Pagan Love Songs turned 15 this year on August 27th. Time flies. I remembered drooling over the photo gallery at Nightmarezone.de while participating in the Deathrock/Post-Punk revival in NYC around 2002. So when I received my copy of the first Pagan Love Songs compilation, the discs seldom left the CD tray in my PC. It became a treasured possession, and soundtrack to the events I was working on that were in turn inspired by the initial exploits of the brothers Thyssen in Germany.
The third and final Pagan Love Songs Antitainment Compilation continues to curate an fantastic collection of Post-Punk, Gothic Rock and Wave with new and classic bands. Classic bands such as The Chameleons, Rosetta Stone, and Red Temple Spirits. New bands such as Ash Code, Ascetic, The Devil and The Universe, Phosphor, She Past Away, and Wires and Lights (featuring their debut). Also included is a new Frank The Baptist song “Ashes Ashes”, off of their upcoming LP, and dancefloor staples such as “The Porter” by Dream Affair, and “Ravage” by Skeleton Hands.
These Pagan Love Songs discs are the Mick Mercer Gothic Rock compilations of our generation, and there are only 1000 copies of Vol. III available. Order now!
