Awful:

I remember some on the MTV and VH1 in late 90s and early 2000s that were cringe or pure/mostly misinformation but I can't remember the names.

What exactly inspired you to start listing to Goth music? Was it gradual? Was new wave, dark wave or post-punk gateway genres for you, or did you just start listening to Goth right off the bat?

I'm interested in knowing what about Goth specifically is interesting to you. Is it the melancholy lyrics and vocals, the haunting effects, the driving bass lines, or is there just an indefinable quality to Goth music that encapsulated you?

I eagerly await your answers.
