About the party

VampireFreaks and GBH bring their Nevermore Goth Rave to DROM at 85 Avenue A in the East Village for a Halloween Edition on Friday, October 30. Things get going at 11 PM and the listing runs it until 3 AM the next morning, New York time. This is a dark alternative dance night timed for the eve of Halloween, built around resident selectors spinning the gothic and industrial canon.

What to expect

The draw here is the record selection: the listing frames the night around DJs and classic dark dancefloor music rather than a stage show. It does not mention costume rules, live performers or special production. My take: made for people who would rather hear Bauhaus and Skinny Puppy on Halloween than a house DJ.

Music and lineup

DJ Jet, DJ Swabby and unnamed guests are the DJs named in the DICE listing. The promoter describes the sound as goth, post punk, darkwave and industrial, and lists bands whose records get played, such as The Cure, Joy Division, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Depeche Mode, Ministry, Nine Inch Nails and She Past Away. Those bands are not performing; they are examples of the music. Guest DJ names and set times are not announced.

Before you go

Doors are at 11 PM on Friday, October 30, with an end time of 3 AM the next morning (Saturday, October 31), New York time. Entry is 21+, so carry valid photo ID.
