Teen Gothic

Just need to clean a few edges and add varnish. I freehanded it so I’m super proud

As the title says, are there any bands (or even songs) that you listen to and think "damn, I need more of it" but there's very little or none at all?

• Songs Avatar and Mesmerism by Dead Can Dance. A majestic duo of ethereal goth and world music. I think the secret is the layered reverberated guitar sound and use of ethnic instruments and the professional mixing. It's interesting how DCD were an inspiration for lots of bands, yet no one seem to be on the same level (and style) to these songs. The closest to this I've heard is Shallow Mists by Eden. Also I've forgot to mention another song by Dead Can Dance, Ocean. Melancholic, tragic, minimalistic and touching.

• Xmal Deutschland. You can immediately recognize this band by howling voice of Anja Huwe drowning within heavily reverberated guitars and tribal drums which makes you feel like you're having a concert in an abandoned cathedral haunted by banshees. The closest to this sound is the contemporary Brazilian band Rakta. Also I'd like to mention Chvenie Absolútna album by Slovakian band Ľahká Múza – it's actually ethereal wave, but has the right amount of howling and reverberation.

Some notable ones i already have are lesbian bed death, siouxsie and the banshees, Cocteau twins, mystic priestess, molchat doma, cemetery sex and scary bitches. It's also a plus if the group happens to be female led or lesbian.

Some edits I made of Azeka & Dolo from the band Aurat عورت and Shannon Funchess from the band Light Asylum <3

Just like how teens are known as "baby bats" is there something for someone who's older who's getting into the scene?

I feel like these days there are plenty of new bands, especially in US that are classifing themselves as a goth bands but when you play their stuff they sound like blink182 or the offspring rip off just with a different lyrics. Can't recall such things happening in 90s.
