@BowieSpace I started out in the mid-80's so listened to a lot of the classics like Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, Joy Division, The Cure. Those are some cool places to start!

@BowieSpace I'll try to put together some recommendations for you, and after reading through the suggestions by others, you're already in good hands. Goth music is so … comfortable.

bowiespace@mastodon.social

@WTL I appreciate you! Thank you so much🥹I'm excited about this journey!

@BowieSpace saw Christian Death live at Whitby Goth weekend and they were amazing! Well worth it if there's any shows near you.

@BowieSpace I saw a lot of great recommendations, but didn't see Switchblade Symphony. Late 80's early 90's goth rock. Tina Root is pretty awesome.

@BowieSpace there is so much to explore!

Bauhaus, Siouxie and the Banshees, Sisters of Mercy, Christian Death, Clan of Xymox, some of the Cure albums are goth-ish like Disintegration. Fields of the Nephilim, Dead Can Dance.

@BowieSpace I discovered goth music late in life too; I missed it entirely in the 1980s, and discovered it in the 2000s. If you're an Apple Music user, I frequently will play this list: https://music.apple.com/ca/playlist/goth-essentials/pl.0f96a26bd3404897bc4e9c6273a8aae8

@WTL ahh, it's so good to meet someone else who discovered it later on! Thank you for sharing with me! I don't use Apple unfortunately, but I appreciate the gesture🥰

@BowieSpace welcome (to the dark side)!
Here it goes, my Bandcamp following list https://bandcamp.com/seyon/following/artists_and_labels

wtl@mastodon.social

@BowieSpace You *should* be able to see the songs on that list and look them up wherever you do listen to tunes.

@BowieSpace
I'll hold off on posting a long list of band names, because, as you may already have seen from some of the replies here, a lot of very different musical subgenres can be called 'Goth', or played out at Goth clubs or on Goth playlists, streams, etc.

In some groups of Goth people (for example, at a club night or with DJs after a live event) some of the 'Goth' music that gets played will be loved by some of the people and hated by the others. And vice versa, 5 minutes later.

Some of the weekly clubs go to the effort of posting their past playlists online:
http://www.deathguild.com/playlist/

That club is in San Francisco, but the music played at it comes from all over the world, and across time.

Garbage was as far as I went into Goth (which I'm sure people will say is not goth). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpBFOJ3R0M4
