Teen Gothic

I am a casual goth dresser. I've got typically accessory, wearing only shades with exception of rings, and an active goth listener.

However I feel as if lately that I feel ashamed of myself for being intrigued by morbid culture. It feels like that's "me" but I've been doubting myself.

Being goth has always been a beautiful concept to me. Finding an identity that made so much sense to me but I just feel rejected in a sense by society. Please any advice so that I could stop caring? I feel insecure.

The cassette is a compilation album from 1990 celebrating Elektra Records' 40th anniversary. This specific Cure cover can also be found on their album Join the Dots: B-Sides and Rarities, 1978-2001 (The Fiction Years) Please let me know if I should use a different flair. Didn't know what fit best

My personal favorites off the album are ‘Orchid Rain’ and ‘Featherless’.

Ben Christo? More like “Ben Christ, look at those cheekbones”

Unfortunately, I was not allowed to bring my good camera into this event as it was a Live Nation sponsored show, so I made do with what was allowed in and am pleased with the results. However, that camera thing looks like it might change for me at future goth rock shows thanks to friends who ran this one. I'll post a video montage of this show (and a bunch of past shows) eventually. The Sisters of Mercy played a bunch of unreleased songs which was amazing to hear. Who else saw them on tour?

Another live goth/darkwave band checked off the bucket list 🖤
