That is a fucking great list, I own ever album you mentioned too except for the 69 eyes one, I have the paris one though.

Flowing Tears, Dreams of Sanity, the Beseech, After Forever and especially that Mortal Love (which I love) are all awesome.

Seeing Theatre of Tradgedy and To/Die/For makes me all warm inside. Epilogue is a truly amazing record and I might check back here later with my own list; after I've checked out all the suggestions here of course :)

Great list, I have all of those except Sleep of the Angels and it is like the only RC I don't own except for the really old shit that just got re-released.

Good to see Dreams of Sanity up there but I like the Game better. ADKOS isn't my thing but I respect it, Wildhoney owns though. Fuck is so crazy to listen to Tiamat from Raw Black Metal to what they do today, crazy...

I wasn't sure if Wildhoney qualifies as gothic, and I think ADKOS is much better then the albums that followed. Anyway, I'm gonna see them live in a couple of weeks ;)

It's too bad there aren't many good gothic albums coming out lately. The only ones I thought deserve some attention are the latest Paradise Lost and Lake Of Tears, not much else.

that is a great list as well although I have never heard Die Laughing and Epica isn't my thing. I thought i was the only one on earth that like Rain Fell Within and Artrosis though.

Thanks! Die Laughing was an UK band playing some sort of very melodic, gothic rock.

And Artrosis...well, they're form my country so it was difficult not to hear them ;) The've just released a new album. Haven't heard it yet, but a friend has told me that this one is more guitar oriented than the previous releases :)

Lacrimosa - Elodia
Lacrimosa - Stille
Epica - Cosign To Oblivion
Paradise Lost - Draconian Times ( the older don't qualify, the newer...hmm I never thought of Depeche Mode as gothic :) )
Lacrimosa - Echos
Tiamat - Wildhoney
Nightwish - Oceanborn
Trail Of Tears - any
My Dying Bride - Turn Loose The Swans
HIM - first album

Lacrimosa is a strange band. Stille is def their best. I have Echos and Fassade as well, but really have to be in the mood for those albums.

I think Elodia is their best by far.
And then Inferno.
