration for the 1989 Batman film. Perhaps the sales numbers inspired it, but in tone and style they are as far apart as any other two interpretations of the mythos.

Later than late. An old dog can learn new tricks. I never would have guessed I'd be listening to this Gothic symphonic metal stuff. You broaden my musical horizons. Some killer guitarists in those bands too.

Maybe it's just me, but I have a hard time finding the "power" or "metal" in this.

well I think that song is MORE Gothic Metal than anything But krypteria is Power Metal

Gosh, you're so Gothic:

I mean that in a good way, BTW.

Interesting combination of clasical dance and gothic metal..
The red dress of the singer is kinda awkward I think:)

Interesting I want to play to be Gothic Granny who loves Morbid Stuff...
