Teen Gothic

I’ve been trying to figure out what pedal they are using for this song. I think it’s overdrive/distortion combined with some kind of delay. Almost has that Robin Guthrie/Cocteau twins sound.

Thoughts?

Here’s the link: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=EAbUDG7EYAs&si=H7xfDol8UAu2eWqy

it was a box containing Gothic Beauty Magazine and makeup.

The covers are really good haven’t listened to the whole thing yet tho

Like everyone already knows goth women are heavily sexualised and misperceived, but ^{every single time} I look for anything goth related on Reddit, I’m just met with so much gross and vile sexual fetish content and it just reminds me all the time, it’s so hard to escape. I literally cannot stand these onlyfans airheads selfishly using the goth label to attract even more internet degenerates to make money and then make actual goths look bad. It’s so enraging since ‘goth’ has been such a big part of me for so long since I was little and means so much to me, just for egirls to snatch it and shit on it, turning me into a walking fucking kink.

Sorry for the rant, I know I made a post a bit similar to this a while ago too but UGH I just cannot deal any more.

I (M) have identified as goth most of my life, but I struggle with feeling like I don't belong because I don't dress like a stereotypical "goth".

Although I do wear a decent amount of black (which I LOVE), it's generally not very "alternative" style.

I don't have tattoos, and no piercings, etc. (though in my heart I do)

Many days I look and dress like a typical person. Like, most days if someone saw me they would never guess I was goth. I know lots of people who identify as goth could say the same, but still.

I DO however have dark, witchy, goth decor in my apartment, and I'm a regular at my city's local goth club (the one place I do dress in an outwardly goth style).

But I still feel like an imposter sometimes. Do others struggle with that? I know this might all sound superficial, maybe it's just in my head. Other perspectives might help me. Thanks!

Hear me out. Somebody Else by the 1975. I've been listening to it a lot recently and I feel like the lyrics and mood of the song would fit in with goth music if it were made into a goth cover.
