Hey, readers. I got tagged by The House of Wyvern to do the Project Goth Playlist Tag. Here's a quick rundown of how the tag works.
- Suggest a band.
- How did you find the band?
- Additional Info: band's history, albums, etc.
- Suggested tracks.
The band that I picked for this tag is Midnight Calling. I found out about them via a Vampire Freaks band invite. The gothic rock/darkwave band was formed back in October 2016 by Yasmin and Scott. Their sound combines 80's darkwave ambience, post-punk guitar riffs and driving bass lines. Album is still in the works.
Two tracks that I suggest checking out are Howl to the Moon and Turn on the Light. These tracks give a feel for Midnight Calling's sound. If you enjoy reading my blog and want to show some love, consider donating to my ko-fi page. The link can be found in the header under "SUPPORT". Til next time.
Hey, readers. Back with more Etsy talk. The shop that I'll be talking about today is called Zombie Peepshow. It's a one person operation run by Kayla Stojek. I found out about it through The House of Wyvern, when they did a review of one of her shoe designs.
Man, these shoes are a...ma...zing! Kayla is giving Irregular Choice a run for their money. Her design influences come from goth, punk, horror and kawaii culture. Check out some examples of her kick-ass work below.
Again, a...ma...zing! If I saw this woman on the street, I'd probably throw my wallet at her. If out there footwear is your thing, then check out Zombie Peepshow. Til next time.
Note: I did not take any of the pictures shown in this blog post. All images are from Zombie Peepshow.
Hey, readers. Welcome to What's on the Tube? In this new blog segment, I'll be talking about and sharing the channels of lesser known goth youtubers. Gonna kick off this segment by listing the channels of fellow black goths that I like to follow.
- Angel Nightmare: On his channel, Angel does make-up tutorials in a satiric/comedic manner, composes/performs original music and more.
- Jess in King: Their channel focuses on the goth subculture from the black, disabled, geek, femme and queer perspective.
- Only On 2 Wheels: This channel is run by Anubis Bey (A.K.A The Gothic Tech Guy). What drew me to his channel were his videos on black goths in NYC. Another highlight of his channel is his Thor of Midgard web series. Quite entertaining.
- Gothic SoulFlower: Describing herself as a gothic bohemian, Gothic SoulFlower shares videos about fashion, make-up, tribal belly dancing and other things.
That concludes this episode of What's on the Tube? If you enjoy reading my blog and want to show some love, consider donating to my ko-fi page. The link can be found in the header under "SUPPORT". Til next time.
Hey, readers. I know it's been a while since I last shared anything about webcomics on here. But fear not. I'm here with my latest webcomic discovery. Came across it the other day on The Blogging Goth's facebook page.
The webcomic is called Roxy. It's about a woman who struggles to be an adult in the face of extreme social awkwardness. I've read through the first 10 pages and so far, I'm digging it. Definitely worth checking out.

Hey, readers. Happy 2019. As you can tell by the title, I have no idea what the year is going to hold for me. So for now, I'm just going to continue to focus on my blog and work on my podcast. To tide you over til my next post, have a meme.
If you have not watched Chilling Adventures of Sabrina on Netflix yet, you're missing out. Go watch it. Like right now. Seriously, watch it. I command you.

Hey, readers. Hope you're all doing well this holiday season. I'm doing pretty good. Got spoiled with a lot of The Nightmare Before Christmas stuff this year. Can't complain about that. XD
Time to take a close-up look at these goodies. Starting with the Sally doll.
Wasn't able to get Jack. So, until he can be obtained, Lord Vader will be keeping Sally company.
Next, are these earring sets, a bottle of black nail polish and a pack of glue-on nails. I'm not really into glue-on nails. So, I'll have to find a different use for them.
My favorite out of the bunch was this Zero sweater.
In non-The Nightmare Before Christmas gift news, I got a pair of dress boots. Now, I can stop relying on my winter boots for those occasions when I decide to dress-up.
Lastly, is this Pan's Labyrinth DVD.
