Teen Gothic

Has anyone had experience in the goth scenes on both sides of the Atlantic? I'm curious to hear how they differ – or if they don't. My theory is that the internet has made them more similar, but that they had more divergence before the internet made it easier to bridge the ocean gap.

I'd also be curious to hear perspectives from other parts of the world. I guess I find it interesting hearing how a subculture can develop differently through geography and wider culture.

It seems to me that a lot of things were in the works even before the first albums were released – and even when albums were released how did news about the new underground culture travel since there was no internet and no tv coverage (or was there international TV coverage?)? Did record stores carry both British goth and American deathrock without time delay after release?

I honestly think that if there hadn't been any means to transfer news about goth it would have been born nonetheless both in the UK and the US (and other countries) since a counterpart to 80s mainstream excess euphoric culture was needed. Anybody agree?

I try and post this playlist every year

Indigegoth US/Canada

If there is a Native goth band that isn't on this list feel free to comment recommendations!

In honor of Native American history month, I’d like to find goth, postpunk, deathrock, or darkwave bands with Native American members. My partner put together a compilation once before but I want to expand on it! The bands I’m aware of already are Cliff & Ivy, Medusa Stare, Mystic Priestess, and Blood Dance.

Does anyone know more? Thank you all in advance!

There were only maybe two answers I received but since getting into Djing more it's growing so I made a playlist. All bands fall under the goth umbrella from New Wave to Deathrock.Indigegoth Spotify Playlist

Please enjoy and if you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them!
