Teen Gothic

I promise I'm not trying to be a music nerd here 🙂

I've recently gotten very into Lalalar, Brek, and a few other Turkish darkwave groups and Im absolutely enchanted. It's been a breath of new life into my soul.

If I had to pick one aspect which intrigued me it's the use of quartertones. Think of the melodic range you hear from a call to prayer from a parapet in Constantinople, only the muezzin is getting down with a Roland 707.

I'm not specifically looking for darkwave. Really just music from any sub-genres that have a melodic taste of "exotic to western ears"?

This would also include goth music in pentatonic? Like.. East Asian goth?

Really, goth music in general which incorporates non-Western melody would be amazing?

Also…since I'm asking… if anyone knows of a Lakota goth band (of any flavor.. its for a Lakota friend) I'd LOVE to know. Thanks!!!

So i’ve been into both punk (especially anarcho and crust) and goth (especially deathrock) music for a while now, and i often find myself gravitating towards deathrock bands that lean heavily towards punk musically. I did more research into this and discovered more artists making this sort of music, anarcho-punk fused with goth and deathrock. Bands like christ vs warhol, moral hex, slimy member, deathcharge, mystic priestess, etc, often comprised of punks making gothier music but keeping elements of punk in their music. I’m yet to find any bands with a sound i would fully describe as a mixture of crust punk and deathrock, the closest being a song called Crisis de Identidad by a band called Secta who i need to look into more. Does anyone know any bands similar to this. especially ones with d beat/crust elements?

I've never seen this album.. I've been listening to SOM for quite some time. Could anyone explain this? Had to be in-between floodland and vision thing.. maybe even after vision thing?

An example I suppose would be The Birthday Massacre. I've seen some people consider them darkwave and others synthpop, some call it gothic rock and others industrial.

I've just kinda been left in this confusion of how these conclusions of subgenre are made. I understand what makes Rosetta Stone gothic rock or Joy Division post-punk, but not something like TBM where I can't get a decisive answer.

Like I said, I'm new to this. Very new, and I'm just trying to figure out the sub genres I like by bands I've listened to. I tagged this as a recommendation request cuz I'd like some recommendations on the subgenres so I can see more of what they're all like to get a better understanding.

EDIT: Just want to say I appreciate all the feedback, I think I'm starting to get a better understanding of the genre!

This is the second studio album by Dead Can Dance. This is where they really started to develop the sound they are most well known for. I love the first three albums but I prefer the first one to any of them. Still, this is one of my favorites to spin when the mood hits. Such a great atmosphere! Also there’s something about the album art that I really love…

Post your wrapped here please.

That's all!

More patches that I painted a few months ago… Most of them I gave as gifts… I'm thinking about recording some video tutorials on how I paint them.

Hi! Please tell me if I should post this in r/korea instead and I'll delete this post right away 🙂
I was wondering if anyone knew of goth clubs (or clubs that play goth music) in Korea, Seoul in particular. And if anyone went to any of those places, I would really appreciate if you could tell me your experience. Thank you!
