Final Thoughts

Content: LOL. The reality is very different so let’s clear up some misinformation about what it means to be goth and explore the rich variety in this dark, mysterious, and wonderful subculture. What is goth exactly? Back in the 70’s and 80’s when the rock and punk musical genres were exploding and rapidly evolving, a new term was coined to describe the emergence of a variation of that music along with the new fashions styles accompanying it. Bands like Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Cure, Joy Division, and others were some of the early pioneers who popularized the gothic style. Essentially, the goth subculture was born from this emerging music scene and the corresponding fashion styles of these bands inspired fans around the world to embrace and continue to develop the look and ultimately, the culture. Now several decades later, the goth subculture has evolved to include many different styles, beliefs, and disciplines making it one of the most popular subcultures in the world with large followings in Japan, Germany, and the United States. Goth subculture is often characterized by wearing all-black apparel, strong elements of magic or witchcraft, angry or depressed attitudes and emotions, and evil intent or involvement. While there may be traces of these elements within certain segments of gothic subculture, many of these misconceptions couldn’t be further from the truth. The reality is goth subculture is a vast and diverse collection of different fashion styles, preferences, musical tastes, outlooks on life, belief systems, and more that are always evolving.
