Teen Gothic

Is there any goth bands or albums that explore complex vocal harmonies? Huge fan of Beach Boys and psychedelic rock harmonies and would love to hear that stuff in post punk Also not really looking for anything too crazy just stuff beyond the normal two part lines you hear on a lot of goth songs Thanks🙏

I am organising the funeral of my ex husband who took his life. We are having quite a bit of life music (he used to be in a band) but I would like to have something more church like sounding that is goth or dark wave (best with orchestra or violins) but has not the morbid lyrics he liked. Something that doesn’t spook relatives or other people. I was thinking „love me to the end“ by deine lakeien. (Don’t know if that is goth considered by this sub? But he heard that and considered himself part of the subcultures) Any other ideas?

I first started listening to The Soft Moon in 2015 and I immediately was blown away by their sound. ‘Zeros’ was the first song I heard and I couldn’t get enough. Ever since then, I was hoping for the opportunity to catch them live and it wasn’t until November 2022 that I finally had the opportunity to see them. Hands down, one of the most energetic shows I’ve ever been to. Luis knew how to move a crowd. His music was incredible, I hope everyone takes the moment to listen to this band if they haven’t, we lost a great one today. 🥀

Saw London after midnight live in 2007, fantastic show never forget!!

Looking for some sort of confirmation that I am indeed not a shitty parent for doing something (that I (53f)and my husband ( 54m) think is pretty awesome). This weekend I am djing along with two other djs at a local (hopefully monthly) all ages event. We have a 12 year old son who has proudly proclaimed since the age of 9 that he is goth just like his parents. Dyes his hair, paints his nails, wears all black and dons eyeliner from time to time. My question for all of you is this. Am I a bad parent for letting my son willingly go to this all ages event with us at this age (he knows a lot of the bands and is completely comfortable in the subculture) knowing full well that he is potentially the future of the scene in our area? Or am I just feeling strange about it because I was told I couldn’t be myself even in High School and had to wait till I was out of my parental abode to finally come out of the coffin as it were?

Edit to add: he’s been to a handful of concerts with us (most recently the last set of Skinny Puppy shows where we were front row the whole time and he shared a moment with Nivek Ogre) and he is a performer in his own right attending our local School of Rock as a singer).
