Teen Gothic

I am obsessed with that song. I love the opera-esque vocals and the atmosphere of it. It sort of gives me the same vibe as Even in Death by Evanescence (I know Evanescence isn't goth lol). I would love recommendations for songs with a similar vibe by any band. I couldn't find any other songs by Fields of Nephilim that I liked as much as Mourning Sun, even on the same album, but I haven't heard all their songs yet.

Hey, I'm in a really rough place in my life right now, since June, but especially in the past four months. Amphetamine Logic by the Sisters of Mercy puts music and lyrics to the emotions I'm feeling right now, and I would love to listen to some other songs with similar vibes. Thanks! <3

Some of my favorites right now are Vampyre Erotica by Inkubus Sukkubus, Out of Control and Red Flags and Long Nights by She Wants Revenge, Marian by Sisters of Mercy, She's in Parties, Lucretia my Reflection, Sacrifice by london after midnight, and classics like that. When I get sad, I like to listen to goth classics that are insanely popular because they're comfort songs from when I first got into goth music years ago. (Ik not all of them are like classic goth or even fully goth, but to me they are because I associate them with my memories of first getting into the goth subculture lol)

edit for spelling

Or any ethereal, atmospheric goth music you could recommend. Thanks in advance☺️

Specifically similar to the album Medusa. That shit is ethereal and I need more.

i’m semi new to the scene and still diving in and trying to find more bands i like. the vocals on Only Theatre of Pain make it one of my favorite albums i’ve ever heard. the way Rozz drags out vocals in an almost Flaboyant way at times (?) contributes a lot to that. if that’s something i enjoy can anyone reccomend me bands with a similar style of singing? or that i may like based on that?

any albums/bands with a similar sound to cinema strange?

It feels weird to call myself a ‘baby bat’ when I’m almost 30, and I don’t know if that’s even the proper term for a newbie? So let’s just go with: I’ve been in the fashion side of the punkesque subcultures since I was in highschool, I was all about pop-punk music as a kid as well as gothic metal. It was only recently that I’ve started to dip my toes into honest to goodness goth music. I figured if I wear the clothes I should probably listen to the music, or at least try it. I like it, it will probably have a hefty presence on my spotify wrapped this year. I just suck at finding music, and Spotify doesn’t know the difference between Goth and Gothic Metal. It keeps giving me Ghost and Evanescence, which while I love those bands, they are not quite the vibe!

A few recommendations were given to me a while ago when I really didn’t know anything, based on my preference for strong melody, and background with pop-punk and gothic metal, and one that really stuck to me was Inkubus Sukkubus. My first song from them was ‘Wytches’ which I’m sure is a surprise to absolutely no one, and I went from there. I’ve been going through their discography slowly. They have a lot of things I like in any genre: a strong melody, clear lyrics. I particularly love the album Belladona & Aconite because of the addition of symphonic elements, and sometimes what almost sounds like surf guitar in places?

Yeah I’d like to find more bands with similar sound. Or even just more bands that have a strong melodic component. I have a background in classical music as well (violin) so bands that add in symphonic elements and/or bowed strings are also welcome.

Or like idk, recommend to me your favourite band and tell me why it’s your favorite I’m here to learn new things.

Its by far one of the most memorable deathrock albums ive listened to and i havent really found anything similar to it since. Id love to get some recommendations 🙂

My current favorite band is Specimen, but the other bands I listen to don’t really sound like them. I think I just like goth bands with a little punk influence.
