Gothic posers misconstrue the bands music as being Gothic Rock because Amy Lee herself is a Victorian Goth. Amy Lee may be a Victorian Goth but a person's sub-culture does not determine their musical styling. Saying that a band is Gothic because the lead singer is Gothic is like saying a group is Rap because the member is black. It does not work that way. Anyway, Evanescence's styling in general is not Gothic, but instead is actually Hard Rock and Alternative. Also, unless if the definition changed just recently, there is no way she is in the Nu-Metal genre either. First of all, she is not Metal in any way what-so-ever and second, people need to learn what Nu-Metal really is. Nu-Metal is actually a currently dying-out (thank god because it sucks) FUSION genre of music that consists of not only the Rock element, but also consists of Rap/Hip-Hop elements and the last time I checked, Evanescence did not have Rap elements in them. Amy Lee does not rap her lyrics nor did any of her members. And the last time I checked, they did not have instruments commonly used int the Hip-Hop genre so that argument is dead wrong. Listen to Evanescence's music first then compare it to actual Nu-Metal groups like Lincoln Park, Slipknot, Limp Biscuit, Hollywood Undead, Korn, Disturbed, etc. and then you will see the difference. Learn your genres first and do your research before you put labels on a group.

Why did goth start?

'goth' is originally what the Germans were called when they sacked Rome...music:The years in which the goth movement originated (79-83) were extremely interesting and diverse musically. As well as the punk splinter groups (the Oi! and Anarcho movements), there was the Ska revival, the Mod revival, the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the fledgling Industrial sound, the so-called "Futurist" movement, New Romantic, Psychobilly and a bewildering array of "post-punk" bands. Out of this peculiar mixture, the early goth bands gradually emerged. Of course, at first they weren't termed "goth" bands, though some of them were referred to as "gothic" in musical style as early as 1979.

Is there a style that has Celtic and goth?

Eh, there are some folk bands with goth influences, but no goth bands that heavily incorporate Celtic styles. If you're looking for an Irish goth band, try The Virgin Prunes. There are however some medieval bands, folk bands, and coldwave bands that incorporate a slight goth influence, but I can't name any that have Celtic style off the top of my head. Try looking up Opera Multi Steele, traditional French styles fused with Synthesizers and ambient.
