   About Bettie Black
Bettie Black music: Dark Wave ~ Goth ~ Rock.................... Joy Division ~ Iggy Pop ~ PJ Harvey ~ Johnny Rotten............... "a friend turned me on to post-punk music, and it's had a huge impact on me artistically. The bands play this darker music, and the lyrics are very real and descriptive of the trials of life......of REALITY. I loved punk, but what most attracted me to the bands rising out of England in the early 80's was the minor darkness of their music. It still has a close relation to punk rock..........stripped down and urban, street like and honest...." (Bettie Black) otto_hecate chalice & blade
