Teen Gothic

i’m looking for goth bands that originate from Los Angeles, preferably more niche bands! i just live in the general area and i want to support smaller goth bands, but more popular recs are also welcome

Anybody ever hear about or want to lovingly reminisce on the now legendary Emo, Goth, Punk Wars of Metro Insurgentes Mexico City, Mexico? Did you know that in 2008, the Insurgentes Mexico City metro station was the site of an hours-long fight between emo, punk, metal, and goth groups? The police couldn’t stop the grouping. Then suddenly a group of Hare Krishnas joined in and only they were able to disperse the crowds lol! This is one of my favorite endings of all time. Thought people here might appreciate it. Heres a video too, not the best translation but better than nada: https://fb.watch/lugBvlf8PH/?fs=e&s=cl

My picks would be Disintegration and Floodland, but I’d love to hear other people’s choices, especially if it’s lesser known stuff.

Recently been through a rough and very toxic relationship and…i just want to relax to some music 🤷 being cheated on sucks

One thing I generally notice is that people tend to over look the hidden gems of goth music coming from Latin America. I found out about this band from Chile not that long ago. They are definitely worth a try. Here is the link: Vacvvm (the band name)

If you have any other cool underground band suggestions from Latin America, please share them! I am always open to new music.

Hey, I don't know why but I felt like I should post this here. I'm trying really hard not to lose my mind. I'm planning to leave my boyfriend. I've been seeing him for almost a year and things aren't going so well. He's turned abusive. I'm stuck in a town 2 hours away from my hometown with no way to get back.

I'm disabled and can no longer drive. He's taking advantage of that. He treats me like a paycheck and meal ticket. I've broken up with him several times but he refuses to accept it. He's even said that I don't know what is best for me. He said that breaking up isn't what I really want and has said that he doesn't care what I want, I'm not allowed to leave him.

I'm depressed and I just want to go home. I have somewhere to stay in my hometown but no way to get there. I've called the domestic violence shelter here and they will not help me because I'm wanting to leave the county. I just don't know what to do anymore. I never consented to moving here. We used to come down on the weekends to visit friends. In February, he waited until we got here to tell me that we weren't going back.

He refuses to accept reality. He thinks I'm going to marry him and everything will be fine. I don't want to marry him. In fact, I just want to be single from now on. The only thing that keeps keeps me sane is dressing up and listening to Bauhaus and Peter Murphy. I also like Killing Joke, Sisters of Mercy and The Mission UK among others. I just want to talk to you, my people. I'm not asking for money, I just need support. Thank you for reading.

It could be a product of my ADHD or just that I have little knowledge about certain things. I've been a part of the goth culture for quite a while, and sometimes in frustrates me to be unable to easily deduce between what's what.
