Background notes

Archive material and source history

Cadacross formed in Manchester in the early 1980s, with Alistair Ives on vocals and Simon Fletcher on guitar. Their music drew from gothic literature and the atmospheric sound of bands like Joy Division, though they never fit neatly into one category.

Their 1985 debut album 'The Northern Crown' included songs like 'Bring Out Your Dead' and 'Among The Stars.' The album's title track became well-known in gothic rock circles for its dark, melodic quality. After Fletcher left in the late 1980s, Ives and bassist Michael Payne continued with new members.
