Teen Gothic

Hello, I really enjoy ethereal goth, specifically for the beautiful “heavenly voices” singing featured in artists such as Cocteau Twins, Dead Can Dance, Love Spirals Downwards, etc.

I am wanting to hear gothic rock or post-punk with male/masc vocalists that have the same soothing, melodic, ethereal vocal tones as those artists. I want to hear very smooth crooned or chant-like singing, as opposed to the more vibrato-heavy or gravelly singing that is a bit more common for masc vocalists of the genre.

Here are a few examples of songs that sum up what I’m looking for.

Lowlife – Wild Swan

Dead Can Dance – The Arcane

Lycia – Drifting

Eden – Healingbow

Emerald Vein – Existence

[disclaimer: I am already familiar with This Mortal Coil, Black Tape for a Blue Girl, and Soul Whirling Somewhere. The vocal styles fit, but musically, I want it to still sound more goth/post-punk oriented]
