About Us

We, are the goths, the punks, the metal-heads, the freaks and the weirdos… We are the Darker Side of Austin.

The Darker Side of Austin is your resource for all things goth, punk rock, heavy metal, horror, and the strange and usual happening in Austin. We curate a list of shops, bars, clubs, attractions, concert, events, and more, that cater to our dark lifestyles — or are of interest to us. If you find that we are missing something or want to have an event included on the calendar use one of the suggestion links. We hope you find this site useful. If you like what we are doing, then spread the word. If not, tell us what we can do to make it better.

The site is curated and managed by Nikke & Sebastian of the Bloody Rose Boutique.
