Teen Gothic

I just got invited to a "goth baddies assemble" group on Instagram and the contents sickened me. What I didn't show here that was also in the chat was clip art of sexual acts. All from the people you see in the screenshots. It was disgusting to see, and infuriating. The constant fetishization of the subculture pisses me off on a daily damn occurrence. I reported the chat itself and the people, but I of course doubt that IG will even do a damn thing. I felt the need, amidst my agitation lmao, to come to reddit to vent about it and use it as an opportunity for discussion on how you as individuals feel about this constant issue and what you do to prevail over this and any experiences you've had related to being sexualized and objectified without your consent, when just trying to exist and mind your business.

(And if any of yall feel the desire to seek out that scum and mass report them, that would just be sweet, sweet justice 🤭 but that's just a bonus lol)

Hi guys! I have a ticket that I bought for the march violets show tonight at respectable street in WPB. I have decided to not go anymore because my anxiety is getting the best of me so please if anyone would like a free ticket so it does not go to waste dm me!

Hey guys, this sub has made me feel really inspired to write music again. So to that I say thank you all. I made this within an hour and I'm still working on flow and instrumentations but I wanted to see what y'all thought of it. Thanks!

Like the title states, I bought 2 tickets to see Twin Tribes; however, my plus one bailed. I don't want the ticket to go to waste, so here I am offering it to anyone who wants it. Just send me a dm.

Edit: just to clarify, it is only one ticket. I am still going, lol

Artoffact Records is having a free download event for some albums released before 2024- these events are rare so thought I’d post it here.

Whatever local means to you: your hometown, your state, or your country. It's fine to provide a link to your own material. Just keep it goth. Thanks in advance. 🖤

Hey community,

I make my living as musician/producer/mix engineer, a position I consider myself very lucky to be in. Last year, I offered free mixing of one song to one artist on the shoegaze board that is in need, and I’m once again offering the same thing this year, but also posting this here to get more possible entrants.

Some goth or goth-influenced/adjacent artists I've done work for include Fearing, House of Harm, Tamaryn, Topographies, Cold Showers, Glaare, Second Still, The Harrow, The Sea at Midnight and more. I truly want this to be an altruistic gift and don't want any personal benefits from this, so I won't be posting links to my sites or anything, but if you want, DM me and I can send you examples so you know I'm for real.

To submit yourself for consideration, just reply to this thread with a little background info on your project/the song you want mixed (maybe a link to the demo if you’re comfortable sharing it, or you can just dm me). Please nobody who is on label that provides budget support, or who has the financial means to get songs mixed professionally already – I really want this to help an artist that otherwise could not have their music professionally mixed.

I will pick a winner December 24 (using a random lottery system, which I will post a video of) and I will deliver a final mix within two weeks of receiving the stems/project file.
