After listening to this CD, I have come to a conclusion. I am not "gothic".

Maybe I just don't have what it takes. Maybe I am just too lame to understand this genre. I ordered this CD because I liked a couple of bands featured on it and it claimed it had many unreleased or rare tracks. Moonspell, Type O, and Therion were the only artists listed I was particularly fond of; the others were either unknown to me or I didn't care for them in the first place. After listening to it I was very disappointed. Most of it was crap to be honest. As for the tracks I was looking forward to, Type O had a song that was featured on October Rust, Moonspell had a song from their 2econd Skin EP, and Therion had a early version of Black Sun.
