Teen Gothic

There'll be bats for dinner and bats for tea
Complaints from him, seething from me
A big fat rant for Sunday roast
For breakfast we'll all angst the most

And when the typing becomes a chore
We'd just grind those gears and spit them raw
Or open a window facing south
And let screams fly straight from our mouths

Me and my husband have been working out this plan for a couple of years now. Its going to be a visually gothic vampire themed establishment with a huge focus on goth music/sub culture. We live a bit further out from a more well known scene…Its bigger and has at least a few other alternative establishments. Area we currently are in has a more fledgling scene and only a couple of small businesses that are alternative. I am trying to figure out what would be the best course of action. I'd love to help build the local scene where we are. The problem is it's more expensive here for rent, but packing up our lives and changing day jobs would be probably just as expensive. The other area is also pretty established and I am worried we would be taking up space from another venue as there are several that already have goth nights Wherever our bat wings land us we want to create a safe and welcoming space for everyone. I would love some perspectives on if we should stay and try to maybe get some help with funding or make a big move and possibly take out a larger loan. Anyway if this kind of post is not allowed or if I maybe used the wrong flaire please let me know. Thank you🦇

They're openly right-wing and won't let anyone who doesn't agree to those terms, like saying "commies are the same thing as nazis", comment on their page.

Anyone got some background info about this weird shit?

(It's a facebook group, by the way… I'm not proud of where I found them.)

Too Goth to be Punk. Too Punk to be Goth. Black Rain make dark aggressive Northern Post Punk. It would mean the world to us if you were able to have a listen to our debut album.

I saw a girl on TikTok who was doing “trad goth” makeup and to me as someone very very new to goth subculture it looked like what I thought trad was but there were a good amount of comments saying that it was, in fact, not trad goth. There was like a modern trad v trad debate going on but nobody was articulating what the differences are. Is the music side of the aesthetic only separated by time like when it came out or are modern trad and trad different stylistically? Trying to make my way into the space but goth has become such a buzz word it’s hard to find actual meanings for shit.
