Teen Gothic

Feel free to discuss music, fashion, events, DIY projects, etc. and anything relating to goth as long as it's in line with the subreddit rules.

Might seem like a stupid question, i'm just curious about people's opinions. There are names that are well known as being the early creators of goth; Bauhaus, Siouxie and the Banshees, Sisters of Mercy, etc. But then there are artists like Joy Division where a lot of people consider them goth, but then a lot of people within the goth community label them as post punk and not "true" goth.

Where do you draw the line, or do you see them as the same?

Hello, I will be going to a goth night at a club for the first time ever in a few weeks and I am very nervous. I am an introverted, painfully shy person so I'm probably more nervous than I should be. May I have some tips or general advice as to what I should expect? Thank you in advance!
