ROSETTA STONE - DISCOGS

No sizeable collection is complete without a copy of “An Eye For The Main Chance” by Rosetta Stone, one of the great Goth stalwarts of the early 90’s. Any of their early releases will serve you well for astute melodic variety and atmosphere, and at the time these photos were taken, to accompany an interview for Zillo magazine, they had released the smart “The Tyranny Of Inaction” album.

Cleopatra have been releasing Rosetta Stone material for a while now, including new material. “Under The Weather” came out last year and next week sees the appearance of covers collection “Nothing Is Sacred”. Links to both are provided.

Tomorrow I bring you 36 photos of the great D-A-D, from Roskilde in 1989.
