2008 in review, session 1 of 2. Yes, the Necessary Response was released in 2007, but I decided to play it nonetheless. I was introduced to it in 2008. So there.

2008 in Review
Since BlackRose is out of town, I'll be handling TBC all by my lonesome today. This also means that we'll probably delay revealing this year's Top 10 until the show on January 3rd. However, a cursory glance at the releases of 2008 shows that we have our work cut out for us in deciding:
In all honesty, I don't want to do a Top 10, and in the end we may not. Every one of these albums (including the ones I've somehow forgotten) deserves the highest of praise and continued, repeated play. I don't want to hold one release above another, because to do so would disregard the remarkable talent and quality found in all of these.
I am extremely proud of the extraordinary material we showcase on TBC, and am deeply grateful and honored to have the opportunity to spin nothing but the best in freeform darkness. I eagerly look forward to what 2009 holds.

TBC Invades CCLI!
Just a quick reminder - as was announced on Closed Caskets for the Living Impaired this past weekend, BlackRose and myself will be filling in for Archpope Däch as he takes a well-earned vacation for the next two weeks.
It'll also give me a chance to debut "Phoenix", my work-in-progress laptop-based DJ system.
4 hours of us for the next two Saturdays... can we/you handle it? Tune in to find out!

Collide - Two Headed Monster
Collide's new album, Two Headed Monster, is set to be released on September 23; it's their first original release (not counting the Vortex remixes or side-project The Secret Meeting) since Some Kind of Strange in 2003. kaRIN and Statik are joined in this release by Danny Carey from Tool and Dean Garcia of Curve, as well as all of the Collide live band, Rogerio Silva, Kai Kurosawa, Scott Landes, and Chaz Pease.
From the bits and pieces I've heard of the album, it's set to be another awesome album: classic Collide. The tracks "Pure Bliss" and "Spaces In Between" sound like they'll surprise the hell out of me when I hear the full version.
Hopefully, we'll also be in for some live performances - the only time I've seen them live was in San Diego at Brick by Brick in 2005, cursing myself that I missed their show at the El Rey in Los Angeles (from which the Like the Hunted DVD and Live at the El Rey CD was produced). Admittedly, it was one of the best live performances I've ever seen by any band.

A sad anniversary...
... Sophie Lancaster died one year ago today.
In memory of this wonderful woman, we played VNV's Illusion last night on the show. Should have said more about it, but in some ways it's still too painful to speak of...
Paraphrasing a wise statement: don't let hatred have the final word.
Copied from the Sophie Myspace bulletin:
For more information, please visit S. O. P. H. I. E.'s MySpace.
Sophie sadly died on August 24th 2007, following the horrific attack on her and her partner Rob in Stubbeylee Park, Bacup, Lancashire on the 11th August. Sophie and Rob dressed in their unique way, expressing their individuality as creative artistic people.

TODAY IS THE FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF SOPHIE'S DEATH
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR THE LOVELY, THOUGHTFUL MESSAGES YOU HAVE SENT FOR SYLVIA [Sophie's mother] AND FAMILY AND ROB AND FAMILY. THEY BRING A GREAT DEAL OF COMFORT AT THIS VERY DIFFICULT TIME.
PLEASE TAKE SOME TIME OUT TODAY TO REMEMBER SOPHIE AND ROB AND MAYBE LIGHT A CANDLE, HAVE A MOMENT OF REFLECTION, SAY A PRAYER OR MAKE A NOISE. WHATEVER IS THE RIGHT THING FOR YOU.
THANK YOU FOR HELPING US ENSURE SOPHIE IS NOT FORGOTTEN AND FOR BEING BEHIND THE CAMPAIGN TO CHANGE THINGS FOR OTHERS.
PEACE AND RESPECT TO YOU ALL

PETA, sponsored by... Das Ich?
The Grave Concerns Ezine caught my interest today when they claimed to be the "first on-line music zine to bring you the latest Peta Campaign photos from Das Ich".
Das Ich? PETA? Wait... what? Admittedly, as I don't know much about Das Ich behind the music (aside from Stefan's affinity for makeup and shaking his sweaty head in front of a crowd, as described to me by BlackRose), I thought this to be a rather unlikely juxtaposition.
Yet, I don't think my eyes are deceiving me this time:
We *have* to play Destillat tonight.

Is it live, or is it Memorex?
I'm pleased to announce that this site is now live on KUCI's domain. Many thanks to Rob for his advice.
Tuesday, August 19, 2008
Um, intro?
I was so excited to post the latest playlist and commentary that I didn't even introduce the site. How shameful of me!
[clears throat] Ahem. Um, hi! I'm The Doctor, and you have reached one of the many web holes of The Black Cauldron, a Goth / Industrial / Darkly-Oriented radio show that is broadcast live every Saturday night on KUCI in Irvine. Although I'm not the original host of the show, I believe we're in our tenth year of delivering our promise of "freeform darkness" to the masses.
While we play nothing but the newest and finest in dark music, including (but not limited to) gothic, industrial, darkwave, deathrock, EBM, dark electro, dark cabaret, and steampunk, that's not the only thing that makes us special and noteworthy. The thing is, we're also kind of crazy. BlackRose and I excel at being weird and sometimes amusing. We've been likened to the "Sifl and Olly of Gothic Radio"... I don't know who said that of us (it might have been myself, actually), but it's been said, no taking it back.
We also have a companion MySpace page (linked to at the top of this blog) that BlackRose maintains, so I'll probably be posting the majority of the entries here. Also, we hope to have this site associated directly with KUCI's servers for further exposure.
To those discovering us for the first time, welcome. To those who already know us, greetings. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the darkness. After all, could I have ended this post in any more of a hackneyed fashion?

*3. Straftanz - Finale Vollendung - Forward Ever, Backward Never - Scanner
I liked the combo of these three songs - bioassay mixed really well with Rotersand, and following that up with Straftanz seemed the natural choice.
*4. Neuroticfish - The Bomb - A Greater Good - Dancing Ferret DiscsObviously not a new release, but the Neuroticfish best-of album is new to us. Expect more goodness to come.
*5. Anders Manga - 100,000 Tears - X's & the Eyes - Vampture RecordsProving that Anders has a soft side...
*6. Ego Likeness - The Lowest Place on Earth - The Lowest Place on Earth - Self ProducedWith Dancing Ferret Discs going under, this is one of the bands whose future I'm most interested in. We've seen them live twice, and they put on amazing sets both times. I can't wait for new stuff from them.
*7. The Crüxshadows - Immortal (Our Souls Enduring Club Mix) - Immortal - Dancing Ferret Discs
Another DFD refugee - I sincerely hope that their upcoming album's release won't be pushed back.
8. Diary of Dreams - Malice - Nekrolog 43 - Metropolis Records9. Seabound - Transformer - Beyond Flatline - Metropolis Records
10. Covenant - Call The Ships To Port - Nothern Light - Metropolis Records
I had forgotten how good these last three tracks are - hence the comment during broadcast about "clubby goodness".
11. Specimen - Lilacs - Electric Ballroom - Metropolis Records - Request
I'm really not impressed with Specimen's latest release - it sounds completely out of character for them and the "remix" of "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" is a joke.
12. Her Voice Remains - Love is Gone - Her Voice Remains - Her Voice Remains Music*13. Catastrophe Ballet - The Lovers Delight - Bats From Europe Vol. 1 - Thin Man Entertainment - Compilation
*14. The Deep Eynde - Date From Hell - Bad Blood - People Like You Records
15. Bella Morte - Final Words - Songs for the Dead - Metropolis Records
*16. Demonika and the Darklings - Choir of Change - Shelter - Self Produced
*17. Death in Dresden - Animalism - Seduced By The Night - Gaunt Lush Productions
18. KMFDM - Tohuvabohu - Tohuvabohu - Metropolis Records
I recently got Brimborium, the remix album for Tohuvabohu, and was actually impressed with Angelspit's "Ex Nihilo" remix of this song. The Die Krupps mix of "Looking for Strange" is good listening too - the other tracks are marginal.
*19. Combichrist - Sent to Destroy (Northborne Remix) - Frost EP: Sent to Destroy - Metropolis RecordsAdmittedly not the best remix of this song on the EP - the beats seem out of sync with the energy of the song.
20. Gasr - Haute Couture - Reptile - Nilaihah Records21. Collide - Crushed - Some Kind of Strange - NoisePlus Music
I remember listening to this album for the first time and feeling goosebumps as the track kicked into the chorus. Lush, rich stuff.
