The 80s was brilliant and the hair wasn't as bad as the 70s. For mine. as for the music, I think the silliness and crap music is unfairly dwelt on. That used to be the case for the 70s, so maybe the good 80s (ie the good music)  will be rehabilitated one day.
  I saw Shriekback live once. they were okay.  they used to bill themselves as the first ever Buddhist punk group, or something like that.  
  Does that clip count as fan fic? should Mills be told?

You're doing nothing for my 80s-hate.

Towards the end of the Shriekback video there's a bloke singing with what appears to be a nappy stuck on his face, something you don't see everyday...

Jim, yeah, that's the video.  They used to play it on MTV's 120 Minutes all the time.

It might not be "goth"... But I sure as hell played it a lot in the years I was a goth-industrial dj. LOL

I've always liked the song, myself. :)

It's that 80's stuff my goth friends like.
in other words - shit

Pffft...

Heh, I quite liked it.  A disapointing ealy tantalising glimpse of Nemesis the Warlock, which combined with the scrolls, skulls and goblets made me think we were in for a much bigger treat video wise.  Almost all of the stuff filmed for the band was daft.  More Nemesis the Warlock!  Torquemada should have come on and they had a big fight and stuff.

Yeah, song was fun in a gothy sot of way.

I reckon sone sort of goth metal- (not emo!)bordering on black metal would be a more fitting soundtrack for Nemesis

I'd be more self concious wearing those trousers.

I remember that song (having finally listened to the clip). It was alright, it.  
  How come it hasn't been mentioned before? There's a contrast with the umpteen times we've been told that Transvision Vamp did a song about Halo Jones
