Are there any other fans of gothabilly here?

Frantic Flintstones I'll put the tag in on last fm and see what I think of the bands that play.

I probably just have to find the right bands. So far I like some of what I've heard on last fm radio.

What I like about it is the energy - you really must have an insane stamina to perform this sort of thing, it seems. Rhythmical insanity...

Most of these bands are just plain old rockabilly/psychobilly, too, not this "gothabilly" term. At least, I've never heard them described as that. The "-billy" suffix is plastered onto a lot of things though.

As for my source, I once wrote an exam paper on gothic music when I studied music, and obtained a copy of some article or another from an old magazine. I left that stuff at my mom´s when I moved out, though, so I can´t quote you the exact magazine and date, sorry. I know I also used scathe.co.uk a lot during writing that paper, but if it´s on there, I have no idea.

Of course I could be wrong.
