I remember finding this at the library when I was in jr. high and enjoying it a lot. It was a good introduction to goth music and to several bands I came to really like, such as Switchblade Symphony and Rosetta Stone.

The songs on the Amazon Music Sampler are awful. I don't know why they skip so much.

This is a high 1 or a low 2 as I feel it may appeal to SOMEONE else moreso than it did to me. I'm sorry to say but despite a fair number of *names* included on this disc, and some minorly interesting artwork obviously mixing the Goth world with that of the Ewan McGreggor movie, I only found a track or two (Chandeen...maybe! and Rosetta Stone) that bore repeated listening. As it sits in the back of my collection, this CD is quite skippable in favor of the more popular (perhaps justifiably so) yet slightly more expensive "Goth Box" or "Black Bible".

First off, I bought it for a college project I was doing on underground music and so I expected what I got. The music isn't very well engineered and it's just .... There are a few decent songs, but the rest of them aren't worth the listening time. Maybe this is your cup of tea, but it isn't mine and I don't recommend this cd at all.
