Teen Gothic

Hi members,

We see a lot of people trying to post their music – relevant or not, spammed across multiple subreddits or not – on here, every single day.

Instead of trying to remove posts, which are obviously never going to stop, we've created a special day for posting your own music.

I've already outlined the basic rules (please keep it goth, etc.) in the post itself, but just to clarify, please ensure that it still fits within the subreddit rules and music genres guideline. Any dark post-punk, goth rock, deathrock, coldwave, darkwave, ethereal wave, etc. is absolutely fine!

Any genres, as per Rule 2, will be removed. So make sure to keep out metal, industrial, new wave/synth-pop, etc. as normal.

We want goth musicians to have their own space here, as this is how the subculture continues its longevity.

So, go forth and post your own music. We're dying to hear it.

So I saw somewhere, that today is one of the Bandcamp Fridays. So I was wondering if there are any must-listen Death Rock bands I should support directly through Bandcamp. I most gravitate towards the heavier acts, such as New Skeletal Faces, if that helps

Post your links to your selfies, favorite goth clothing, styles, ideas, wardrobes, and stores here. Have a killer outfit you want to show us? Or maybe that store is having a 25% off winklepickers or Demonia boots. Share it with us!

Also, have you joined r/GothFashion yet?

This is basically a missed connection kind of post, so bare with me!

Years ago I was on tumblr and involved actively in a community of goths that shared memes and fanned out over cute pics of goth musicians from the 80s. One of the people who was in the community was a user named Gorgonetta. The most I knew about them was that they were a spooky librarian and really liked Daniel Ash. Their tumblr is long since gone, and so is mine, but I think of them often.

Gorgonetta, if you're out there, send me a sign! I'm dying to know how you're doing. I think about you every time I go to the library.
