You'll be ready next year


I miss the goths. Vampirefreaks was big before MySpace even. Goth stuff was everywhere back in the day. I even recall the gothic shopping haul (Helen Hellfire and Nia BollocksMonkey) in the documentary. I still know some on DeviantArt

Exactly

I have never heard of vampirefreaks.

I'm a metalhead but since I have the misfortune of being surrounded by wankers who don't know the difference I often have some wanker have a go at me for being a FUKKIN GOFF

goth girls are hawt though, not as hawt as metalhead girls but still hawt :-D

Cacoethes 24-05-2019 08:11 PM

I used to be a goth
I still like all the clothes and music!

one_step_closer 25-05-2019 01:47 PM

I think I was labelled a mosher? I never really understood all the label stuff, I just knew what music I liked.

I think I was called a grunger… I don't understand labels either!

From my experiences, people who were stout in their self-proclaimed goth status, saw themselves through their style of appearance more than what music they listened to. I've seen Evanescence and Cure fans called "goth" but not only did they never look goth, the bands themselves never liked the label even if they liked the people.

"Goth was like pantomime to me. I never really took the whole culture thing seriously...Every goth I’ve ever met has been very nice, you know? As a subculture, I think it’s full of wonderful people. But I have never liked what’s classified as goth music.” Robert Smith

"Our original Web site like in the ‘90s was called ‘We’re not goth.’ [Laughs] But I understand it, and there are plenty of goth kids that are our fans too. I think goth is kind of a silly, outdated word. I think our music is rock, first of all, but then we incorporate a lot elements that make it dark. Nine Inch Nails is a big influence. Depeche Mode. The things I have always been into that have inspired the band have always been a little bit on the darker side. I'll call it dark, but I won't call it goth, because anyone who spends three hours putting on makeup everyday isn't really thinking about anything more than that" Amy Lee

"Every goth I’ve ever met has been very nice, you know?"



I should have added that I thought so too, and that's why I can miss them
