"Beneath the Skin" by Collide; "Destiny" by Unsun

Considering the importance of music in the subjects covered on this site, this feature has been long overdue. This will not be a daily  entry, as various commitments may interfere with regular updates, but I will try to expose readers to good music as often as I have a chance to.

If there is a YouTube post of the song, I will include the link, but lacking that, I may provide artist web sites or online store 30-second samples, whatever is legally available.

Today's first selection is from the Collide. I have never been a fan of restrictive categorization of music, so I would rather go with tags, such as industrial, dark wave, electronic, gothic, techno, synth. This is a live version of "Beneath the Skin".

The second song, "Destiny", comes from across the Pond, performed by Unsun, and includes a few easily digestible popular touches, nothing bubble gum, though. Let us go for the tags gothic, metal, alternative, melodic.
