Teen Gothic

Any religious/ spiritual goths here? If so, what’s your faith? I myself am a non- dominantional Christian Goth

To start, hey guys I’m 30/F/Black and you can of course deduct that it wasn’t “cool” for me to have my music interests when I was younger. I first heard SOAD and then went down a rabbit hole to find great music but I don’t have enough goth knowledge to know good goth artists. I’d love some recommendations. To give you an idea of my tastes, here’s a few songs I like:

Final Service – Ritual Howls The Offering – Sleep Token Follow Your Ghost – Periphery Kalt – kælan Mikla Gallowdance – Lebanon Hanover The Catacombs – Shadow of Intent

I know a lot of those aren’t goth, which is why I need your help! Haha

Thanks in advance, you lovely people.

In 1989, I was a 14yr old kid and really fancied this girl in another school, who was into The Cure. After weeks of barely speaking to her, I went and bought Disintegration, in the hope of having something in common. I listened to it over and over. Soon after, without plucking up the courage to speak to her, her family moved to a different city and I never saw her again. But the music stuck with me. Within the next 3 years, I had all albums by The Cure and had seen them live twice. Quite a superficial way to get into the music but I found my home.

I've been listening to the Gothic Sounds of Nightbreed a lot lately, and I think the two Nekromantik tracks are my favorites, but I can't seem to find much about them online. Is anyone in this sub familiar with them? I'd love to know more! Children Go Bang is the one I've been jamming to quite often 🙂
