The priest says we all need to gather for a DW biweekly communion. There are some great songs that are just too long for only one DW show. So difficult to choose which Halloween hour was best… Excellent job Matt! It’s fun to request so I’d like to hear Strawberry Switchblade- Since Yesterday.
Great show Matt. Always enjoy buzzbuzz in the eardrum .How’s about more Essense next week? Maybe something off of Nothing lasts forever. Thanks.
Demonic episode.
This week’s Darkness Award:
London After Midnight, “Demon”
The Halloween edition of Dark Wave is singlehandedly my favorite. I look forward to it every year!
Wow, Sinister Ducks … I still have my vinyl copy !
Haven’t requested something in a while. How’s about :
Japan : Life In Tokyo (or maybe Alien) – either/or.
Thanks.
Thanks again Matt. Appreciate you and the show so much!
How about this request, The Wooden Tops-‘Move Me’. A great song by a great band with a rich history.
BTW- ‘Seconds’ by the HL, freaking LOVED IT!
Love you too Matt. Never Stop!
Havent requested in awhile, but was wondering if you could play love like blood by Killing Joke? Great show btw!
Matt, the Halloween edition of Dark Wave was just amazing! For next week, these would sound perfect back to back (if time permits, of course).
Chris & Cosey – Driving Blind
Pink Industry – The Corpse
Thank you for always delivering the goods on Sunday night!

Chain. The some kind of wonderful version if you could please. Thanks mat, colin
Nice job Matt. You have introduced to some great music. Loving the show. Could you play ‘Hide and Seek’ by Echo and the Bunnymen, ‘Last Dance’ by the Cure or ‘Was There Anything I Could Do’ by The Go-Betweens?
Good Halloween show, Matt!
Great Halloween show.Always great to hear Sinisyer Ducks! Have a good one

I would love to request Bauhaus cover of “Telegram Sam” for a future show! Your show is worth the XM subscription alone Matt!
Excellent show yet again! It’s been WAY TOO LONG since I had heard Siouxsie’s “Monitor” … ! Thanks for playing that.
Would it be possible to play the extended version of Furniture’s “Brilliant Mind”
