Thanx for playing “Sister Europe” by the Psychedelic Furs on tonite’s “Dark Wave”! Can you dig up “December Will Be Magic Again” by Kate Bush for next Sunday’s show? Again, thanx!
Excellent episode tonight, Matt! I loved hearing A.R kane and The Cure. Excellent songs! Goodnight!
For next week
Joy Division – Heart and Soul
Ministry – Say Your Sorry
Siouxsie and The Banshees- Israel
Depeche Mode – Tora Tora Tora
New Order – Ceremony
The Normal – Warm Leatherette
Now that was on badass show Matt! The Gary Numan request gave me a flashback to 97 when Exile came out. Could you play Dead Heaven from it? That whole album is Numan firing on all cylinders.
The shoegaze can’t be contained to its own block any longer.
It’s broken free.
Thanks for playing my request! Here’s one I havent heard you play in awhile. The Sound Unwritten Law. thanks!
London After Midnight- Kiss. Pretty please!
I have an unusual request, and that’s the unreleased The Cure song “Step Into The Light” from the Curation show in 2018. It’s a great track – could even be a single if a studio version were ever released.
Loved hearing the Psychedelic Furs on the show last night. How about pulling out “Gentlemen Take Polaroids” from Japan for next week’s show?
Great flow on tonight’s show. Even the requests blended in nicely. How ‘bout wrapping up next week with “Leave them all Behind” by Ride.
It was great to hear magazine and Catherine wheel! You actually make me look forward to Sunday nights! How about playing “Chinese burn” by Curve?
Always great to hear ‘Kerosene’ and The Grinning Plowman. Thanks for a great show this week.
For next week, I’d like to ask for something off The Invincible Spirit’s LP Current News. Maybe ‘Provoke You’ or ‘Oxidize’. Thanks for the consideration. Have a good one.
Combustible episode.
This week’s Darkness Award:
Big Black, “Kerosene”
Request for future show:
Roxy Music, “The Main Thing”
Enjoyed the mix of tunes!
Here are some possible DW requests –
The Snake Corps – In Flux
Morrissey – Alsatian Cousin
Thanks!
How about some Death In June
– either “Fields” or “Nothing Changes” , two of my favourites from them
Thanks
Shiver and Shake by the Cure
Hi Matt
Can you play the greatest REM song ever,
E-Bow the Letter please ?
Madeline
E-Bow the Letter by REM if possible for next week
Thanks
Hi Matt!
I’ve been tuning into your show every week for years now (still have my stickers and buttons as well). This week’s set was one of my favorites. Thank you. I’m grateful for this outlet, so, I can listen to an awesome genre of music.
Following the Silent Hedges
Going to Hell again…
Thank you! You made my week with my early birthday present!
Thanks for the gift of YAZ!
Soft cell:
meet murder my angel
Or
Best way to kill
Or
Where was your heart when you needed it most.
Doesn’t get much darker than that
Love the show Matt. Hoping for Imitation of Christ AND India by the Furs.
absolutely loved (especially the bass line) “song from under the floorboards” – you’ve helped me discover so many great songs – the last was “Dans Votre Monde” which I cant stop listening to. keep’em coming!
