The first ever DVD to feature one of the major Gothic rock bands of the last twenty five years - Skeletal Family. Along with Sisters Of Mercy and The Cult - Skeletal Family led the charge of the gothic punk brigade in the ... more »early 1980's. The band formed in Keighley, West Yorkshire in 1982, taking their name from a track on David Bowie's "Diamond Dogs" album. Their first single "Trees / Just A Friend" soon caught the attention of John Peel at Radio One - who's support boosted the single into the independent charts.

"Promised Land" features an in-depth collection of live clips, promos and interview, spanning the whole of the band's career - and includes four UK Independent chart top hits.« less
