71. 69 Eyes - "Death Of Darkness"

I’ve described their previous album as being Andrew Eldritch from the sisters fronting The Cult. Nothing much has changed and this similia is still completely valid. As they say if it isn’t broke don’t fix it, as this mega alt 80s mash-up works brilliantly. This is Goth as I wanted it to sound in my teenager head. It’s big, epic and utterly bombastic. Yes, there isn’t anything particularly revolutionary going on but when you’ve got anthems this anthemic and choruses this colossal it doesn’t really matter.
