Hi! I just joined due to the enshittification of bluesky and hope to find new community here. I'm a goth trans woman interested in art, music and fashion.
i wrongly posted my introduction in the hexbear community so i'm just making a new one here when the original is deleted
favorite goth albums?
hard to say, these might all not be pure goth but:
siouxsie and the banshees - hyæna
dead can dance - s/t
killing joke - s/t
the cure - pornography
cocteau twins - treasure
are definitely on my shortlist
Nice. I prefer the more industrial side of dark music, but I do enjoy some goth myself.
Check this one out: Escape with Romeo - Autumn on Venus
i'm making a note of it!
i lean more towards black, death and doom metal even though my fashion and aesthetic is definitely way more goth than metalhead. goth fashion is just so more high femme aesthetics
at least you listen to some of the music...
As someone who's in the dark alternative scene, it's disappointing that while the aesthetics are very popular nowadays - the music isn't.
for sure, i think the music is more important than the fashion. dark and alternate describes 90% of what i listen to even though it doesn't necessarily belong to the goth scene. if i had to give up either my wardrobe or my record collection I'd say bye bye clothes in an instant
