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.

I've seen them perform three times at a couple LA area clubs and Deathrock events. Well, the current incarnation of them anyway, which is Dinah and an otherwise totally different group of people than the old 45 Grave, and is much more hard rock-sounding.

I always saw Dinah walking around in the crowd but never took the opportunity to talk to her.

I enjoy Party Time. Her voice is a bit to get used to. But it's starting to grow on me.

I wont lie, I've heard a couple of turds from them. But then there are those other songs that aren't so bad.

Ofcourse, I'm heavily biased.

Surf Bat = awesome. As does the actual song called "45 grave." Sleep in safety is an amazing album, period.

Dinah Cancer annoys me. Generally I like some camp in gothic rock, but I just can't stand their music.

Oh yeah. 45 Grave. How I love thee Dinah Cancer

Dinah's other band, Penis Flytrap, is really cool too. So's the Grave Robbers, who play in a style closer to the original 45 Grave.

I can't stand their music. I don't like their highly punkish brand of death rock. It's too much for me. I've listened to enough of their music and they still have not grown on me.
