Teen Gothic

Been refusing to call myself a goth even tho I've been dressing in the style for over a year but I've finally accepted the label now I'm into the music, hope yall like my style 🙂 any band recommendations are greatly appreciated I love listening to new music

Hi! Baby goth here. Trying to find events that are a reasonable distance from me, but having difficulty. For reference, I live in NJ, but am willing to travel a bit. I’m 20 so unfortunately I can’t visit bars and other 21+ events. Thank you!

suspect it may be mick mercer?

I don't want to discourage them from coming, but I also want them to understand what the goth subculture is about. The community has substance and its own identity that has gotten very muddled. I just would like some advice for others who have started their own goth night in their area.

So I’ve been listening to some goth music and seeing how people dance to it and it seems like a lot of fun. While I’m not goth (I dress fairly basic) I’m very into 90s alt, hardcore, and nu-metal. When I’m dancing at a party to pop or rap I feel very trapped and insecure but goth dancing seems very free flowing and fun. I also want to meet new people and stuff. Should I go and how should I dress with the limited stuff I have?
