Goth Rock/ Death Rock/ Horror Punk/ Darkwave
All great genres that relate to each other. The problem is people don't understand them and tend to add bands that relate only by image and not by sound. Most genres are created based on an evolution of a certian genre of music and create a new subgenre. Goth Rock, Death Rock and Horror Punk all come from the Post Punk scene and relate with each other. Death Rock is similar to Horror Punk, especially vocals but sometimes differ. Horror Punk tend to stick with more Punk influence, while Death Rock kind of devoted to be something different. Goth Rock really went into a few directions. Some of it has more of a rock sound and not so deviant as Punk can be. Vocally they are different too. A few bands can be related to both Punk and Goth depending on the era and album they produced.
Here are some great bands from these genres. 45 Grave (Horror Punk/ Death Rock) Siouxsie and the Banshees (Goth Rock/ Punk Rock) The Cruxshadows (Darkwave) Bella Morte (Darkwave/ Death Rock) The Damned (Goth Rock/ Punk Rock) Sisters of Mercy (Goth Rock) Bauhaus (Goth Rock) Joy Division (Post Punk and controversially called Goth Rock) Christian Death (Death Rock) I have more bands but these are just some of my personal favorites. Any questions about the genre or bands you believe to be goth and like to know, just ask. :) |
Could you perhaps post some more?
And do you know how Industrial and Goth would be realated, if they are? *is merely curious* |
Ooh.
I must say, you have lovely taste in music. :3 |

What people misunderstand about Industrial music is that it is very noisy and electronic sounding (duh lol) but not dancable like EBM is. EBM has more of an association with Goth, do to the combination called Darkwave... But that is a debated genre in itself. Well there are a few more bands. Here is a list that I like from my VF profile. 45 Grave Faith and the Muse The Sisters of Mercy Southern Death Cult Death Cult The Cult Bella Morte The Cruxshadows Siouxie and the Banshees Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds The Damned The Virgin Prunes Red Lorry, Yellow Lorry London After Midnight Christian Death Rozz Williams Premature Ejaculations Fields of the Nephilim Sex Gang Children Cinema Strange Alien Sex Fiend Bauhaus The Creatures Danse Society Flesh for Lulu The Legendary Pink Dots The Mission (UK) Nosferatu Peter Murphy Shadow Project Specimen UK Decay Black Tape for a Blue Girl Miranda's Sex Garden Dead Can Dance Rasputina Joy Division The Cramps X Ray Spex The New York Dolls The Dresden Dolls And also not to mention a few EBM, Industrial and Electronic based bands. VNV Nation Ministry Revolting Cocks Front 242 Pig KMFDM Android Lust Apoptygma Berzerk CombiChrist Electric Hellfire Club Velvet Acid Christ X Marks the Pedwalk :wumpscut: Depche Mode Gary Numan The Birthday Massacre |
Thank you very much.
^^ I hadn't quite learned that yet, as I've only recently even discovered these wonderful genres. The artist listing will definetly be helpful though. I think Industrial being danceable to could be debated however, but that's merely my opinion. A friend of mine loves The Dresden Dolls and got to go to a concert of theirs. I'll have to see if I can get him listening to some of the others as well. Again, thank you very much for posting this! <3 |
No problem. Always glad to help. :)

Wonderful. There are actually other people here with the same music taste as me.
Just made this forum http://www.menewsha.com/viewtopic.php?t=24699 |

What would Moonspell and Velvet Acid Christ be considered?
