BTW, I did know about the cd releases. Thanks for mentioning i

They were more like a not so cheesey Dead Or Alive. Much much darker but not dark enough to be easily labeled as a Goth band. I guess you can kind of say the same thing for the band Freur. Anyways, I guess the best way to describe these guys is a cross
