propagandamagazine-gothic:London After Midnight, L.A.’s leading goth band, played at the city’s top goth club Helter Skelter on a regular basis from the late ‘80s to early ‘90s. Propaganda’s editor-at-large Fred Berger attended three of these shows, including the one pictured here featuring bass-player John Koviak. Charismatic and statuesque, vocalist Sean Brennan held the audience in his vampiric grasp until all the blood was drained out of them after a night of wild abandon. With cobwebs hanging and fog machine cranking they belted out hit songs like “Sacrifice” and “Claire’s Horrors,” filling the dance floor every time. LAM was prominently featured in Propaganda Magazine issues #13/Winter 1990 and #15/Fall 1990, with John appearing on the front cover of the former issue. His ethereally androgynous appearance was an instant hit with the Propaganda readership, and he went on to become the magazine’s most popular model. Berger photographed him extensively for four years, resulting in some of the most iconic goth photos ever taken. PHOTO BY FRED H. BERGER, 1990.
