Teen Gothic

I might be going to a concert soon. It's not like a huge band so the members will probably hang out around the merch table like last time I saw them and I'd like to give them a little gift but I have no idea. Maybe some pins, patches? I will message the venue or the band before to make sure they can actually take gifts of course.

Post your links to new releases from 2000 or later, let's give some focus to new music. In the list below, you'll find some new releases from the past few weeks!

​

Here's some great new post-punk/goth releases:

Withering Night – "Withering Night" [Goth Rock/Blackgaze] (China)

Soma Cake – "Senza" [Post-Punk/Goth] (Mexico)

GLASSHOUSE – "GLASSHOUSE" [Darkwave] (Scotland, UK)

Morgana – "Contemporaneità" [Deathrock] (Italy)

юность-1201- "Организованная преступность" [Russia] (Post-Punk)

When I was younger, it was absolutely not cool to say that you’re goth. At all. It has become a label now with lots of hashtags. So, how important is it to you all? Do you tell people you’re goth? Is it important at all?

People today, it seems, love to have lots of micro labels, that form some type of curated identity. I know that using labels will garner likes and “engagement” online, but, what about real life? Personally, I rarely get asked and when I do, I will say something like, “Yeah, I do listen to goth music and support the scene.” I cringe a bit when I see someone wearing a shirt that says something like, “goth ghoul gang,” or something. I just wanted to see everyone else’s thoughts on the importance of the label.

Hey, I'm fairly new to the scene and would like to find more songs/bands similar to the ones below, with a "raw" and darker sound in general, please help!!

One hundred years – The Cure https://youtu.be/MqYVmTmJEfA

Incubus Succubus – Xmal Deutschland https://youtu.be/rc4NkNHyYpQ

Burn – The Sisters of Mercy https://youtu.be/M3nciAZPCbU

Allegedly, dancefloor tragedy – Suspiria https://youtu.be/BTj7U22EF70

Lost – Horror Vacui https://youtu.be/qte6yRpdXH4

Goth gothy goth goth because this is r/goth and we are contractually obligated to post on theme all the time else it breaks some law or something, otherwise one of the other mods will kill this thread over relevancy. Do you know people sometimes report Unofficial Seething Sunday as if it will get it removed? That's funny.

Yes I know they aren’t actual/proper/true goth and more like goth metal but whatever. Looking for either more specifically like that or “actual” goth with similar sound. Specifically the super dark and heavy bass and the super deep almost droning male lead vocals. And the low key auto tune shit TO- does with the vocals in some songs

I’m not really a goth or at least I don’t think of myself as one but I will say this stuff is my jam once November swings around. It’s so fitting for when all the green turns to brown and it gets dark earlier. And smoking a cigarette to this music in the depths of winter on a full moon? The world lit up by the moonlight off snow as the world is like frozen in glass? Chills
