Teen Gothic

i’ve seen quite a few people online talking about people thinking goth music is just screaming and i don’t understand why anyone would think that. if people DO really think that, what gave them that idea?

So Friday is senior prank day at my high school, and my idea is to hang up goth memes around my chemistry teacher’s classroom.

He’s my absolute favorite teacher and we share the same music taste. His favorite band in particular is Joy Division.

For context, I live on a tiny island, and it’s damn near impossible to find someone even remotely interested in a less conventional subculture. Finding someone who’s into good music on this island is an unbelievable rarity… and it’s my chemistry teacher, of all people. So because of this I think he’d appreciate a “prank” like this.

Of course, because he’s a chemistry teacher, I wanted the memes to be chemistry related. But I can’t find any online so I need help thinking of some!! U don’t need to know a lot about chemistry or anything, it can be stuff like puns abt the periodic table in relation to a goth band (especially Joy division)

This a wild request and ik it’s super random, sorry 😭 but any ideas would be appreciated cuz I got nothing

When I say the largest acts, I mean who would you consider to be the modern day Sisters/Siouxie/Cure etc, bands that define the modern day goth scene?

I'll start, the live version of joy division covering sister ray.

I’m just suddenly in the most feral mood rn & would love some new recommendations, be they good or just kinda silly. or even better, both! thanks!

My fav songs are Attica, Malarone and decoherence.
