I FINALLY FOUND IT!!!<3 can't believe it was this band.....
I heard it on the Butterfly Effect when he wanted Thumper and the Gothic girl to get off his bed and was like "gotta find it".... fuck it's BAUHAUS!!!!! :DDDD
I'm 16 and and Bauhaus has been one of my favourite bands since 13 along with The Birthday Party, Sisters of Mercy, some early Cure, Current 93, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Asylum Party and so on. There are still some teens who refuse to consume hypocritical figureheads of Hot Topic and Black Veil Brides.
@DuskAndHerEmbrace13 Don't be ignorant, BVB is good, Bauhaus is good too, you just have a different taste in music, all music is good, our tastes in music are different. ;)
@Karunadevidasi oh freind maybe i know you so a big hugs couse i was their every week an no their is nothing like these places now and the young genaration has no Idea or will they ever
for some reason i randomly decided to look up the lyrics to this song, and they didn't look right to me, so i had to give it a listen. at the end when peter's repeating the word 'pretentious', i though he was saying 'love itches' for the longest time!
Even funnier story I'm 47! Ha ha beat that. Saw Bauhaus in Liverpool in very early 80s. Supported by a band called the Birthday Party - lead singer one Nick Cave. Listen to their album Junkyard. His band got the shit beaten out of them outside as they rubbed up the scousers the wrong way. Still remeber it. Fondly. Just seen that Pete Murphy is in one of them popular vampire flicks. Sad, really sad. In The Flat Field still one of best albums ever made.
I used to own this on a vinyl 45. It had the song-words printed on the packaging, which quite blatantly weren't the same as the words actually sung in the song. I never worked out all the words. Before I bought it I had it on a cassette and didn't know the song title so I thought the chorus was "dog entrails", which I thought was so good I was quite disappointed to find it was dark entries. The term 'goth' apparently comes from a word used in a music review. Bauhaus pretty much set the standard.
It's just annoying though. It's not like anyone deserves a medal. It just sounds really petty to be like "I'm 13 and I think pop music sucks" that's not a big deal, it means you have ears and a brain.
SPECTACULAR ! Pure gothic reflection !! Interesting comparing their lighting style to that of Sisters ; theirs is natural darkness blended with distinctive beams of white light ; Sisters have none of that, just a flood of multi-cloloured light !
Ahhh the memories I taped this track on an old C90 tape on a hand held recorder in a prefab at the back of Nene College in Spring 1979 before they'd even laid any vinyl down...it's in my bloody attic somewhere...think it's got Bella...Telegram Sam and another track 'Love Life' that I don't think they ever put on vinyl!
Can,t understand everyone trying to pigeon hole group,s like the Bauhaus ,Killing Joke ,etc .The whole point of this music was it was totally different and a breath of fresh air and it still is today.
don't think people in the newest generation of bands perform like this. really, there are no bowies, iggys or murphys willing to get raw and be theatrical. it just doesn't happen. bauhaus is timeless.
@DesertTrvlr I'm sure there are some artists out there who still do, yet people don't fully appreciate that kind of thing anymore...just look at what is popular mainstream wise. I still and will always appreciate an artist who is as creative and interesting as those you have listed.
well i love goth music and punk music but i think marilyn manson is ok singer i adore some of his songs i mean he is not real goth but he is kinda good shock rocker (but he will never be near of alice cooper cuz alice is the king!) but i prefer old music better than we have today anyway
I'm an old punk/death rocker. 36 actually and the cure, siouxsie, bauhaus, christian death, jesus and mary chain and on an on were the punk/death rock "goth" then. MM and NIN ruined the entire scene. MM and NIN appeal to the dumb kids. "heavy metal" kids back in the day. Although it was fun to dance to NIN in 89. You kids walking around in Hot Topic garb are all posers. It's way too normal and accepted now.
The cure and jesus and mary chain? Don't get me wrong, I like those bands a lot, but I never consider them as "goth" or deathrock, but punk rock, sure. Anyway, you're right; MM and NIN are more like a "simplistic" versions of Christian death, bauhaus, siouxsie, and other classic post-punk/ death/ "goth"rock bands.
@tdoesntmatter: Agreed. I grew up listening to bands like Siouxsie, Bauhaus, and Killing Joke, and I don't even consider people like Manson and NIN to be "goth." It's strange and annoying how the term "goth" has become so misused since the '90s. The term "goth" wasn't even in common use back in the '80s. Bands like Bauhaus and Siouxsie certainly didn't refer to themselves as "goth." Now, the word is used to describe pretty much anyone wearing black.
Yes! You are absolutely correct. I remember the term goth in the 80's, but it was not a household "term". Mainly we were just called New Wave, post modern or death rock at times. I wore all the black and had the stick up fucked up hair. In the 80's we were true freaks. It's just so mainstream, ridiculous and well ugly these days. I don't dress like that anymore, but I still have a little black heart!
@tdoesntmatter Yes, I know exactly what you mean. The word "goth" was definitely not a household term back in those days, and people who were actually goth did not self-identify as "goth." Yes, we were freaks back then, but in an artsy way. Now, "goth" is strangely more mainstream yet associated with violent, self-destructive, and over-the-top behavior. The bands that are considered "goth" now simply don't have the artistic, literary sensibilities of the bands that we grew up listening to.
@avocate201 Amen. I miss those days. They were brilliant! I still have an occasional, "Candle night". Just me, myself and the music! They are quite fun in an unhappy way of course :)
Yeah, I'm agreeing with everyone down there. In highschool, all the goths are the "Marilyn manson" and "slipknot" kids sayin "LOL I'M SO GOTH!! I AM BADASS!!! " I try to get them to listen to this, along with the cure, siouxsie and the banshees, they're all "naah, that stuff is weird" It really pisses me off. Same goes fro punk, all these emo kids are callin themselves punk, and most of them can't even survive in a moshpit. When they listen to the sex pistols, they get confused :(
@twilightsol Emo started asa n iffshoot of hardcore punk. wheras hardcore punk usalyy delt with polital themes, emo delyt with personal isses such as love and breakups ect . a few of the first emo bands were , sunny day real estate and rites of spring. nowadays emo has become more like pop punk.
@JacobDeadman So basically it started as one thing then got commercialized. Sounds like the stuff my daughter listens to. Thats ok she's 10. Thanks for the explanantion.
I listen to everything, prefer progressive metal bands like Nevermore and Fates Warning but I still love Bauhaus and the Cure, no need to wedge yourself into a specific genre, that's just herd mentality.
@artificialmetal to be honest,im 16, i love music,its my life,i enjoy listening to classic music till the most extreme kinds of metal.my favourite music is gothic and dark wave...but u made a mistake : today's "music" isn't music :)
@artificialmetal Yeah..it's really sad that music "died" along with the 80's...or maybe it was just barerly alive at the 90's, but after that...it just ..died! :(
i used to think this song was about evil passages in a book of shadows, but then, upon reading the lyrics, i think its about a gay prostitute junkie trying to get a fix.
manson will never be close to comparison to bauhaus and company.
every time i look at manson and listen to his music...it just smacks of one thing: he is trying too hard to be 'different'. his 'art' is nothing new and just repackaged copied material from true artists like bauhaus. all manson does is pput a showier glitz to it...which is about impressive as a $10 tiajuana whore!
btw, I haven't read trough all comments to follow the discussion, but Manson?! he's a joke and was created by the marketing department of the label... he just happend to be the right person for the roll to play just like Madonna is for popmusic, at least imo
What?! The most recent pictures I have seen they do not look like Phil Collins at all! I mean the last I saw of Daniel Ash he was wearing biker clothes and had a shaved head! So how is that Phil Collins? I can assure you also David J is NO Phil Collins either! I really hope you are joking!
Raeding the post on here and I agree that kids today just have no clue what good music is. I mean I had some little young goth guy come up to me and say "What's so great about Bauhaus?" I wanted to slap him! I have been listening to this band since I was 14 and I am 38 now. I missed out on seeing them in their hay day by two or three years. ( I was 12 in 1983) They changed my life. I will love this band until I die.
Bauhaus are the BEST fucking band of the PAST THREE CENTURIES!!! ( "centuries" my friends NOT fucking "decades"!!!....) And WE ALL KNOW that Peter Murphy is GOD!!!.... Danny knew what he was doing when he formed Bauhaus.... Their music BIRTHED an entire NEW GENRE and the fact that their "frontman" was one of the most fucking MAGNIFICENT/ BEAUTIFUL creatures you've EVER seen didn't "HURT" the band either!!!.... What an EXPLOSIVE COMBINATION!!!! Bar none!!!
The thing about this guy was he was wearing a Mason t shirt and I asked him why he thought that was goth. He had no real answer for me or at least one that made any sense! I told him Manson is nothing more than a more extreme rip off of Alice Cooper told him to run along and watch some and get back to me.
i totally agree with you..manson is definately not goth but this doesnt mean his music is not nice (thats my opinion of course)his shows are (or rather used to be) very interesting. but still even though i like masnon very much i cant help but get highly irritade when i see that a lot of goths around my age listen only to masnon and slipknot and dont even know from where this goth thing they're into started from...
I don't have anything against Manson really just when younger people try to tell me that he is the real Goth I have to laugh. I am glad you can appreciate Bauhaus it's a rare thing these days.
I couldn't agree more, I wish the Goth's today would take a more respectful tone with this band and not dimiss them so easily or think they are irrelevant. I try to remind them without this band yours may not have existed. They were the first and in my opinion the best.
I am just curious gothicdeadbride, how old are you? I was heavily in the Goth scene for about 11 years but was listening to this band long before that. I was wondering if like most you have a favorite member? I have to say I am the odd one I am a long time David J fan but love all the members for what they brought to this band.
im 17, im in the scence for 3 years...i know.. im still young
i have to say that i cant pick one...they all created something briliant :) + they all had the looks ;)
its really hard for me to decide..usually my favourite member changes over periods , currently i have a thing for petter merphy but if you ask me next month i might say daniel ash.
That is young but it warms my heart that you like and respect this band since as I have said before most don't. I do love all the members but David J has just always been my fave. I would probably seem old to you I am 38 but I still love the scene even if it's not what it used to be probably wasn't even when I was into it!
well i dont know how the scence is abroad but here in greece the 90% is posers and when you try to start a conversation with them they'll tell you how much the like death wich is what pisses me of and is excactly why i dont hang out at goth bars/clubs
As a rule I love Manson and his work, but it's eye opening to hear this. I'm no expert by any stretch of the imagination but the guitar work here bears some resemblance to Manson's recent "We're From America."
I have nothing against Manson but to say he is goth is a big stretch. If you are a Manson fan then you are aware of his influences and none were goth at all. He may possibly like that music now but if you watch any old Alice Cooper or Kiss ( both he was influenced by) you will see where part of his stage act comes from. Certainly not from the Goth scene I assure you.
I didn't mean to suggest that he was Goth. His influences being Alice Cooper, David Bowie, Kiss, etc. But I was just pointing out what I saw as a similarity. That could simply mean that Twiggy and Chris Vrenna were influenced by Bauhaus.
I agree with you that Manson is not goth and that he has more in common with people like Alice Cooper and Kiss than with any goth bands. I grew up listening to bands like Bauhaus and Siouxsie. Those bands were arty. Their music was dark, yet very poetic and Romantic. They didn't even refer to themselves as "goth," but came to be known as seminal goth bands. I just don't see Manson having anything in common with them. Unfortunately, the term "goth" has been seriously misused lately.
I grew up listening to the same music as you and yes they weren't considered "Goth" that's what they became. When I started listening to Bauhaus and others I was 14/15 years ( 1985) old I had no clue what Goth was or had even heard of it. I didn't until years later. I had heard of dark wave and that's what I thought they were. I agree it has been missused since Manson came on the scene. You can't compare the two bands at all they are at different levels entirely.
Right, the comparisons are simply unwarranted. I got into bands like Bauhaus, Siouxsie, and Killing Joke in the mid-80s also. The term "goth" wasn't in common use then, but that was really the height of goth. Also, the fans weren't necessarily all goth. I knew totally geeky kids who weren't goth at all, but liked some of those bands for their intelligent, literate lyrics. I don't think Manson shares the artistic sensibilities of those bands at all. He is more shock rock than anything else.
agree with what you said...esp the term 'goth' wasnt in common use or at all when describing music like bauhaus' and dressing in a lot of black.
'goth' for me, back then, was a mindset of ironic poetry in ones life of introspection. there is darkness in everyone's life and 'goths' explored and expanded it.
emo is about as far from goth as possible. emo lacks intelligence. lacks originality. lacks substance. and most of all: lacks dignity.
Once again I couldn't agree with you more, I wish more people understood that. Emo and Goth are not the same thing at all but try telling that to the younger set pathetic and sad really.
I'm actually part of the "younger set" allthough I'm 19 now. I find it annoying that people have no idea anymore what goth actually is. Kids walk up at me, thinking I'm another of those Slipknot/Cradle of Filth fans, talking about eternal darkness and how deep and thougthfull they really are. My taste and style is unknown to almost anyone and thats socially not a good thing.
Once again it warms my heart that there are some younger ones out there that love this band and understand. You all are few and far between. I hope you continue to enjoy this amazing band!
Actually what I find annoying is that when you do talk to someone about music and you bring up Bauhaus automatically they think you are a Peter Murphy fan. I actually am not! Nothing against Peter he is amazing in his own right, he is just not my cup of tea. My channel pretty much can tell you who's my favorite and has been since 1985.
Luckily, that never happened to me. Though I havent met much people that actually know about the band. I'm not a Peter Murphy fan, just like I'm not an Ian Curtis fan or Robert Smith fan. They're musical icons, but I dont see icons as examples. They're more like inspiration. Plus, it wouldnt be very healthy to see Ian Curtis as an example.
Ofcourse, everyone has its favorites. Being a bassist, I like Peter Hook but thats about as far as I'll go before I start dumping an entire list of names.:P
I understand entirely what you mean. They really should be insperational not really examples and yes I i agree Ian Curtis is not a good one either. LOL But then you will find alot of artist that aren't. You can dump names if you like on my channel I would be interested in your influences. My husband is a bass Player too that's why I am interested.
i know, thats how it is in my school also, i am the only goth, im serious no punk rockers or goths, our school so bland and colorless, its all lady gaga and riannha, i hate it.
Right. Back then, people didn't use the label "goth." The fans didn't call themselves goth, and the bands certainly didn't call themselves goth. Also, back in those days, what later came to be known as goth had more to do with music, a certain aesthetic sensibility, and like you said, a certain mindset. Now, goth is more of a "lifestyle" and seems to have more to do with body piercings than anything else.
Well as I said I was 14 years old when I started listening to those bands and living where I did ( a very small town in the middle of no where) I am still amazed I could find the music I did! Goth for me did surface until about 1989. I thought it was funny that a lot of the bands I listened to were considered that! I agree Manson is shock rock and I also hate when he covers songs that don't need to be redone and does it badly. I think he tries too hard to be different.
Same here. I was about the same age when I got into those bands. That's impressive that you were able to discover all that great music while living in a small town. Right, it wasn't until the late '80s that the term goth was more widely used. Then starting in the '90s, the term became very misused. There's something wrong when Evanescence and the Columbine shooters are referred to as "goth."
@avocate201 Funny story here I'm 18 years BTW. Well I was bored one day so I started to troll on videos that mallgoths listen so I went on a Evanescence video and saw all these gay comments like "Gothic 4 EVA" "Amy Lee is a Gothic queen" Then I bstarted fucking with by saying fuck this shit fuck this fake symphonic Metal wannabe goth shit Amy Lee ain't got shit on Candia Ridley. Then i told then to listen to Inkubus Sukkubus. You know want happened after that? I get 5 death threats in my inbox.
@avocate201 There is something very wrong, and theres something even worse with the high school i just got out of: the only three people at my high school who knew of Bauhaus were me, the security guard and the vice principal (which we talked alot about music, more then my peers). This one girl claimed she was goth yet she wore a "fall out boy" jacket and loved concidered evanescence goth.
not at all - I only bought 'dark entries' 'cos the reviewer in sounds said it sounded like joy division - which it didn't... and neither did BL's dead...
moral of the story: never trust a critic... those that can't; teach - those that can't teach; criticise....
Lacrimosa-Tilo Wolff y Devil Doll-Mister Doctor,son los mas grandes grupos-cantantes goticos.Con voces e influencias diferentes,ellos han llevado a su maxima expresion lo que Bauhaus iniciara en 1978.

The cure and jesus and mary chain? Don't get me wrong, I like those bands a lot, but I never consider them as "goth" or deathrock, but punk rock, sure.

@tdoesntmatter: Agreed. I grew up listening to bands like Siouxsie, Bauhaus, and Killing Joke, and I don't even consider people like Manson and NIN to be "goth." It's strange and annoying how the term "goth" has become so misused since the '90s. The term "goth" wasn't even in common use back in the '80s. Bands like Bauhaus and Siouxsie certainly didn't refer to themselves as "goth." Now, the word is used to describe pretty much anyone wearing black.

@avocate201
Yes! You are absolutely correct. I remember the term goth in the 80's, but it was not a household "term". Mainly we were just called New Wave, post modern or death rock at times. I wore all the black and had the stick up fucked up hair. In the 80's we were true freaks. It's just so mainstream, ridiculous and well ugly these days. I don't dress like that anymore, but I still have a little black heart!
tdoesntmatter 1 year ago
@tdoesntmatter Yes, I know exactly what you mean. The word "goth" was definitely not a household term back in those days, and people who were actually goth did not self-identify as "goth." Yes, we were freaks back then, but in an artsy way. Now, "goth" is strangely more mainstream yet associated with violent, self-destructive, and over-the-top behavior. The bands that are considered "goth" now simply don't have the artistic, literary sensibilities of the bands that we grew up listening to.

Yeah, I'm agreeing with everyone down there. In highschool, all the goths are the "Marilyn manson" and "slipknot" kids sayin "LOL I'M SO GOTH!! I AM BADASS!!! " I try to get them to listen to this, along with the cure, siouxsie and the banshees, they're all "naah, that stuff is weird" It really pisses me off. Same goes fro punk, all these emo kids are callin themselves punk, and most of them can't even survive in a moshpit. When they listen to the sex pistols, they get confused :(

manson will never be close to comparison to bauhaus and company.
every time i look at manson and listen to his music...it just smacks of one thing: he is trying too hard to be 'different'. his 'art' is nothing new and just repackaged copied material from true artists like bauhaus. all manson does is pput a showier glitz to it...which is about impressive as a $10 tiajuana whore!

but obviously everybody grows up after all, look at the guys today, can't really tell them apart from Phil Collins ;-))

What?! The most recent pictures I have seen they do not look like Phil Collins at all! I mean the last I saw of Daniel Ash he was wearing biker clothes and had a shaved head! So how is that Phil Collins? I can assure you also David J is NO Phil Collins either! I really hope you are joking!

I wanted to slap him! I have been listening to this band since I was 14 and I am 38 now. I missed out on seeing them in their hay day by two or three years. ( I was 12 in 1983) They changed my life. I will love this band until I die.

The thing about this guy was he was wearing a Mason t shirt and I asked him why he thought that was goth. He had no real answer for me or at least one that made any sense! I told him Manson is nothing more than a more extreme rip off of Alice Cooper told him to run along and watch some and get back to me.
djhfan38 2 years ago 3
i totally agree with you..manson is definately not goth but this doesnt mean his music is not nice (thats my opinion of course)his shows are (or rather used to be) very interesting. but still even though i like masnon very much i cant help but get highly irritade when i see that a lot of goths around my age listen only to masnon and slipknot and dont even know from where this goth thing they're into started from...

I am just curious gothicdeadbride, how old are you? I was heavily in the Goth scene for about 11 years but was listening to this band long before that. I was wondering if like most you have a favorite member? I have to say I am the odd one I am a long time David J fan but love all the members for what they brought to this band.
djhfan38 2 years ago
im 17, im in the scence for 3 years...i know.. im still young
i have to say that i cant pick one...they all created something briliant :) + they all had the looks ;)
its really hard for me to decide..usually my favourite member changes over periods , currently i have a thing for petter merphy but if you ask me next month i might say daniel ash.
gothicdeadbride 2 years ago
That is young but it warms my heart that you like and respect this band since as I have said before most don't. I do love all the members but David J has just always been my fave. I would probably seem old to you I am 38 but I still love the scene even if it's not what it used to be probably wasn't even when I was into it!
djhfan38 2 years ago
well, you are never to old to be a goth ;)
well i dont know how the scence is abroad but here in greece the 90% is posers and when you try to start a conversation with them they'll tell you how much the like death wich is what pisses me of and is excactly why i dont hang out at goth bars/clubs
gothicdeadbride 2 years ago
As a rule I love Manson and his work, but it's eye opening to hear this. I'm no expert by any stretch of the imagination but the guitar work here bears some resemblance to Manson's recent "We're From America."
This could be my lone opinion, but its there.

vadarfone 2 years ago
I have nothing against Manson but to say he is goth is a big stretch. If you are a Manson fan then you are aware of his influences and none were goth at all. He may possibly like that music now but if you watch any old Alice Cooper or Kiss ( both he was influenced by) you will see where part of his stage act comes from. Certainly not from the Goth scene I assure you.
djhfan38 2 years ago
I didn't mean to suggest that he was Goth. His influences being Alice Cooper, David Bowie, Kiss, etc. But I was just pointing out what I saw as a similarity. That could simply mean that Twiggy and Chris Vrenna were influenced by Bauhaus.
VictorMWolf 2 years ago
I mean no disrespect, I agree that both Twiggy and Chris could of been there are some things I have heard that suggest that.
djhfan38 2 years ago
I agree with you that Manson is not goth and that he has more in common with people like Alice Cooper and Kiss than with any goth bands. I grew up listening to bands like Bauhaus and Siouxsie. Those bands were arty. Their music was dark, yet very poetic and Romantic. They didn't even refer to themselves as "goth," but came to be known as seminal goth bands. I just don't see Manson having anything in common with them. Unfortunately, the term "goth" has been seriously misused lately.
avocate201 2 years ago 6
I grew up listening to the same music as you and yes they weren't considered "Goth" that's what they became. When I started listening to Bauhaus and others I was 14/15 years ( 1985) old I had no clue what Goth was or had even heard of it. I didn't until years later. I had heard of dark wave and that's what I thought they were. I agree it has been missused since Manson came on the scene. You can't compare the two bands at all they are at different levels entirely.
djhfan38 2 years ago
Right, the comparisons are simply unwarranted. I got into bands like Bauhaus, Siouxsie, and Killing Joke in the mid-80s also. The term "goth" wasn't in common use then, but that was really the height of goth. Also, the fans weren't necessarily all goth. I knew totally geeky kids who weren't goth at all, but liked some of those bands for their intelligent, literate lyrics. I don't think Manson shares the artistic sensibilities of those bands at all. He is more shock rock than anything else.
avocate201 2 years ago 4
agree with what you said...esp the term 'goth' wasnt in common use or at all when describing music like bauhaus' and dressing in a lot of black.
'goth' for me, back then, was a mindset of ironic poetry in ones life of introspection. there is darkness in everyone's life and 'goths' explored and expanded it.
emo is about as far from goth as possible. emo lacks intelligence. lacks originality. lacks substance. and most of all: lacks dignity.
rest in peace

Once again I couldn't agree with you more, I wish more people understood that. Emo and Goth are not the same thing at all but try telling that to the younger set pathetic and sad really.
djhfan38 2 years ago 5
I'm actually part of the "younger set" allthough I'm 19 now. I find it annoying that people have no idea anymore what goth actually is. Kids walk up at me, thinking I'm another of those Slipknot/Cradle of Filth fans, talking about eternal darkness and how deep and thougthfull they really are. My taste and style is unknown to almost anyone and thats socially not a good thing.
It really is a shame.

Actually what I find annoying is that when you do talk to someone about music and you bring up Bauhaus automatically they think you are a Peter Murphy fan. I actually am not! Nothing against Peter he is amazing in his own right, he is just not my cup of tea. My channel pretty much can tell you who's my favorite and has been since 1985.
djhfan38 2 years ago
Luckily, that never happened to me. Though I havent met much people that actually know about the band. I'm not a Peter Murphy fan, just like I'm not an Ian Curtis fan or Robert Smith fan. They're musical icons, but I dont see icons as examples. They're more like inspiration. Plus, it wouldnt be very healthy to see Ian Curtis as an example.
Ofcourse, everyone has its favorites. Being a bassist, I like Peter Hook but thats about as far as I'll go before I start dumping an entire list of names.:P
HawK047 2 years ago
I understand entirely what you mean. They really should be insperational not really examples and yes I i agree Ian Curtis is not a good one either.

My husband is a bass Player too that's why I am interested.

Its very hard to find goths based on their clothes these days. Theres always the metalheads and punks that dress all black thinking they're goth.
In my opinion, punk is pretty much dead. I dont understand why bands like Green Day are called punk. It sounds nothing like the original punk.
If you'd see punks in your school, they'd be just more of those "good charlotte" kids. Same goes for "goths"; the angsty metalheads.
Grab a few friends and show them your music. Best way to make goth friends.
HawK047 2 years ago 5
Right. Back then, people didn't use the label "goth." The fans didn't call themselves goth, and the bands certainly didn't call themselves goth. Also, back in those days, what later came to be known as goth had more to do with music, a certain aesthetic sensibility, and like you said, a certain mindset. Now, goth is more of a "lifestyle" and seems to have more to do with body piercings than anything else.
avocate201 2 years ago 2
Which is why I think all that really resembles goth is the music, so there is no lifestyle.
Its just like the regular metalhead. He couldnt be a metalhead if he didnt listen to metal.
HawK047 2 years ago
Well as I said I was 14 years old when I started listening to those bands and living where I did ( a very small town in the middle of no where) I am still amazed I could find the music I did! Goth for me did surface until about 1989. I thought it was funny that a lot of the bands I listened to were considered that! I agree Manson is shock rock and I also hate when he covers songs that don't need to be redone and does it badly. I think he tries too hard to be different.
djhfan38 2 years ago
Same here. I was about the same age when I got into those bands. That's impressive that you were able to discover all that great music while living in a small town. Right, it wasn't until the late '80s that the term goth was more widely used. Then starting in the '90s, the term became very misused. There's something wrong when Evanescence and the Columbine shooters are referred to as "goth."
