Here's another one from The March Violets when they played at the Melkweg in Amsterdam in October 1983. Originally acquainted with and associated with the Sisters of Mercy (via Leeds and the fact that their first release was on the Sisters' 'Merciful Release' label), latterly they were more aligned with the likes of Red Lorry Yellow Lorry and Xmal Deutschland and they shared the stage with both bands on numerous occasions.
Consistently labelled as 'Goth', more importantly, The March Violets are a band of the post-punk era who were able to offer something edgy and different at a time (early to mid-'80's) when so much music in the UK turned to shit.
The March Violets are playing dates in the UK in the summer.
Thanks as ever to Peter for this one!
