The Goth Challenge! Day 5 - Local bands

So, I will continue now with the challenge :D
I was somehow busy these days and I had a shooting yesterday, so I´m happy :D

Is there a local Goth band or group in your area?
A band? Not really. I mean, not around where I live.
But there are some great bands in Slovakia.
I should mention The Last Days of Jesus. They are our pride :D They played at WGT, too. 

Then Hysteric Helen is a great band. I love their music. 

And Ľahká Múza has an very interesting sound.

Then maybe The Stranger´s Diary and Street Spirit are good bands, too.

And there are more industrial bands, but that´s not really what I listen to :D

Goths in Slovakia

Slovakia is the country where I live. Many people don´t even know about this little country, and many people mistake it for Slovenia.
This year the Ice Hockey Championship were here, so hopefully, people will know about our existence :D

But I don´t want to talk about hockey, but about goth subculture here.
I would say, that the only goth scene is in our capital city- Bratislava. There are regularly Batcave Parties, and some other events too.
There have there even some goth and alternative shops. And of course, there are more goths.
But unfortunately I´m not that lucky, and I live at the other end of Slovakia - Košice (Cassovia in latin...I like this word :D).
We may be the second biggest town, but we still are nothing compared to Bratislava.
And a goth scene here? Not really.
We don´t have clubs, we don´t really have events or concerts, we don´t have shops...and to be honest...I saw here just maybe two goths...and one of them is me. :D
Ok, there were some industrial concerts (or something like that) - Skinny Puppy, Laibach or The Young Gods, but that´s not really my favourite music genre.
I remember, that last year our slovak band The Last Days of Jesus had to play in Košice, but the concert was canceled. And I was looking forward so much...
Somehow it sucks. I´m just a student, without job and I don´t have enough money to travel to events.

But...
Maybe the slovakia goth scene is small, but still we have some great goth and goth-friendly bands:
- The Last Days of Jesus
- Hysteric Helen
- Ľahká múza
- Street Spirit
...
In summer 2008 started I a Slovak Goth Community Forum and was surprised how many members registred.
I think, it was a very good idea. :)
