Gothic Music CD swap

also, just to add..."goth" can include a large amount of 80's (the more dark, emotional, etc stuff....some main streamers are the Cure, Siouxie and the Banshies, The Smiths, etc), punk has a tendency to cross genras with goth...though that'd often be a taste thing, Industrial music almost always falls into the genra as well. Techno, Trance and the like have been known to make themselves known in the "goth" scenes...but as with 80's music....it's does not include everything...

I've actually found "goth" to be one of the most varied genras...including most types of music, and often being more of a feel/mood thing.

But still, if you're not familiar with it....do some research, it is very easy to find examples. :^)

ah, an ode to my youth...

the virgin prunes the young gods bel canto this mortal coil aurora malign das ich bauhaus love and rockets tones on tail xorcist the cranes christian death (it seriously doesn't get more goth than them kids) the sisters of mercy fields of the nephilim...

Also Ala

There is some metal that would be considered goth. It's too bad there is a "NO" metal music ban on this.

you say it's goth, but you can't include NIN or Manson?

Please NO Marylin Manson

NIN and Manson are a bit too mainstream...everyone's heard or heard of them. I'd say it's more so that there's a better chance of people experiencing new songs and artists...

NIN & Manson would be more industrial than goth...

That's not to say that I don't like industrial... because i do likes! :)

I'm sending this tomorrow after I get paid!
