Gothic Rock

69 Eyes

The 69 Eyes music was described as mix of the gloominess of gothic rock with guitar-powered rock'n'roll.[3] Their music is influenced by other artists such as The Doors, Elvis Presley, Guns 'N' Roses, Billy Idol, The Lords of the New Church, The Misfits and The Sisters of Mercy. [4] The term "goth'n'roll" was used to describe their style. Formed in Helsinki, Finland in September 1989 the band originally played glam metal inspired music. But by 1997, the band began to take more influence from gothic rock, horror punk, and gothic metal and signed to the European Roadrunner Records.

Rosa Crux

A martial and apocalyptic atmosphere! The band brings us directly to the heart of things. Obsessional, never brutal, Rosa Crvx explore the questions of life and death, of the anguishes and the human's fears. They face the darkness; at the edge of the abyss, their steps progress on an unknown way which exists in the dark and opens to the light when we understand that the only solution is in the acceptance of mysteries. Rosa Crvx reached us down in the depths of the soul...

Kirlian Camera

Kirlian Camera was founded by the keyboardist/vocalist Angelo Bergamini in Parma, Italy in Spring 1980. The band really was born in 1979, called Suicide Commando, but this name was dropped for the existence of a namesake band. So, when Bergamini started to interest to paranormal phenomena, he knew about a special device invented by Semion Kirlian to take photos of the aura of the human body and from this took the name of the group, suggested by Mauro Montacchini.
