Teen Gothic

Just wondering

I do enjoy how melodramatic Nosferatu is, but sometimes it just doesn’t work for me. I can’t really decide if I love it or hate it. Also the production/mixing really drags.

I go through this sometimes. I listen to the music, participate in everything that’s with the subculture/community, etc. I usually get called a poser at school because I listen to J-goth and other random reasons. but I listen to all the goth classics. Sometimes I think these things happen more often ever since the term “tik tok goth police” became a thing. Just a random thought. What are your thoughts and comments about this? (Hopefully this entire thing I type doesn’t confuse anyone I barely post on here)

It doesn't need to be uplifting. But maybe just really catchy, or soothing, or sad in a way that you commiserate with. Mood-congruent is fine. What entertains you, or validates you, or is just really entertaining and pleasurable to listen to?

Bonus points if the song(s) you recommend are more recent, released after 2010 or so. I've semi-recently returned to goth after a LONG absence, so newer music is particularly welcome.

But old school is fine too!

Thank you so much! 🖤

Pain is a must, then I’d go for Amphetamine Logic by Sisters and Nocturne by Paralysed Age

Whatever local means to you: your hometown, your state, or your country. It's fine to provide a link to your own material. Just keep it goth. Thanks in advance. 🖤
