Teen Gothic

To put it in to view first I always have my hair teased so I assume that is why there was attention brought to it. I was in a thrift store with a friend and just as we were exiting she realized she forgot something so she went back to get it, I ended up waiting just by the shopping carts so I can keep an eye out for her. I started to pull my phone out to check the time when this lady, (possibly in her 30s-40s) comes out of no where and starts to touch my hair, before I could say anything she made a statement about how she thought it would be fluffy and she walked off, I think I stood there for maybe 5 minutes just stunned, I have had my fair share of having people touch my hair or clothes without asking but that was just weird, so now I'm curious, has any other goths experienced this?

As far as I’ve seen, bands like Faith and the Muse and Dead Can Dance are also considered among darkwave genre although they are mentioned much more in ethereal wave genre. But why these bands are also considered darkwave? What are some example songs? And do you think this darkwave lebel is true?

Sorry for the quality lol

Discovered Vosh a couple weekends back playing with Korine and Soft Kill, they’re from DC and seem to generally fall into darkwave and kind of blur between industrial and goth rock depending on the song. Have been hooked and caught them in a couple other East Coast cities since and have been listening to their debut album Vessel a bunch. I heard they had opened for Clan of Xymox earlier in the year and they tour with some other contemporary post punk/goth bands like Vision Video, Urban Heat and Twin Tribes.
