Awesome set list
I was contemplating writing in and making a request for “Christian Says” – it and “Go” I feel are Tones on Tail’s bestsongs and Christian is perfect for Darkwave
Well – you did it anyway, and as the closer. Awesome.
❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much for playing my Executive Slacks request, Matt! Such a criminally underrated band!
Now, how about the perfect Skinny Puppy song for a Christmas-themed Dark Wave? I am talking about-of course-“Dead of Winter.”
Nice mix this week; makes for a good Monday morning at the computer. Especially liked the Lucy Show, which IMAO is underplayed/appreciated. Here’s a few suggestions for next week, none of which I have heard you play before.
–James Ray & the Performance – “Mountain Voices” (1987)
— Mkultra (aka Fad Gadget) – “Immobilise (Foot Binding Trot Mix)” (1987)
— Frontline Assembly – “Concussion” (1988)
— Area – “With Louise” or “I’ll Gather Flowers” (1988)
For next week
The Cure – Halo
Joy Division – Failures
Depeche Mode – Black Celebration
The Cult – Narvana
Got some festive requests for next Sunday:
Kate Bush – Snowflake
Big Star – Jesus Christ
Black Tape For A Blue Girl – Chanukkah, Oh Chanukkah
Hello Matt, thanks for playing Ultraviolence. Is it too late to request something for Sunday night ? If not, then how about some more New Order – something like Mesh or Cries and Whispers.
Thank you.
Love to hear:
Push – The Cure
Subway – Peter Murphy
Lucretia My Reflection – Sisters of Mercy
She’s In Parties – Bauhaus
Thank you
