Teen Gothic

Question is in the title. Synthpop and other adjacent genres are fine with me 🙂

I really like the vibe of this song, is there more like it?

My boyfriend is gonna propose to me soon (relevant I promise) we've even picked out a ring together and we already know it will be a pretty small wedding, we don't have a lot of friends or even extended family who would really want to be there, so we have decided against a DJ, but I'll be honest it's also partly because I'd like to have a little more control over the music given that my tastes are what they are. So basically here it is, most if not all of the friends I'm inviting are also really into goth music, and it's also something I would want to include in the reception while everyone is dancing and having fun. Because when I personally think of dancing and letting loose, I think of goth.

But here's the thing, there will still be family members at the wedding, so essentially I'm looking for examples of goth music that won't seem partivularly abrasive or offensive to non goth adults in theyr 50s/60s. I'll be mixing them in with other music targeted more at some of our other guests so everyone will find something they'll like. I'll also take suggestions for "goth friendly but not necessarily goth" songs/ bands that some of my friends who'vebeen into goth a bit longer than I have would still likely enjoy, just to beef up the playlist a bit and have more options. It doesn't need to necessarily be anything a mainstream crowd of that age would LOVE, just something they wouldn't be too shocked to hear and wouldn't cause too much of a stir, thanks so much for the help. Bonus points for themes involving love/ romance.

Are there some songs about missing your loved one? Exept Lovesong by the cure, I know the cure. I mean more underground stuff

Recs for witty/funny goth songs that are not in the caberet/folk goth genre? Especially songs that sound serious on the surface, but are not.

Please don't recommend stuff that intentionally or ironically punches down on folks, I've never found that funny.

Lately I been kinda obsessed listening to Voodoo Church especially the songs Lullaby Curses and Brand New Death. And I find the whole idea of suicide pact between lovers incredibly romantic. Yeah I know it sounds crazy but in a way I think there is nothing more beautiful than dying together with someone you love.

Anyways other than the 2 previously mentioned songs from Voodoo Church as well as Witching Hour- Together We Die and Bauhaus- Passion Of Lovers are there any other songs that explore this specific theme.

bored of nu-metal and alt rock. put me onto some cool goth music please ❤️ i will literally listen to every song

im mad and i need a soundtrack

Not sure how to explain this better. By end of the world, I mean songs with a strong mix of emotions – despair, nostalgia, hope, watching something explode from afar and an inability to intervene. A tune that would play as the final credits start rolling by.

Think Plainsong by The Cure or Sea Swallow Me by Cocteau Twins but maybe with more edge?

I apologize for my english in advance. Thank you 🙂

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.
