Ms Dahl Also don't pretend to like bands you really don't. It's okay, really. I've met Goths who detest Bauhaus. And, they're just as Goth as the next person in the subculture.
That's nice to know, because in truth, I HATE The Cure, Bauhaus, Rasputina, and Sioxsie. It would always seem like experienced Goths ADORE those bands and I always wondered what it would be like if I told them I couldn't care less about them. Depeche Mode is good though- in my opinion.
Also, out of all those bands you listed as...Dark Cabaret, I think, can I get a list of the ones that use mostly (or only) piano? Like the ones EXTREMELY similar to Dresden Dolls. I love them smile

Infection XIII Teachidoll Um...I have a question do you have to like goth music to be goth?(ducks behind table)just asking Well, it's a subculture based almost completely on goth music. You connect the dots.
There are so many aspects to the goth subculture, that is a very close minded thing to say, my friend. Yes, music is a big part of it, but I know plenty of non-goths who like more "goth" music than me and my other black clad friends do: the music does not make the goth, nor does it destroy it. Let's see, there is also art, fashion, literature, media, and so forth. I would suggest listening and trying out atleast a few "goth" songs and bands, maybe for techno Razed in Black? Or try listening to Lullaby and Just Like Heaven by the Cure? Maybe Marian by Sisters of Mercy? But plenty of goths love non-goth music. I recently just saw Heart in concert myself, for example, and I adore bands like Demon Hunter, Savior Machine (although S.M. is a gothic christian band from the 90s), Joy Electric is really good, and performers like Alice Cooper.

The culture wouldn't exist at all if it wasn't for the music. Anything else is extraneous. The music most certainly IS what makes one goth.

Damn you for saying what I was going to say before I had a chance to log on.
And damn me for being preoccupied with MUA2. ninja

Isn't it intresting just how much everything revolves around music, even how you may define yourself as a person. Mhmmmm By the way I like Demon hunter...

No one said you couldn't like non-goth music. Most goths I've met are fans of David Bowie, Joy Division, and Einsturzende Neubauten; none of which are goth bands. Hell, you can listen to the most bubblegum poppiest s**t out there and still be a goth.
What we're saying is, yes, liking goth music is considered a requirement because music is what the goth subculture is ALL about.
It's not about attitude, it's not about "art", it's not about shitty poetry, it's not about literature(though there are many references in goth music), it's not about Tim Burton movies, etc.; It's about GOTH music.

Well now, if it does not work vice-versa, I would have to say that is only half way true. Art is not the canvas on which it started by itself.

It's not about attitude, it's not about "art", it's not about shitty poetry, it's not about literature(though there are many references in goth music), it's not about Tim Burton movies, etc.; It's about GOTH music. You are very limiting in the term of "art", as anything and everything can be art... and as for poetry, from my understanding, most goths have long grown out of that since due to the emo burst of a few years back and being confused with such. Also, then... what is your definition of "goth" music? Most the bands we consider goth actually claimed not to be, however that is where some, if not alot, of our base is. Some people do not consider more visual Japanese bands, like Blood or Malice Mizer, to be goth. I personally consider them to be very much so. Goth vaires alot, from some techno groups, to metal, to just about everything (save for country, rap, and such... -shudders at the thought- but if someone wanted to, they very well could... I suppose....). As for Tim Burton, doesn't everyone love him? It's odd to find someone, anyone, who does not... not a good point some people make in defining things. However, thank you for pointing out someone does not have to be a cookie-cut conformist in order to be a goth.
