Teen Gothic

could i get some music recs from y'all to introduce me more into goth music? i mostly listen to shoegaze, dreampop, and indie. i love the song burn out by johnny goth and want more music similar to it 🙂

I really like the vibe of this song, is there more like it?

My boyfriend is gonna propose to me soon (relevant I promise) we've even picked out a ring together and we already know it will be a pretty small wedding, we don't have a lot of friends or even extended family who would really want to be there, so we have decided against a DJ, but I'll be honest it's also partly because I'd like to have a little more control over the music given that my tastes are what they are. So basically here it is, most if not all of the friends I'm inviting are also really into goth music, and it's also something I would want to include in the reception while everyone is dancing and having fun. Because when I personally think of dancing and letting loose, I think of goth.

But here's the thing, there will still be family members at the wedding, so essentially I'm looking for examples of goth music that won't seem partivularly abrasive or offensive to non goth adults in theyr 50s/60s. I'll be mixing them in with other music targeted more at some of our other guests so everyone will find something they'll like. I'll also take suggestions for "goth friendly but not necessarily goth" songs/ bands that some of my friends who'vebeen into goth a bit longer than I have would still likely enjoy, just to beef up the playlist a bit and have more options. It doesn't need to necessarily be anything a mainstream crowd of that age would LOVE, just something they wouldn't be too shocked to hear and wouldn't cause too much of a stir, thanks so much for the help. Bonus points for themes involving love/ romance.

I ordered my three favorite Faith and the Muse records from her, finally, and she not only signed each one with a beautiful personalized note she also threw in their greatest hits CD for free. Beautiful music from a beautiful soul.

Im not sure if this is the right subreddit for this but my dad got me a siouxsie and the banshees shirt for my birthday and it has siouxsie sioux in the middle with the star of david. Im not jewish and i am not educated on any of this but i am worried its distasteful or something for me to wear it considering im not jewish. I want to make sure before i wear it.

I’m new here so I want to share a picture and say hi, but I also have a question:

How are we defining elder goths? Is it age? How long someone has been goth? And what is that golden elder goth number?

My friends always describe the music i play as weird so I need some recommendations to slowly expose them to goth. I’ll make bauhaus fans of them yet!
