Eldritch’s Iggy worship was undeniable, as were his subtler undertones of The Doors, Lou Reed, and the swagger of ’70s hard rock. That was lost on many.
Now this is why I like this band. :wink:

"Dystopian . . .stentorian gravitas...brobdignagianism...ravenous baritone" - it's like reading the NME back in t'day.

My favourite phrase from it though is rather more prosaic (must be catching) : "Goth Loaf" :lol:

Goth Loaf indeed.... must make a recipe, but surely it'd be a pie :lol: :lol:
Very good piece.
I have said before that Floodland is the closest thing I have ever come to a religious experience - and I mean it in just that sense. The choral domination and Messianic intensity of TC always made the 14 year old me feel like I was in some kind of rite, in awe and a tiny bit affraid of it's power.
Course, just when I was 14 mind.... :innocent:

Iggy and Bowie ripping off Led Zeppelin lol, The Mish added a bit of Thin Lizzy to the mix too.
