I think The Nephilim is one of the most perfect records ever made.

Agreed. Also, seconding the Legendary Pink Dots, Clan of Xymox, and Red Lorry Yellow Lorry. Pink Dots in particular are insanely prolific and easy to get lost in.

Rosetta Stone were a goth rock outfit sort of like Sisters of Mercy between First And Last And Always and Vision Thing.

Abney Park, before they went steampunk, did some goth stuff.

Gossamer did some really good stuff. I don't see it on YouTube, but there's a version of Shell Full of Sand with the flute player from Black Tape For A Blue Girl that's worth tracking down. It clocks in at 6:59 instead of 7:10. About half of their songs have multiple versions, either because they were rerecorded for the album Closure, or because of Wayne Hussey remixes. It's all worth tracking down. These guys had haunting and beautiful really well nailed.

VNV Nation call themselves futurepop instead of goth and are a bit dance-oriented but worth exploring.

Speaking of Pink Dots side projects: I like some of the Silverman solo stuff, and the Niels Van Hoorn album (though that's not much like LPD). Tear Garden also good.

Edit: Tones On Tail was also Bauhaus minus Peter Murphy and did interesting goth-related experimental stuff. There's a compilation called Everything.

I'm not huge on goth music, but I enjoy me some Sisters of Mercy every now and then. The reason I'm posting here is I just stumbled upon this thread and figured someone here might appreciate this band I was introduced to a few days ago:

Pretty obvious Sisters worship there but I don't mind, they have fun catchy songs.

Never heard of these guys (Terminal Gods), but I like this. Grabbed the EP and a couple of singles. Thanks!
