There are many to choose from and it depends on the time frame you are looking for. There are many now, but some of the founding bands of the gothic music genre are Bauhaus, Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Cure, The Sisters of Mercy, Virgin Prunes, Sex Gang Children, Christian Death, and Alien Sex Fiend. Newer goth bands really branch into further subgenres.

What decade did gothic genre become a trend?

Gothic Rock came about as part of the post-punk movement in the 1970s. It was the main influence on what would later become known as Industrial. Gothic Metal is a term which first came about when Paradise Lost released their album Gothic in the early 1990s. Now, most so-called "Gothic Metal" bands are neither gothic nor Metal. Gothmetal.net, for example, has a tendency to list any band with a female singer as such, which is a bit absurd.

What are the social customs of the goth?

What does gothic mean in regards to the group of people? Here's where it gets confusing. There are things that many Goths like that are not gothic (Industrial or Classical music). There are things that are gothic that many Goths dislike (vampires, interest in death). There are things that some people think are gothic that are not gothic (bands like Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails), and there are things that do not call themselves gothic even if they are considered gothic by most people (bands like Sisters of Mercy and Dead Can Dance). However, there's no Grand Gothic Judge to decree what is truly Goth and what is not, although there are plenty of people who claim to be it. It's an ambiguous label with many people using it that don't understand what it means. The people who do understand it often have many different definitions.
