The Underlings

There are two artists that share this name: 1) An 80s British post-punk/goth rock band. 2) An American Rock trio from Eugene, Oregon formed in early 2000s. 1) And who are The Underlings? No one else but The S-Haters. After a change of drummer, the band decided to change the name as well as they felt it wasn't appropriate for the music they made. But the sound is not quite different as The S-Haters records on Midnight Music, it tangles between goth rock & post punk music.
