I'm also into the industrial, darkwave, darkrave shit. Puts me in heat, especially when naked in a room with it on playing. :D

....and oh.... Rob Zombie

I don't know what Goth Metal is but if it's good loud I'll spin it and give it a hear

How about Lacuna Coil, Jack Off Jill, Babes in Toyland? i guess Evanescence is too popular to count, but that voice!

Status: offline 		My goth music ranges from Phantom of The Opera to the sound tracks of End of Days, The Vampire Lastat, and American Were Wolf in Paris. The Mortal Combat CD's also have an interesting varity of goth, metal, and techno. I also have the soundtract to Dark City.

Back to Goth Rock/Metal, I happen to own the Three CD collection "Monsters Of Goth." http://www.amazon.com/Monsters-Goth-CD-Boxed-Set/dp/B000001JKD

Yes, I'm also a Manson and NIN fan.

However, I still question what makes Echo and The Bunny Men gothic. I am a fan of them but they sound more alternitive rock than anything else. I can see how some of there lyrics draw in a gothic crowed but that still does not make them a goth band.

Back to Sound Tracks:

I also have the tracks to "Brain Scan" and "House of a 1000 Corpses" Also, how can I fail to mention "Lost Boys?" How can anyone call themselves a Goth Music fan and not own the sound track to Lost Boys?

I could list more but this sample of my collection shoud suffice of groups and sound tracks for you to enjoy.

Metal is the only music worth playing! And one day, our little band will progress from playing blues over and over (brand new drummer, rhythm guitarist with no sense of rhythm, and me who can play rhythm but struggles with lead a bit) and get into it!

What a shame that would be lol.

Funilly enough I recently heard a learned program on radio4 discussing metal music, me and all the other mad oldies were listening, and it mentioned some obscure chord that the music may be.based on Cant recall what it was tho'
So blues three chords
Metal one
Go for it I say.

Most interested to know which obscure chord metal might be based on though - lots of people use a lot of Em but there's no need to really - similar with blues, one can play it off anywhere (providing one has enough dexterity, or additional fingers).

Status: offline 		Em = E minor ? No thats a basic chord.
This one would be say E minor with altered intervals
so E minor chord notes  are E G B D F# A C 
Keep the E and G they define the basic minor mode and then play around with the others.
I am not a good enough musician to explain how.
D# = E flat might be starter.

Status: offline 		Yes it is. I looked it up in Wikipaedia and then had a fiddle on my piano.
A major scale example is
basic C chord = C E G
Tritone = C E F#
The point is that the scale progresses in whole tones
C D E F# G# A# etc not C D E F G A B C
How that translates into metal I haven't a clue.
E scale more common for a guitar is
E F# G# A# B# =(C) D E

A well known example in a popular tune is  Take the A train.
Dah...de da da dee.. Dah = tritone
Moon River actually contains two of the buggas. but the feel of the song,same with A train is not  "whole toneish"
