I grew up in the 80s but Pop music was never my thing. I enjoyed listening to dark alternative and progressive music. When Sirius Satellite radio announced that they would do a three hour show each Sunday night, I was elated. I didn't get to listen too often because the show came on late (10 - 1). Then I bought the Stiletto and it can record shows. I have been listening each week now. While listening, I have found that Christopher the Minister, the current DJ, plays the same bands and songs each week. This blog will present alternatives, accept suggestions, and produce a weekly playlist. I am working on creating a rating system for the level of darkness that the show contains. The goal of this blog is to help make the Dark Wave show the best of the best on a weekly basis.
Christopher plays one Lords of the New Church song just about each week, and that is what inspired the title of this blog. There have to be more songs by them than just Russian Roulette (even though its a good song).
Things I wish:
More diverse bands.
More diverse songs.
Playlists posted online somewhere.
Other band profiles
NOTE: I have some back dated playlists that I will start with. Then we will move forward
About Me
- LatinTeacher
- I grew up in Metairie, LA and lived in actual New Orleans for 12 years. The day that I turned 30, I moved to New Jersey and then to Easton, PA 4 years ago. As luck would have it, I was in New Orleans when Katrina approached and evacuated to Jackson, MS. Other than that, I am a Latin and history teacher at a small, independent school in NJ. I miss New Orleans a lot, think about it all the time, and try to go there whenever the work schedule allows.
