Teen Gothic

Lmk your favs, thanks

Anyone know? /synthesizers

I saw Kælan Mikla live last night and they put on one of the best live performances I have seen from a goth band so far. Highly recommend seeing them if you get a chance.

Which bands have the best stage presence in your opinion? I want to get more shows in and I’d love recommendations to look out for.

Hi. I'm 17 years old and for a few years I have been strongly admiring goth fashion. When it comes to goth music, I grew up listening to Marilyn Manson. But, strangely, the same people who took me to a Marilyn Manson concert when I was 13 really don't want me to have anything to do with goth or emo (in their minds goth and emo are close to the same) anything. Naturally, this has just made my fascination stronger. I'm a pretty good kid. Only thing I've done that seriously pissed my parents off was being trans. Maybe it's because in less than a year I'll be an adult, but I kinda feel like my teenage years would be a bit wasted if I didn't at least be a bit rebellious. So, exposition aside, give me some recommendations. Goth music, goth youtubers, some places to get goth fashion besides Hot Topic. And before anyone says anything, this isn't just an act of rebellion that I'm doing just to piss off my parents. It's something I've been thinking about for a few years but I'd be lying if I said that annoying my parents isn't a bonus.

So for a bit of context normally I get anxious going out wearing anything that isn't a casual goth outfit. Today, being holloween I decided to go out wearing with long, black coat to try to dress how I want to since it wouldn't be too out of the ordinary on a day like today. Went to Target and one of the workers complimented on my "costume" and it made me feel good and confident. I absolutely needed that today and hopefully will help me feel confident enough to get out of my comfort zone more often. Just wanted to share
