The Gothic Archies
Gothic Rock / Bubblegum Pop
The Gothic Archies is the Gothic rock-bubblegum pop band of celebrated songwriter Stephin Merritt, also of The Magnetic Fields, The 6ths, and Future Bible Heroes. Merritt is the only member although he hopes to acquire more soon.
What makes this band different from The Magnetic Fields is that any glimmer of hope is absolutely extinguished.
The current Gothic Archies project is The Tragic Treasury: Music for "A Series of Unfortunate Events", a compilation of theme songs written for each of the 13 volumes of Lemony Snicket's "Series of Unfortunate Events" book series.
