Teen Gothic

i always thought shoegaze bands like my bloody valentine and have a nice life had a very gothic feel to them. do they have goth influence, or is it just cause theyre offsprings of post punk? (im not sure what flair to use)

Hello everyone, I'm looking to expand my friend group. I've made some really interesting friends around Tucson,but I'm looking to find a few more that are interested in the trad goth subculture and things pertaining. I like going to the Surly Wench for fineline and 80s night as well as just hanging out there on Sunday. I like thrifting and making my own clothes, taking walks and visiting spooky or abandoned places,Bookman's etc. I also love music, and like to write it as well. I'm a male in my early 30s but I don't mind hangout from 25 and up. Feel free to dm me or something. I'd also really like to get the Goth community out here to be more cohesive. Any way thanks all.

Anyone have any recommended songs about vampires and stuff, but specifically not the kind of song you would hear at the beginning of Blade?
