Goth(s): Classic or Dud

Scary comments

you british and your mods and your rockers.

Fuck yeah. We are rocking now. I just got a goth record in the mail from Europe and I am going to post it to my blog.

I saw the Bauhaus tribute band and you didn't.

You try so hard, but you just can't be more goth than me.

YOU TRY SO HARD

But give it up, you will never be more goth than Bimble. Forget it.

I would very much like to know of this blog to which gothics records are posted! Well, I know OF it – I suppose I mean I would like to know the URL.

lolololz

There's even a gothic parents forum on the web - and a gothic search engine. I believe you can even order black milk, or bats for your house.

Black milk??

For your Korn flakes.

lol

Black milk of daybreak

Goth or not?

You must:

1. Be The Goth
2. Feel The Goth
3. Repeat

I bought a bottle of wine tonight from Spain that turned out to have a black cork in it. Now maybe black corks are normal things in some part of the world or other, but they're damn well not anything I've seen before. This as further proof that it is impossible to compete with Bimble's inherent gothness. You have been warned.

dammit

i went to a goth party last friday, and it was very strange but kind of fun. they played an entire Christian Death album, and some old-time Bauhaus shit, then it sort of went the way of 80s-postrock dance party, which is not inherently goth, but pretty good nonetheless.

was it a birthday party

I've got a gentle respect for hot weather goths.

That is commitment.

Lucian is a sanguine vampire, not an energy or psi vampire like his mom.

Goths in Brisbane are hilarious/awesome, they walk around with black lace umbrellas to keep the sun off

I was just thinking the same thing - especially when i got to this photo.

There's a lot of effort gone on there.

Oh I see - no linking, eh?

Well, it's here anyway.

Outside, maybe at at stretch, LARPers dressing steampunky at a con or something. But ffs. Nobs.

GBOTW is still GOING? wow. Couple of my friends were in that years ago, I think.

Well, when I say friend, I mean "horrible cow who assaulted me at a nightclub and is a basket case that I worked with", but whatevs.

incredibly, yes.

Its funny looking at the late 90s images, theyre all fairly down to earth, proper old school girls. The recent stuff is all fetish porn and suicide girl shit.

finger on pulse

- What I admire about that 'gothopotamus' person upthread, and the other person in the photo, is that the look transcends what they've got to work with physically. There's a dark, glamourous ideal that they're going for, and, whether or not that's a good ideal, the devotion to it against all the odds (short fat male w/ eyeliner for example) is surely Classic.

- Mystery and imagination are precious even in their most degraded forms, true/false

- Goth doesn't age well VERSUS why the hell not be 32, pushing your kid in a pram, wearing a black top hat and army boots

The older I get the more I appreciate sullenness and misanthropy.

Goth at the BBC! Sex Gang Children! Lols a plenty and some great music!!!
