Teen Gothic

I have been looking for bands that are kind of within the realm of like d-beat/deathrock/anarcho-punk crossover??? Like goth-beat? Bands like Pawns, Palladists, Rudimentary Peni? Neeeed recommendations desperately

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.

What an album. Fantastic. I love the heavy Depeche Mode influence, the deep vocals, the dancey bits. Just overall good listen start to finish.

I know it had a Pink Floyd influence but besides that I was thinking any other bands and even artists. I have come across some bands that sounded close enough like Lycia (Well kind of). I would say it doesn't have to be goth but that would probably break the second rule.

I find it ironic that the writers of these movies/series never bother to show the music that the "goth" characters are listening to or even posters in their room since most of them are high school kids.

I understand that you can't tell if a certain character is goth if she doesn't look goth, but at least give a hint about the music she listens to, it will make a lot more sense.

It's always the gothic look and some kind of self defense "I have no friends and I hate everyone" altho I'm personly a bit like that in reality lol it's a bit insulting to this community as a whole.

I just got home from City Record Club and the Save The Cranker Rally. I didn't play a single goth song today though you could argue a couple are close. Love and Rockets So Alive single? Nope, I played the B side – Bike! And that sounds like some sort of weird blues/jazz/rock thing. Plus rock, techno, post punk, new wave, disco and a Yamaha 70s organ rendition of Popcorn. -10 goth points me.

The rally was a death march to Parliament House and onto the Crown and Anchor Hotel itself. And I stopped at a record store on the way. But what did I buy? $ 2 bargain bin K-Tel compilations for a Record Club set I'm calling "The worst sounding vinyl set ever" using nothing but K-Tel compilations.

6 hours on my feet mostly on concrete. My feet want to disown me, my back aches, I was getting stabbing pains in my leg and I have a pain in the diodes down my left side.

But we got word the planned demolition has been voided by the state premier so the pub is saved! The best alternative/live music venue in the city is here to stay.

How are you doing?

does the goth scene have a relationship with the gay leather scene? if so, in what ways? where can i find art/resources in this specific niche? does anyone here belong to both subcultures? do you wanna start a shitty band or zine?

I live in a small city in Spain, and there is nothing to do as a goth. There are rock clubs, but they won't play the slightest bit of post-punk, goth rock or any other related subgenres. It's so frustrating.

The worst part is that this entire country lacks goth scene everywhere. Big cities (Madrid and Barcelona) have a few goth nights every now and then, that's it. I believe in Barcelona there's a bit more going on (never been there), but still, it feels completely dead.

I think there are a lot of frustrated goths in Spain, just like me. It isn't that rare and we have some nice local bands. But where is the scene? I just want to have fun in a goth club, dress up and dance to my favourite music :/

Anyone who is in this situation (I know there are people as it's a common topic in this sub hehe): write about it. What do you do to enjoy music outside? How do you meet other goths?

And for the ones who live in places with a goth scene: where is it? Tell us frustrated people your tales. Make us jelaous

I just wanna hear your thoughts ^{^}

Hi I just crave for in person contacts with people who likes similar music to me.

I actually love the whole discography of Killing Joke and The Soft Moon, but I'm also crazy about several songs from: Skinny Puppy, Drab Majesty, the Cure, Asylum Party, The Danse Society, NIN, Slowdive, Joy Division, The Birthday Party, Hocico, I adore DJ sets of Alec Empire (ATR).

I said Poland because I'm already living here but I'd love to chat in English lol.
