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

      Thank you! Sage recommended it to me when i decided to leave bluesky due to the overwhelming influx of liberals, fascists and transphobes

    Greetings

    We hate enshittification here but tend to be pro-enshitpostification

    We love our trans comrades and we enjoy the freedom of speech to point out that slave owners should be shot

      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

          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

      i don't make music but i collect records and listen to everything from raw underground black metal (as long as it's not fascist) to the girliest pop music

        Oh if we actually had to make the music we post that comm would probably be way more boring hahaha, don't let that stop you

      some 2024 recommendations: cutting the throat of god by ulcerate from new zealand is my favorite death metal album of the year! songs of blood and mire by spectral wound is an amazing black metal record! dream talk by still corners is a beautiful dream pop album!
