I think it’s really funny how goth is the most visibly distinct and recognizable alt subculture but most people (even other alt people) have no idea what the music is or what it sounds like

Defo emo genre. I was a vampire freaks kid so I was into birthday massacre and Kerli but even some ppl will say those bands aren’t goth either. I defo think whatever your generation is, the definition of goth will be diff from other’s. My brother is a gen x and he was into Marilyn Manson so I think whatever your age is will determine what you think goth music is.
