Your Life on Hǒld
About time, wasn't it, that I made extensive list of "goth appropriate" music. Here you will find bands old and new from all around the world. It's difficult to define what "goth music" is exactly, is it a certain sound, or it is music goths like? The eternal question/online debate. So I've included both, loads of bands with the classic bleak goth rock or darkwave sounds, plus others that goths are known to like or you're likely to hear played in clubs or performed at festivals.
There's a lot of musical crossover in the "black scene" but I've tried to keep this list fairly genre-specific, thus excluding a lot of deathrock, post-punk, gothic metal, electro, shock rock, dark ambient, and so forth. I hope this list serves as a good starting point if you're looking for new stuff to get into. There's always more out there so. Happy listening!
