Hi guys,

Ok I'll start the ball rolling, shall I? If you're into Blues harp and / or alternative music, go to: www.harmonicaman.com and check out the talents of Juzzy Smith. He's won the Australian Blues Harmonica championships two years in a row, or more, and is one talented person; is a multi-instrumentalist and singer, also.

Ok, who's next?....post on.

Anna/Varney from Sopor Aeternus. A wonderful dark and emotive German Goth band, probably the most Gothic band of all. Varney has a phobia of performing live and all of the concerts are done in an empty arena.. he writes and creates the ideas and characters, for all of the band's work, as well as playing numerous instruments and tolerating what he hates most promotion, as it means dealing with people which he finds acutely painful..know how you feel mate..Varney has created the most influential Gothic band ever to surface in the genre. His music reaches into the darkest recesses of your soul and makes you confront that which you would rather ignore.

Sounds damn cool, to put it quite shallowly, but it does intrigue me. Is there anywhere online I can listen to it?

www.SoporAeternus.de but I'm not sure if they still have the mp3 facility..they are atmospheric and intrigued by vampires, a band after my own heart.
