Can anyone recommend any good melodic goth bands (Abney Park, Sisters of Mercy, Inkubus Sukkubus, etc)?

I'm tired of all my current music, and I'm having trouble finding new stuff.

The record stores around here suck. I have to go to South Street in Philly to find anything good.

I've been tring to find stuff online. It's amazing how much crap is out there. It's also amazing how much stuff is link-rotted, or on broken sites.

You are correct sir... the one movie quote you coudn't get was from Star Trek: First Contact.

Recomendations for melodic goth music...

Delerium. Both Karma and the new one Chimera are quite good. Poem as well.
This Mortal Coil. A bit odd, but quite pretty and moving at parts. Beautiful voice.
Colide. This band can run from soft to hard, but it's all pretty good. Sometimes evocotive of Evanescence, but often better and bigger sounding.
Switchblade Symphony. The ultimate in goth, otherworldly, transcendent gothy goth goth. Almost too much.
Cocteau Twins. Not goth per se, based on an old styel of celtic music, Cocteau Twins have some rabid fans. For otherworldly, ethereal, incredible voicing, this is it. The most amazing part is that Liz Fraser does all the vocals, and she's got a range you won't believe.
Sarah Brightman. The ex-diva has quite an operatic voice. Not strictly, or even mostly, goth, alot of her stuff is quite beautiful and melodic none the less.
The Cranes. More popish than your average goth music, the lead singers ability to sound like she's seven makes for some pretty tunes.
Joy Division. Naturally.
Hungry Lucy. A small, local band (well, not local here, but...). You can get their CD on amazon. Very pretty, unquestionably goth.
Jane Jensen. Not goth, but great stuff. You can get her CD through Amazon as well. Reminiscent of Garbage. Burner is one of my favorite albums.
Loreena McKennitt. Celtic Folk Singer. You'd be hard pressed to find a prettier voice. Half her stuff is covers of old poems and folk songs, the other half is original. Highly recommended.
Moby. A blend of techno and whatever else strikes his fancy, Moby is the master of his style.
VNV Nation. Good techno/industrial
Juno Reactor. Good techno with their own twist.

Hope that helps. I'll add any I think of later!

And that, my friend, is the meaning of life! wink
