Manchester's very own gothic-rock band, Arazel are a 5-piece lineup featuring a live drummer. The band are : Kev (vocals), Emma (keyboards), Jonathan (guitars), Ady (bass), Shane (drums).
man(i)kin are purveyors of the finest, hand-crafted noise; synth-based industrial is the order of the day here, with added gabba and techno stuff. It's loud, it's harsh, it's bloody good. The band, Martin (synths and tech), Seth (vocals), Ian (drums) and Mark (drums), are all lovely bunnies and most of 'em MancGoff subscribers to boot.
Their website is located here.
monomania aren't strictly speaking a goth band, but their blend of dark-hued indie rock has drawn favorable comparisons to the earlier work of The Cure, Joy Division and The Chameleons. Indeed, Chameleons frontman Mark Burgess is known to be a fan. Astonishingly powerful live, and tantalisingly diverse on record, monomania have a talent and style which puts many larger bands, goth or otherwise, to shame.
monomania have a website that you can visit.
Strange Rain are a relatively unknown band on the Manchester scene. They play Gothic Rock, and have a website here.
