Faded Flowers - Shriekback

[link] A dark and beautiful song.  No one was better than these guys in setting up an organo-SF atmosphere.  The beautiful melodic-romantic edge that makes goth, although Shriekback wasn't primarily known as a goth band (that I know of). Saw them open up for Simple Minds at Buff State College in 1985 (or possibly early 86).  They were great, especially the backing singers.  Good show.
