Texas Vamps - collected works.

I guess it has been 4 (maybe 5) years ago since I first heard of the Texas Vamps. A friend played me their "hit", If I don't wake up Today (featured on the Kaliffornian Deathrock comp), and I was hooked immediately. I listened to that track endlessly for 2 years until I realized they had 4 more tracks on their myspace page - and then finally someone shared this!
Texas Vamps were a deathrock band, who existed between 89-92. I'd like to think that their sound is quite unique - it's got a heavier edge than most of the "trad-goth" bands, and I like that. They were part of the Hollywood scene and played shows with Christian Death, Shadow Project, London After Midnight and more. 

This upload includes two tapes they released, along with a live show at the Whiskey from 1992. I took the liberty to edit some tags, adding pictures and such. 

Enjoy.
