Gothic music typically features a range of instruments that contribute to its dark and atmospheric sound.

Percussion instruments like drums and cymbals are also used to enhance the dramatic effect. Vocals, often characterized by haunting melodies, play a central role, with choirs sometimes adding to the ethereal quality of the music.

The music video you’re referring to is "The Bird and the Worm" by The Used. In the video, a young boy uses a slingshot to shoot at a red bird perched on a gothic-looking fence. The imagery complements the song's themes of longing and emotional turmoil. The visuals are striking and contribute to the overall dark aesthetic of the band’s style.

The East Goths were known as the Ostrogoths. They were a branch of the Gothic tribes that played a significant role in the history of Europe during the late Roman Empire and the early Middle Ages. The Ostrogoths established a kingdom in Italy under King Theodoric the Great in the late 5th and early 6th centuries. Their culture and influence contributed to the transition from the Roman world to the medieval period.

Yes, Type O Negative did a cover of Soundgarden's "Outshined." This cover appears on their 1996 album, "October Rust." Type O Negative's rendition maintains the original's heavy sound while infusing it with their distinctive gothic metal style. The cover showcases both their musical talent and their appreciation for the original song.

Yes, there are several TV documentaries that explore the gothic punk subculture. Notably, the BBC's "Goth: The Dark Age" delves into the origins and evolution of gothic culture, including its punk influences. Other documentaries, such as "Gothic: The Dark Side of the 80s," provide insights into the music, fashion, and lifestyle associated with the gothic punk scene. These documentaries often feature interviews with key figures and fans, offering a comprehensive look at the subculture's impact on music and society.

Gothic rock emerged in the late 1970s as a subgenre of post-punk music, characterized by dark, atmospheric sounds and introspective lyrics. Bands like Bauhaus and Siouxsie and the Banshees helped popularize the genre with their theatrical performances and distinctive aesthetics. The rise of the goth subculture in the 1980s, marked by fashion, literature, and art that embraced darkness and mystique, further propelled the popularity of gothic rock. Its influence continues to resonate in contemporary music and culture.

A cyber goth band typically blends elements of industrial, electronic, and gothic music, characterized by heavy use of synthesizers, distorted vocals, and atmospheric soundscapes. Their aesthetic often includes futuristic and dark visuals, incorporating cyberpunk and gothic fashion styles, such as neon colors, PVC, and elaborate makeup. Lyrically, they may explore themes of technology, dystopia, and existentialism, reflecting the subculture's fascination with the intersection of humanity and technology. Overall, it's the fusion of sound, style, and thematic content that defines a cyber goth band.

"Quin the Eskimo" was written by Bob Dylan. The song, also known as "Quinn the Eskimo (The Mighty Quinn)," was first recorded by Dylan in 1967 and later popularized by the band Manfred Mann in the same year. The song features whimsical lyrics and has become a classic in Dylan's discography.

Goths, as a subculture, often embrace themes of darkness and the macabre, but like anyone, they can have personal fears. Common fears might include societal rejection, misunderstanding, or being judged for their aesthetic choices. Additionally, some may have existential fears related to mortality or the unknown, which are often explored in gothic literature and art. Ultimately, fears can vary widely among individuals within the goth community.

Because some kids and teens are going through alot and the music sooths them and makes them feel like they dont have to conform to society. The fashion is basically the same thing. They just dont want to be like everyone else!

Showtunes, if you classify that as a genre. Though his scores do vary in style.

The four original members of Black Sabbath invented it from ingredients that had existed before. Tony Iommi = the sonic structure, riffs and power chords and the like. Geezer Butler = occult lyrics, sludgy bass. Ozzy Osbourne = ominous vocals. Bill Ward = heavy drums.

^ not true they did not create metal, heavy metal is a genre of rock music, with roots of acid rock and blues. Acid rock later became known as heavy metal so the father would be jimi Hendrix

He is not. He is punk/pop/rock. Though he does wear eyeliner (Some times) So do a lot of rock bands.

"Dress in a red ripped tee. Also wear skinny jeans. The slip on a drenchcoat. You also need to die your hair RED!!! Then you are a punk!!!!"

Wow. This is the only answer anyone came up with? I disagree.

Punk fashion has seen several evolutions and involves a myriad of common styles. Some 'punks' will even refer to it as a uniform, a definition of self and a means of identifying yourself as a follower of punk rock music and culture. To some, punk is an identity in itself and a community you can belong to like family, brethren, and brotherhood.

Of the common characteristics of punk fashion, the following are most common, but this list is tremendously limited and should not be accepted as definitive or finite.

-Skinny jeans.

-Band tees (sleeves removed, ripped, etc.).

-The use of spikes, studs, and safety pins.

-Chuck Taylors, Doc Martens, Demonias, Creepers, etc.

-Denim jackets (usually lavishly decorated with pins, spikes, studs, patches, etc.).

-Ass flags (large patches hung from the back of your pants).

-Studded belts.

-Bondage pants.

-Spike collars, cuffs, bracelets, etc.

-Ostentatious hair styles (liberty spikes, mohawks, etc.).

-Extreme piercings.

-Leather jackets.

-Chains, straps, etc.

Again, a very limited list, and not everyone adheres. Originality is a cornerstone of punk rock music and fashion. It's about rebellion, expression, and making a statement. Also, punk rock fashion is not be confused with 'scene', 'emo', or 'goth' fashion. In fact, most punks would see that comparison as a very deep insult.

EDIT: Of course these punks would find that as an insult. Most of them think you are too stupid to think otherwise. most people who are punks don't want to dress like other people they don't care what's popular they want to look like a rebel.punks don't have a uniform they just dress how they want. true punks don't dress like other people if they do they are called "posers"...IN LAYMAN TERMS..DRESS HOW YOU WANT NO OFFICAL OUTFIT also copy bad.. think yourself good...dys don't listen to other people..punks want to be as distant as possible from society outrage the public as much as possible.. these include crust punk and anchro punk...hope you get the point..^_^

There's no subgenres of goth, like many would have you believe, however certain bands within the goth genre have different tendencies (Killing Joke and Alien Sex Fiend lean Industrial, Fields of the Nephelim and Nosferatu lean hard rock, The Cure and Siouxsie and The Banshees lean pop).

Simply put, goth people listen to whatever they want, but primarily goth rock (see the bands mentioned above).

Listening to bands outside of the genre doesn't detract from your 'goth cred' so don't be embarrassed to admit you like something other than Bauhaus.

Also, just because a goth person is listening to it, doesn't make it goth.

Just because a goth kid is listening to Lady Gaga, doesn't make it goth now, does it?

For the most part, popular genres other than goth rock popular amongst the subculture are: Post-punk (The Smiths, Echo and the Bunnymen), New Wave (Duran Duran, Depeche Mode), Psychobilly (Demented Are Go, The Meteors), Deathrock (Christian Death, 45 Grave), and Punk (Sex Pistols, Crass).

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.

Whitby Gothic Weekend is a twice yearly event (April and October), and was founded in 1994 by Jo Hampshire. Initially, it was held once a year up until 1997, when it was then decided to hold it biannually. What started primarily as a weekend with a gothic theme, chosen probably for Whitby because of its Dracula connection, it has now snowballed into a huge a event. The whole town seems to be invaded by 'Goths', a friendly group of people, old and young alike, who like to dress in their gothic costumes and parade the streets or attend different events around Whitby. These include fairs, markets, even charity football matches! Many of the town's public houses have made the 'Goths' extremely welcome including The Elsinlore, The Little Angel and The Shambles. Whitby's nightclub, the Whitby Pavilion and the Metropole are also popular venues. There are a plethora of shops dedicated to the sale of both 'Gothic' and associated styles, selling clothing, jewellery, memorabilia, statues etc.

The Goth you are familar with, such as 17 and 18 year olds running round shopping malls in all black, white face etc.. aparantly London.

But there are deeper roots with Germanic tribes.... but that's a whole different story!!
