i don't think i've ever met a real goth[views:7475][posts:70]____________________________________ [Sep 18,2006 8:18pm - sphincter ""] Cuz all the goths i know don't even listen to anything remotely goth. Hot topic is not goth, nu metal isn't either, neither is marilyn manson. Goth to me is : the cure, bauhaus, sisters of mercy, das ich, cruxshadows blutengel well u get my fuckin idea. Well i've met one but she toned down her style for college. Gaaahhh Goth has/had nothing to do with metal in the first place. Unless ur thinkin of lacuna coil, danzig, cradle of filth, tristania,nightwish, well u get my idea All the goths i've met listened to nu-metal or mislabled themselves Goth is not emo goth is not black metal. Unfortunately i think alot of faux goths go to goth clubs, gaah Goths need to get a clue do sum fukkin research. I did and true goths aren't fond of mary manson nor are depressed or envy the popular crowd Now who agrees with me? Another thing when ppl say they like industrial they DONT' mean wumpscut skinny puppy, and u get my idea Do u metallers get my drift |

Another thing when ppl say they like industrial they DONT' mean wumpscut skinny puppy, and u get my idea Do u metallers get my drift I used to hang around a lot of goths, back when the real goths listened to the real gothic music, learned German and were all in University, and some of the real gothic music was actually good (and often indistinguishable from new wave). Now they run start-up businesses, drive a Lexus or a minivan and they all have kids, and not much time to be depressed anymore. The kids today just adopted the clothes and a faux pallor of depression, they are not the real deal. Like any commercialized sub-culture, the original intent is lost in the mist of mass acceptance. Thank Burton, Gaiman, Marilyn Manson, and Depp. |

It's a black hoodie with white lettering with a C on one side and a T on the other and Cut Throat Boston over it. This guy at my work calls it my "gothic sweatshirt. " Every time I hear it all I see is red. "Ey, ey it's da gothic sweatshirt............gothic.......mosh pit.......all black..........yuk yuk yuk" and I want to explode. So I guess I can understand where you're coming from. |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 11:33am - niccolai ""] If they want to dress goth, they don't haveto absoarb every shitty aspect of the shitty lifestyle and listen to gothic music. They can have their orgy CDs if it so pleases them as far as I'm concerned. I was never one to challenge someone's 'gothhood'. |
| ______________________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 12:17pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Some of the gothic music was pretty good. |

| ______________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 1:34pm - Likety_Split ""] Goth music is fuckin' queer. Ohhh...Look at me...I'm depressed and act all sullen. Maybe you'd be a little happier without all the black eyeliner and lipstick. I gotta tip for ya...start doing drugs; solves all yoir problems. |

Maybe you'd be a little happier without all the black eyeliner and lipstick. I gotta tip for ya...start doing drugs; solves all yoir problems. That's actually not what goth music was originally about. Another uninformed stereotype. Better be careful, there's probably a black guy stealing your car stereo right now and an Indian about to receive your outsourced job. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:17pm - Likety_Split ""] you got a point. i just remember these kids in the 90's that all tried to out-goth each other and acted so lethargic and depressed that you wanted to put your fist through thier necks. kind of like the emo kids today. i guess they'll always be a fad for disillusioned kids to try and set themselves apart. |
| _____________________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:19pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Heh, I was just being a dick. No, you are right, the 90s kids aren't really goths. They got their goth fix sucking at the teat of Winona Ryder and Tim Burton movies (not that I don't like the movies). Bauhaus. Siouxsie and the Banshees. Laether Strip. Mephisto Walz. The Cure. This is some of the original goth. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:21pm - Likety_Split ""] i had a cure phase in high school. they were fuckin great. god that was depressing music. |
| __________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:22pm - niccolai ""] Dude you sound like a strung out punk rocker ranting about how 'The Ramones aren't REAL punk rawk!' |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:24pm - Likety_Split ""] they're not |
| _____________________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:25pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] The Ramones ARE real punk rock, so, no. I don't mean to sound strung out, bro, I just loathe kiddy revisionist bullshit, otherwise I'd be running around with my Slipknot and Trivium lunchboxes calling them 'metal'. That would go over well. |

| _____________________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:28pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] The synthpop/EBM scene has taken over the entire 'goth' subculture, a lot of the VNV fans aren't necessarily goths though (gamers, rivets, poppers, emos, etc). |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:30pm - Likety_Split ""] i'd give my left nut for half of that crowd. |
| _____________________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:31pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] One of the reason the EBM shows draw well is because there are so few of them. Lot of kids at Umass were into VNV/Wumpscut/etc while I was there, all would religiously attend their performances. |
| __________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:32pm - niccolai ""] I'd bust my left nut all over half of that crowd. |
| _____________________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:33pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] That would be quite a nut. Imagine what the butterbank would give you for a piece of that? |
| __________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 2:42pm - niccolai ""] I already tried that. They said something about adds and hecipitas or something.. I wasn't really paying attention. So I guess I'll haveto take my baby batter elseware. |
| _____________________________ [Sep 19,2006 3:56pm - pam ""] I like the occasional goth band, I LOVE darkwave. I've met a lot of legit goths, they're usually even more annoying and pretentious than the mall goths. |
| _____________________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 3:57pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] More pretentious, definitely, since even a naked mole rat is more pretentious than a mall goth. More annoying? Not a chance in hell. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 19,2006 4:04pm - sphincter ""] darkwave is good, ebm is good vnv nation is good. I like rivets i want to meet more, but there really aren't any at middlesex community college in bedford, there aren't alot of metallers there either i hate mcc i've been there for 3 years. Im not in hi skool, and the ramones are real punk |

A good place to meet freaky or desperate people who dress the dress and want to get laid, a poor place to meet cool goths (who have little need or desire for a social circus like the Man Ray). Still, I've gotten into a lot better conversations at Man Ray, Hell, or Haven than at the mall. We need a place like The Bank here. |

| ___________________________________ [Sep 20,2006 10:46am - Samantha ""] I definitely agree with this post, and it's exactly the reason why I haven't been to a goth club in years. I got really annoyed with the pretentious people who only play dress up as a way to get laid on the weekends. Most of them had no clue who half of the goth bands were that I would mention in casual conversation. Besides, I'm too much of a crazy bitch for most of those people to handle. They also don't share my morbid sense of humor or my love of black metal and death metal... and none of them would ever be caught drinking beer and screaming Einherjer lyrics. Some real goth bands that I actually listen to: The Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, London After Midnight, Autumn (and I'm not talking about that European doom metal band here... I'm talking about the Autumn from the U.S. that plays goth), Mors Syphilitica, Switchblade Symphony, Clan of Xymox, Sunshine Blind, Corpus Delicti, etc. |

Who the hell would sell such good stuff? As far as I'm concerned, the goth scene is dead. Most of the real goths got bored with it a long time ago, and the ones who still hang around are mostly attention whores who no one ever wanted to hang out with in the first place. |

I've met people who listen to Bauhaus, The Sisters Of Mercy, The Cure... and various other gothic bands, however they never claim the lable, and they might be depressed from time to time, but they're quite down to earth and have a great sense of humour. I myself listen to a lot of Bauhaus, The Cure... but I mix up my "standard" goth tunes with a lot of metal and darkwave. I don't think there is such a thing as a real goth... they're all gone, gone, gone. |
