Hi Fediverse! I'm 46, and am just starting out on my goth journey(you're never too old to start a new thing-don't let anyone convince you otherwise). Looking for some recommendations for goth bands to listen to, and figured here was a great place to ask! Please comment your faves below. Thanks in advance

@BowieSpace You don't mention what you're already familiar with, but it doesn't hurt to start with the classics. So, if you haven't already, try Sisters of Mercy. There's a superb "best of" called "A Slight Case Of Overbombing". "This Corrosion" and "Lucretia, My Reflection" are stone cold classics.

@BowieSpace Welcome to the dark side – we have cookies.

I like old EBM like pre-2000 Skinny Puppy or Die Form. But also the New Wave / Dark Wave classics like Pink turns Blue etc.

Obviously there's all the classics, but for something new you could try Raven Numan (daughter of Gary)

@BowieSpace @viennawriter I like EBM and electro-industrial too, and skinny puppy is one of my favorite bands, though i wouldn’t consider those genres goth

zauberlaus@chaos.social

@BowieSpace everything batcave starting with bauhaus

heyebodo@rollenspiel.social

@BowieSpace I’d like to suggest two #Mixcloud livestreaming shows from Northern Germany: the weekly show #gothdiscoinferno by @bauhausmensch and #DunkleEchos by @thorsten
Both shows have created nice digital campfire-communities and I (re)discovered awesome bands through both shows. Micha always provides great context information about featured bands during the livestreams. A good place to discover #goth #postpunk #coldwave etc. bands.

@enby_of_the_apocalypse @BowieSpace Well, back in the mid 1990 when I started going out to goth clubs it's what they played there. And back then there was no "I'm gother than you" attitude, which came later in the early 2000s with more genre splitting and more we against them instead of having fun evenings together. So I consider them goth anyway, because I'm not playing along in the splitting game.

thorsten@social.rabenheist.de

@BowieSpace The Silence Industry, Grundeis, Rue Oberkampf, Vioflesh, there are sooo many!

robinmarx@wandering.shop

@BowieSpace Other folks have recommended a lot of the classics, but if you want to hear the current stuff I recommend the Communion After Dark podcast.

@BowieSpace Halloooooo! Goth is a very broad church (but I am not going to bore you with subgenres right now). What music have you liked so far?
