Goth Rock

Ah, Specimen.

No, you see, Specimen was the name of the band.

I have a couple of their vinyl LPs, as well as a now-coveted bat-shaped EP they released.

Goth was stupid back then. And it still is to this day. The singer had some pipes on him. But nothing makes up for a bad concept, a fruitloop of a front man and lots of garrish-looking makeup as quickly as a guy who knows his way up and down the frets.

While the guitar-playing dude looks like something out of the original black-and-white Dracula movie, he can hammer-down with the best of the still undiscovered guitar heroes.

Love it, I do.

Later
