[Goth LIVE] This should not be confused with Zinny’s Walpurgis events! This is an occasional event put on by the boss-man of Urga (I believe). It is looking tasty with Neurotic Doll and Agent Murder crawling out of their crypts, Destruct System, Aural Vampire and more. A special note on one band: 2nd Effect. This [...]
It’s amazing to think that just two years ago, the Golden Week Goth pickings were pretty slim. Sure, there were parties, but lots of Goths had joined the mindless hordes returning to their home towns. But last year, things were definitely chirpier and this year the number of events hint at general insanity for Goths, [...]

A mix of darkness featuring mainly visual acts, but Blood is doing a lot of work sifting through that scene for bands with grit - which is why their events are here. The truth is that as the Gothic-Lolitas grow up, they won’t be satisfied with silent hand-waving and will want to do things like [...]

King Ghidorah (キングギドラ) is considered Godzilla’s arch-nemisis by some and one seriously heavy-duty bad-ass in the Godzilla universe only being beaten when Godzilla, Mothra, and Rodan tagged together against him. He’s also got three heads - he’s pretty Baal-esque himself, being a three-headed being of ultimate power. With that kind of title, this event must [...]
