Dark Entries: Goth Radio

2-23-19 - THE BEST OF 2018!

Strap in, because this one is a long one. We looked back at some of the best Goth, Darkwave, Deathrock, Industrial, Post-Punk, and Doom Metal releases of 2018. Plus, Donna Purge stops by for a long chat! We reminisce about the old Columbia Goth scene, talk video games, and she shames me about some of the classic '80's films I've never seen. Enjoy!
