JOHN ROBB Interview 2023 : The History of Goth



John Robb
The Art of Darkness: The History of Goth

His latest opus is the 650-page “The Art Of Darkness : The History of Goth”, an in-depth account that he feels presents the first major and comprehensive overview of Goth music and culture and its lasting legacy.



John Robb is the author of THE ART OF DARKNESS: The History of Goth. He has previously written books about the Stone Roses, The Charlatans, Manchester, Post-Punk and more. He is also a member of the band The Membranes and the main force behind the website Louder Than War. Who better to interview him, since I was in Ex-Voto for a week, which is an LA goth band mentioned in the book? And a founding member of Satan's Cheerleaders, which is more like a younger cousin to The Cramps. We are all looking forward to CRUEL WORLD Fest this weekend with Siouxsie and Iggy Pop. See you there!
