Teen Gothic

Hi! Normally I don’t see a lot of fellow Afro goths/Alts, I just wanted to see if you guys are still around and maybe hear about some of your experiences! Plus I also made a new community!

I'm waiting outside The Cure's show in Seattle as I type. It's a pretty eclectic grouping, but it does make my dark little heart swell with pride to see all the baby bats here, many accompanying their GenX tradgoth parents. Our subculture's future is in good hands.

Edit 2: sorry for the redundancy, I should have dug further but I’m glad that there’s different band recs in my post than the others.

I’ve already made a Spotify playlist of everything I could find if I missed anything let me know! (Sorry there’s no Christian death I’m just not a huge fan)

Hello happy pride month everyone.

There’s an old thread posted kind of about this already but it was limited to one category of LGBTQ so I was hoping to get some recommendations of music by queer musicians or queer songs. WLW, MLM, anything.

Maybe a bit too niche for such an already niche genre but here’s hoping xx

Here’s the link for reference:

Had a pretty good time. Wasn't the best show ever, but had lots of interaction with both Ben and Andrew. (I made eye contact with Andrew before the show without his sunglasses, very scary but exhilarating!) Andrews voice lived up to what I've read online, but I was pretty happy to be in his presence. Overall had a really good night!

It was a great show! They sounded really good, posed a lot for photos, I got a good spot in the crowd, and heard some of my favorite songs of all time live! If you've been hesitant to see them where you are, I'd say go for it!!
