| Music Finally, an entire forum devoted to talking about Doktor Avalanche, the drum machine for the Sisters of Mercy. You can talk about other bands, or other members of that band, too, if you want to be UNCOOL. |

45 Grave
Does anyone here like them? I mean, the music in general is a little cheesy, but they are pretty fun. Sorry if someone already made a post about them, I didn't see it.

I love them very much. ^.^ I'm wearing a 45 grave pin on my pants right now.

I freakin' love them.
Surf Bat is an amazing piece of danceable fun, and Riboflavin is simply one of my favourite songs ever.
I gave him riboflavin flavoured, non-carbonated, poly-unsaturated blood...

I'd have to say 'Evil' is my favorite 45 Grave song. 'Surf Bat' is amazingly fun as well.

Sounds like a fun band. I may have to take a gander. If you had to compare them to another pre-existing band, who would it be?

45 Grave is gonna be here in St. Louis, MO on October 24.
As for comparisons...........
I dunno.
I have an old video
I recorded in the mid 80's of 45 Grave on New Wave Theatre
and its awesome.
Dinah sings with a big live python snake all wrapped around her.

To be truthful, Dinah's voice annoys me; and although the lyrics are amusing, they're not Voltaire funny, nor Christian Death interesting.
I like their cover on School is Out for Summer, neverthertheless; but it's not as good as the real one.

A comparison to 45 Grave? Maybe a teeny bit of Sex Gang Children due to the "fun" factor...but not really the sound. It's hard to think of a band to compare them to.

The guitar solo at the end of 'Violent World' blows me away.

They're awesome. "Evil" is right on par with Bauhaus' "Stigmata Marytr" as for Gothic rock jams. If you enjoy them, I suggest Penis Flytrap or Antiworld.

I'd be hard pressed to call it 45 Grave without Paul Cutler and Rob Graves.

Why not? She seems to be on a personal level with the fans.

Here stage pressence and interaction with fans might make up for here complete lack of singing talent. I did like 'party time' or whatever it's called.
