Teen Gothic

Coming onto here for recs for gothic music that (as the title describes) has an ethereal vibe but is also aggressive and grimey at the same time

I’d appreciate anything yall got, older and newer music

To better describe what I mean (just to add a bit of help),

Basically music that sounds like evil ghosts chasing you or goth music that straight up captures the feel of a nightmare. Stuff that carries an ethereal atmosphere but other pieces, mainly including the vocals, are aggressive and unhinged.

Thats basically what I mean

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]

FFO : mid 80s to 90s Cocteau Twins, Robin Guthrie on guitars in the song.
