Teen Gothic

Is synth-pop goth? So, I listen to genres like gothic rock, death rock, dark post punk and darkwave. I've come up to some synth-pop songs I really like, and I've found some in goth playlists. Idk if it's a goth subgenre tho

For goths that are 40 or above, have you ever been dissed by someone, whether they were a goth or a non-goth, about you still being in the scene at your age?

I ask this as a 20 something babybat with bad skin, who is already self-conscious about whether or not I'm pulling it off or not.

Do you ever get self-conscious about it?

My fav songs are Attica, Malarone and decoherence.

For me, it was having a friend as a kid whose older sister dressed alternative and we tried copying her. The friend grew out of it but it caused me to be fascinated with goth and I wanted to get into it. I also had a fascination with alternative characters on tv.

Was wondering if anyone could help with some names. Looking for something different and that will stand out.

Want to chat about something which doesn't need it's own thread? Do it here!

Feel free to discuss music, fashion, events, DIY projects, etc. and anything relating to goth as long as it's in line with the subreddit rules.

Just started listening to Christian Death and I’m really enjoying them!! What is your favorite song by them so I can put together a playlist 🙂
