The Feniad Book Tour – London

A familiar venue in Aces and Eights, but a very different style of event last night. Simon Satori was reading from his latest book ‘The Feniad’, interspersed with poems and songs from the Hi-Reciprocity repertoire, whilst I contributed some passages from ‘The Dark Scene 500’, followed by a Q&A hosted by Dr.Embers.
 
I also filled in the gaps with some of the songs from The Dark Scene 500, and here’s what made it in.
 

The Opening

Underworld – And I Will Kiss
Throbbing Gristle – Hot On The Heels Of Love
 

The Interval

Einstürzende Neubauten – Sabrina
Rome – To Die Among Strangers
Current 93 – Oh Coal Black Smith
 

The Aftershow

Depeche Mode – Ice Machine
Death In June – The Calling Mk2

Go_A – SHUM
VNV Nation – Chrome
Front 242 – U-Men
The Young Gods – Envoye
Lebanon Hanover – Gallowdance
TRAITRS – Thin Flesh
O.Children – Dead Disco Dancer
Paradise Lost – Say Just Words

The Terminates Here 365

Whenever I think back to The Dark Scene 500, my thoughts often turn to the songs that didn’t make it in. Many fell foul of the ‘3 per band’ limit, others were good songs that simply got dropped to balance out the chapters, and many didn’t fit the stylistic scope of the book. So here’s the follow-up. The Terminates Here 365. One song for every day of the year – no rules for inclusion except I think it’s worth a listen.
