Corpus Delicti + Social Youth Cult

The Cluny, Newcastle upon Tyne 36 Lime Street, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom

Formed in Nice in 1992, Corpus Delicti quickly made their mark on gothic rock with their debut Twilight (1993), followed by two more genre-defining albums before disbanding in 1997.

Over two decades later, their reputation has only grown: reissues on Cleopatra Records, praise from Postpunk.com, Ascension, and Sens Critique (which lists them among the 35 must-have gothic rock bands alongside Bauhaus, The Cure, and Joy Division), and a dedicated global fanbase keeping their legacy alive.

Plus London's Blinded By Passion, a rising band blending darkwave, synthpop and postpunk sounds into a rich tapestry of haunting melancholy.
