A Mad Crush on Metal Chicks In Black? Guilty as charged, your honor!





Nothing earth-shaking to report this week.... But I do have 5 chunks of random info you may digest if you wish.

1) The tentative date for our transition from BIG-VHUS-site to Little-VHUS-free-site is November 11th.

2) I'm considering setting up a public Dropbox folder where interested parties can download ~15-20 of our better episodes.   If you have any suggestions on what (or not) to include, drop me a line.

3)  Nice to see so many of you getting off your butts and taking advantage of the Classic Encore episodes on offer.   I also appreciate the letters from new listeners expressing their new-found appreciation of VHUS, as well as their dismay at being WAY too late to the party.  

4)  There's a new album out there called RHAPSODIES IN BLACK from a coven of well-known female gothic/symphonic  vocalists calling themselves EXIT EDEN.


The vocal lineup includes Clementine DelauneyAmanda Somerville,
Marina La Torraca and Anna Brunner (Epica's Simone Simons also guests on 2 tracks).

The gimmick: 11 goth-ified, opera-metal-injected covers of what most of us would consider God-awful POP songs (maybe a couple of exceptions).

I bought it.   I listened a few times.   I didn't hate it.  And I'm not ashamed.    Here's an Amazon link if you're curious.

5) Twitter & Uncle: Soon to be DIVORCED.   The shit and the politics are just too fucking deep.
