Teen Gothic

What are some less common or interesting fusions or combinations with goth music worth mentioning? I'm not going to consider gothabilly for this thread and please don't list industrial, metal bands or well known and commonly or recently discussed music.

It's either goth music with a obscure or unlikely fusion or genre ex. African tribal music for example or vice versa.

Post your links to new releases from 2000 or later, let's give some focus to new music. In the list below, you'll find some new releases from the past few weeks!

​

Here's some great new post-punk/goth releases:

Absencia – "Presencia" [Darkwave] (Chile)

DRIM – "Weird Thoughts" [Darkwave] (France)

The True Faith – "Running Away" [Post-Punk] (Massachusetts, U.S.A)

I made a little weirdo and he is going to be the weirdest fucking kid in preschool. I can already see him showing up with Siouxsie shade of yellow eyeshadow.

We do a lot of sign language so our kid can sign more than he can talk for his age.

He signs "No" when we get in the car and my very normal husband puts on the radio music. He will keep signing no until we put on my Gothic Playlist.

He bounces very gently side to side while listening. He signs the words 'yes, like, calm and more' when we aks him if he is okay. He signs the word 'calm' more than anything.

Both of us know why he thinks this is calming music. He has probably heard these songs since he could hear in the womb. His surrogate use to sit in the living room while I cleaned and I always play my goth music while cleaning.

He may not have my DNA but there is no DNA test needed to prove that he is 100000000% my son.

My husband is jokingly upset with me because our other child is also a goth. A Gothic witch who practices witchcraft. She now lives happily with her witch girlfriend and goth boyfriend in their little witchy coven.

My husband told me this morning while our son was jamming out "All I want is one normal kid like me, but I guess that was wishful thinking when I married you".

My husband also said he loves watching our kid vibe to my "spooky music" (as he calls it) because he has the same happy look as I do when I am vibing out.

What is one song on our goth Playlist that makes gives you those happy goth feelings? My husband loves Spellbound because he says it sounds like the "Gothic spell" I put on him to make him fall in love with me and my goth style.

But now I am listening to them right now and I LOVE it! Gallowdance is one of my favorites

Damn y'all fr downvote me for saying I like Lebanon Hanover 😩

I know this sounds stupid and feel free to downvote or remove if you don’t like this post. I need to start by saying I am fully aware that goth is mainly about the music. However, I am just curious do any of you just listen to the music and do nothing else. I want to go to an event but I feel like I won’t know how to carry myself at one. I really like the music and would love to meet people who like this music , however, I like so many other stuff so I can’t really call myself goth though. Ok… I am rambling at this point. Anyone just in it for the music? Anyone relate to anything else I said? Any different experiences? Any questions, comments, suggestions welcome!

Edit: I realized I was very vague when I said other stuff but by other stuff I mean other genres of music( fun fact: I got into goth through metal…it’s complicated)

A more in-depth look at the usual “What’s your favorite X?”

I’d like to know what exactly makes you like the culture’s music. Is it the subtle -yet protagonistic- bass of many songs? The danceable snare beats? The gloomy atmosphere? Let me know!

Bonus 1: What elements make your favorite albums stand out from the rest?

Bonus 2: Nothing is perfect. What elements or trends in goth music do you dislike?

In a similar vein (badumtish) to a recent thread I saw asking about goth music recs with vampires/vampire themes im wondering what if any goth music is about werewolves or werewolf adjacent themes?

Thanks.
