Teen Gothic

i have heard most of the mainstream stuff like cocteau twins, the cure, and that new ethel cain album that came out recently and am looking for some more less known projects or bands to get in to that combine these genres.

I'm looking for club classics and hidden gems with lgbtq+ themes, or (preferably) by lgbtq+ artists.

Goth or goth adjacent genres only please.

(So like the Sisters doing the Abba cover for example, Sopor Aethernus or Klaus Nomi? But it can be more niche stuff too)

I have a playlist but no matter what i feel like it isn't enough. So im open to any recommendations! I am not sure if i can share my playlist but here are groups that i listen to:

1782 45 Grave The agnes circle Alien sex fiend Ash code Bauhaus The birthday massacre The birthday party Boy Harsher Buzz kull Christian death Clan of xymox Corpus delicti The cramps The cure Dead cult Darling violetta Disjecta membra Diva destruction Dystopian society Fear cult Fear of dolls Inkubus sukkubus Je t'aime Joy division Kargalar La scaltra Libitina Mephisto walz The merry thoughts Motorama Nosferatu Paralysed age Plastique noir Rendez vous Rosetta stone She past away Sex gangs children She wants revenge Siouxsie and the banshees Sisters of mercy Skeletal family Skeleton hands Specimen Suspiria Switchblade symphony Tempers This cold night Void vision

I like any kind of goth music so everything is fine!

I really like she wants revenge and sisters of mercy. Can anyone give me recommendations with the same vibes as those bands? Please and thank you 🙂

I’m been listening to the same 3 songs for months and I rlly need some new songs.

Hello there, goths/deathrockers; disrocker punk here.

I'm just getting into goth/deathrock. I'm at that song-by-song stage, and I'd say I'm only really familiar with a few bands.

Rather than the average wall of links to sort through, I figured I share what I'm discovering in the hopes someone might give me some recommendations more up my alley. Also, I like the back and forth geeking out on sharing music with someone.

So, uh, here's me so far. I'll put asterisks by the ones I'm really feeling.

Now I'm Feeling Zombified by Alien Sex Fiend.* Monitor by Siouxsie and the Banshees. * Black Sunshine by Roadside Memorial. She's Dangerous by Clan of Xymox. Gothic Girl by The 69 Eyes. The Love by Screaming for Emily. Sex Beat by Sex Beat. Empty Room by Ash Code. Evil by 45 Grave. Into the Void by Buzz Kull. Almost Nothing by Selofan. Work For Love by Ministry.*

There's more, but this works. For me, I have what I feel is a real badass taste in punk. I'd like to think I'm well versed. But that's because I had other punks to learn from. When it comes to goth/deathrock, I don't really know anyone so I have to find it all myself. It's not as fun that way. I basically got two giant ass playlists and put them together on Spotify and I've been listening and trying to develop a taste for it by slowly listening to that.

I got started because I have a Joy Divison parody shirt I fucking love, but I felt like a poser for wearing it without listening to them. I popped Unknown Pleasures on and thought it kicked ass. Been me since.

So I'm more than happy to chat up the music and wider subculture if anyone is interested. Don't be afraid to ask about punk music if you're into that too.

Also, maybe it's bad on me, but I can't really stand the Cure, so I'll just throw that out there. Maybe I don't know them enough.

Shit, thanks in advance for anyone who decides to get into it with me.

EDIT: I kiss your faces. Man, I'm happy with most of the recommendations, honestly, and some of them just straight up kick ass. Seems like I'm gonna go on a deep deathrock kick for a while.

a lot of the present day goth stuff ive seen is darkwave. who's yalls 2020's music favorites on the gothic rock side of things?

To start, hey guys I’m 30/F/Black and you can of course deduct that it wasn’t “cool” for me to have my music interests when I was younger. I first heard SOAD and then went down a rabbit hole to find great music but I don’t have enough goth knowledge to know good goth artists. I’d love some recommendations. To give you an idea of my tastes, here’s a few songs I like:

Final Service – Ritual Howls The Offering – Sleep Token Follow Your Ghost – Periphery Kalt – kælan Mikla Gallowdance – Lebanon Hanover The Catacombs – Shadow of Intent

I know a lot of those aren’t goth, which is why I need your help! Haha

Thanks in advance, you lovely people.

Hi! Pretty new to this sub reddit, but I've recently been into soviet wave (molchat doma, nuremburg ect) and just russian darkwave and goth. But I was wondering if I can get some more music recommendations! I really enjoy the genre and am always looking for new music! I also like ic3peak so hopefully someone can help! Thanks!!😄
