Teen Gothic

I believe so. They mix a variety of subgenres of electronic music with darkwave so for me they are goth.

I know I have the artistic skill of a 1st grader, but had fun regardless.

*Not original idea by me

I'm sharing it here because it seems related even though the sub is talking about the music.

There is something about self-expression that is super hard if you have social anxiety or if you grew up in a conservative home.

Even years before I got into the goth scene as a young girl I was very anxious to stand out or look strange especially from where I come from.

The thing is that I wanted to stand out but my social anxiety together with the conservative and primitive home I come from I couldn't.

I still look at goths and say "one day I can look like that without caring what everyone or my family says".

I'm also not a social person so it's much harder to find "people like you".

So how many of you had this problem and overcame it ?

I am tired of seeing half naked individuals when I just want to see stuff for the music, fashion or the culture in general. Sorry if this is the wrong sub but I'm at my wit's end with it

For me it's Christian Death I'm still trying to get into them but I don't understand why they are so loved I didn't find anything special or particularly enjoyable about them.

And if I'm being honest? I really like goth music but I haven't found bands that I like a lot of their songs. I consider myself a fan of the genre and not a fan of any band/artist.

The strings at the beginning and end of the song just sound so familiar but google is not helping me find out if it’s original or sampled. If it is, could someone let me know what song it is? Just curious
