Teen Gothic

Hello! I'm just now really getting into goth music and culture. I find a lot of bands lack the etheral and spooky sound that I think (?) is goth. But those same songs have lyrics that make me, a total expert /j, go "That seems goth". I'm not looking to call those songs goth, it just made me curious. Is goth music more honed in on the sound? Or are lyrics equally important? Can goth music be one or the other?

​

I'm sorry if that is a silly question! If my question is confusing, or my post is in the wrong section I apologize!

i’m aware that you can dance to any goth song but i want recommendations of songs that people find fun and energising to dance to

This song brings me so many vibes omg

Do you need for your significant other to be into the same things you are?

Hey, this might just be me and I’m not sure this is the right place to talk about this but lately I feel the harassment against emo/goth/alternative people has gotten a lot worse. Maybe because the influence of TikTok? People filming everyone randomly just because they look “different?” I was just wondering if anyone else noticed this, or if it’s just the place I live/my environment
