Where: 400 Bagley Ave, Detroit, Inside the Leland (parkinglot entrance) - Cass is the major cross street, Detroit, MI <br>
Observations : This is a consistently evolving club that is currently blending the newer sounds from groups like Neuroticfish, VNV Nation, Wolfsheim, Rotersand, and Covenant with the more classic sounds of Skinny Puppy, Nine Inch Nails, Nitzer Ebb, and Front Line Assembly. Along with some occasional classics like Sisters of Mercy and Bauhaus.  The crowd is diverse and rather friendly as long as you are as well, (and don't look like a lost tourist.) It used to be the only solid "goth" club in Detroit, however now there is a large techno scene on most nights. <br>
