Now these two bands might not be on your radar, they have this goth rock vibe that I haven't heard in sometime. These bands bring back the dark melodic music like Sisters of Mercy did back a number of years ago. I have been listening to The 69 Eyes' Angels album for a number of days and I just picked up the Best of compilation from H.I.M. They are a nice change of pace from the heavy stuff... I think unfortunatley metal fans see these kind of bands as for the Hot Topic crowd and that's too bad.
