Teen Gothic

Question is in the title. Synthpop and other adjacent genres are fine with me 🙂

I'm looking for goth songs or band that have/use brass instruments. I just know "The Passenger" by Siouxsie and the Banshees and "A Night Like This" by The Cure.

I'm just wondering because I'm constantly told that I'm a closet goth, but I don't see it. Did I geek out on seeing Vandal Moon and Twin Tribes live? Yeah, but that doesn't make me goth. Right?

Is anyone else consistently shocked this band doesn't get more credit or mentions? Unrivaled old-school original Goth. Absolutely in a league of their own.

Okay so… I’ve been into alternative music for about 6 years (emo, metal, screamo), and always was interested in alternative fashion but shied away from it because of my parents/fear of not fitting in. Well I’m now moved out and beginning to develop my own style and have been trying to build up a more goth wardrobe as I love the style, music, and literature, and have fell in love with all those things in the last few months. Well, my boyfriend was super supportive and encouraged me to experiment with makeup, but now that I’ve began shopping for more gothic clothes, I can tell he doesn’t love it. He’s never liked trad goth makeup (I do). Today he kind of revealed that he’s not sure how much he actually likes goth style. I think he just thought I was going to be like a stereotype of a goth girl, like overly sexual and more of an E-girl type style (not that anything is wrong with that but it’s not my style). I don’t know how to feel. On one hand, I want him to find me attractive but at the same time, this style makes me feel confident and sexy and like I’m actually expressing myself. I really love him and he’s super supportive so I know he wouldn’t try to control how I dress but I really don’t want him to be less attracted to me now. Does anyone have any advice?

Is the owner of The Castle aware that his staff is banning guest that report their drinks being spiked? Or that members of his staff have been gaslighting victims and those defending victims?

I wasn’t at the castle last weekend when those people got banned after they filed a police report, I also do not know those people, but I’m aware of several victims getting their drinks spiked and several staff gaslighting.

I do not believe the owner is aware of what is going on, but something needs to be done before this ruins the local community.

there has been reports of someone hanging around the patio that had dropped something into drink

I suspect that a bar tender is involved, possibly other staff due to their past support of predators, and gaslighting.

I would like to see the security footage from that night, but I doubt we’ll get to see, it’s probably already been deleted.
