Carl Orff. Most noted for his Opera Carmina Burana. In this case I was listening to Trionfo di Afrodite, or the Triumph of Aphrodite wherein the classical Goddess tries to overcome her many sexual desires and fails... repeatedly.

Grim Faeries is a band started by Keyboardist Curse Mackey, formally of My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult. The band went on one tour and cut one indie album before xTina, Curse's wife, got pregnant with their second child. The music is a mix of gothic rock and the Brothers Grimm fairy tales.

Seraphim Shock are just this band of gothic punk rockers out of Denver whose sound, and bass player Daisey Grave, I happen to like. At least enough to pay the extra $5 for an autographed copy of their latest album. I've never been much of a FanBoy, but I do appreciate a certain level of artistry and independance....

I never really got into gothic punk rock. I don't dislike it (it's not to the level of gangsta rap), but I just never really listened to it much.
