I never realised I could identify as goth. I always felt like one, but the fashion aspect seemed so inseparable, and I was never into that expressive, extremely black & white look, it seemed too much. Moreover, I could never afford it. But I felt SO many amazing things, when I started listening to Depeche Mode! I suddenly realised I could create my own image, that would make me feel like me. It was a HUGE step. And it didn't even matter that I don't have the money to dress myself differently, the new music I found was everything, it fulfilled me. I've found lots of bands since then, and it's really mostly darker stuff, since I've always been drawn to darker stuff. I've never had a proper name to it, to this habit, preference of mine. Now it's clear as day, that I've been goth all this time. :)

All I see with people that name themselves as 'goth' are people that try far to hard to fit in with the sub-culture. If you go back to the 80's, goths weren't actually so over the top, I mean look at Robert Smith, his image was and is still nothing like what people might class as goth. My mum is 49 and she says that back in the days when her and my dad and their friends were classed as 'goths', a goth was basically any person who wore darker clothes and listened to goth/post-punk bands. Basically what I'm saying is that nowadays I think goth is overdramatised, most people I know who are starting out in the sub-culture (early to late teens) try far far far too hard and are constantly almost trying to prove that they're goth when the sub-culture is based off of music and the clothing and style is just a separate component of that. That's just my opinion anyway, I mean no offence to anyone :)

Robert Smiths image wasn't goth because he isn't goth;) goth is just an expression of individuality, I mean there are goths that are over the top and there are weekenders and there are more toned down ones. It's what ever makes them happy. I'm sure some baby bats feel like they have to go all out to be "goth enough", though.
@unidentifman15148 жыл бұрын
I’m a man who’s 44 years old. I’ve seen the development and changes in the scene. Yes, it all started with Punk, there’s no doubt about that! But Punk was socially and politically related and was all based on anarchy. The most bands in the beginning brought aggressive and rebellious music. They were almost against everything in this world, couldn’t stand each other and brought chaos. The next episode, which is more the foundation of now days Gothic music, where very dark but at the same time more realistic and stood with they’re both feet on the ground. There were still some sparks of rebellion, anti-commercial and a bit anti-politic parts left in the music but with a complete different view and expression. More and more bands made music about social conflicts and actual problems (like, for example the cold war and the upcoming atomic energy and weapons). But, even the music was dark and for many people depressive and negative, the only statement was to confront the world with the reality in the eighty’s. On the other hand, aggression disappeared in the music, between the bands and also the fans of this culture. This culture had different names all over the world, from post-punk, new wave, dark wave and also for the first time, some bands used the name Gothic! I don’t want to upset anyone, but you could called it also soft-punk for hippies. Sorry for my words but I use these terms, trying to explain the difference. The music made statements about what was going on in the world but in a more “mature” way without any form of aggression. The first Goths where born! And I remember them as a non violent, respectful, peaceful but well informed kind of people. Freedom of speech, respect for expression and respect for each other’s choice of preferred bands and music. Respect for expression was also for the way they represented themselves , with make-up, without make-up, hairstyle and clothing’s. One thing we shared was our favorite color, namely black (sometimes combined with a touch of another color). And, actually, since then, not much is changed! Of course there are a lot off new bands, each with their own sound. But the basics are still very much comparable with what I’ve seen through the years. I myself never used make-up, I do restyle my hair when I go to a party and I’m still dressed in black. I don’t follow the mainstream basics like fashion, hairstyles, home decoration, or whatever you see in popular magazines, the internet and television commercials. I do speak about my interpretation of all day’s things, but if I see and hear other’s don’t agree with me and find my way of thinking and living as not social, mainstream, crazy, weird or whatever, I remain silent. I’m will never fight against others opinions but if it those not fit in my life, I will not follow. And if they blame me for that, then they have a problem, not me, because I don’t care. Manly all Goth’s I know have an equal point of view and act more or less the same way. And in my opinion, that’s what being a Goth stands for. Fact is that younger Goth’s more often dress up and use make-up the way we know it. And I have only respect for them! It’s beautiful and sometimes I also wear clothes or accessories from the Gothic store. And I try also, from time to time, the more impressive pieces but if they don’t fit me, I don’t buy them. And after all, I’m respected by other Goth’s, even the “real dressed up”! And that is why this culture is so beautiful too me since years! I probably am and shall die like a true Goth! It’s in my heart and veins! Sorry for the errors I’ve made in this text. I’m from Belgium and only trying to do my best in English. Make love, enjoy the darkness and live your own life! Greetings!

I hate when musicians get offended by being described as goth. Goth... really is just a word to describe something dark. Like a book about murder in the dreary depressing Victorian times gets called a gothic novel. A building that is creepy looking is described as being gothic. In a way, goth is just another word for dark and there is nothing wrong with that. They probably deny being goth out of modesty. They dont wanna act like they are a part of some sort of fad or group.

I have always loved alot of the subculture and really got into it quite a bit when I was younger. But the music was always a bit of an issue for me since that seems to be where the biggest snobs and elitists are. I mean don't get me wrong I like Joy Division but can we quite badmouthing anything that is is not 40 years old? I mean my musical taste has largely moved on to stuff like symphonic metal with very dark and decidedly gothic style but many self described goths (particularly of my generation) look down on it because it does not sound like something popular and relevant 4 decades ago. Sad to say but if a subculture identifies strongly to it's music if it wants to stay relevant so does the music.

Fashion faves: traditional, Victorian. Excellent authors and films that you chose.

None of these bands started out like oh we are starting a Goth band. They became part of the subculture because of darker themes in their music and spooky, cloak and dagger image. I personally don't see the problem with being labelled Gothic. Perhaps with the traditional, more popular post punk/'goth' bands it's just a need to be diverse and not wanting to be boxed in? The bands mentioned in this video are however all a huge influence on the Goth scene and it's a long standing joke with Andrew 'I'm not a goth' Eldritch denying his musical influence has anything to do with the scene, most people I know just laugh when they hear that. Just listen to First and last and Always and Floodland, both albums definitely have a very dark, haunting Gothic atmosphere on them. Most alternative, post punk fans I know don't have a problem being called Gothic, I just embrace it now as do my friends 🤗👻

Before I watch the video, let me share my view of goth: Elegant Macabre And scorpio-vibes You love reading old and almost dark poems, Edgar Allen Poe for example. You listen to instrumental music that would have been quite the hit in the 18th century. Classical and opera music is also a big thing. An example of a favourite author would be Stephen King. Dark and classy as a style, but enjoys the comfort of baggy and black clothes. Intercut patterns and philosophical. Love the dark things in life and appreciate the light things. We'll see if I am correct or if my view is wrong once I watched the video.

I've just started reading Anne Rice's "Vampire Chronicles" which is amazing. My favorite goth band would definitely be Siouxsie and the Banshees.

Carlie Whittemore How you present yourself doesn't really matter. The culture itself is based on the music. Don't get too caught up in labels, though. Just be happy with who you are.

I love your sweater, and this proves that not all goths need to always wear black

Great video! Do you also have some gothic-industrial artists or bands to recommend? Maybe something similar to Emilie Autumn or And One? :)

actually I was back in Portsmouth, England in 1977 there was Goth, Punk and Emo music as well as fashion. Although it was a mix of the music and fashion. A bit of biker leather with the Goth and the Punk was more of colored hair with more blue jeans. All of them use to wear steel toe boots mostly some punks did wear sneakers. Although most of the bands back then did records but those records were mostly distributed by the bands theirself (like a few groups here in America for example like God's Girlfriend, Voodoo Glow Skull, Dead Kennedy's, Skinny Puppy, DMZ, Salt & Pepper, Pink, Will Smith before they got discovered).

the only Author you mentioned that I didn't know was Mathew Gregory but how you described the book sounds amazing and Anne Rice is my absolute favorite Author and I love H.P. Lovecraft as well!

Do you need to be that deep into the music to be goth,or can you just like a few songs and still enjoy the subculture?
