Bela Lugosi's Dead is the only good gothic rock song.
prove me wrong.
inb4 Joy Division. I don't consider them gothic.
>>63214840
This is the most rage worthy b8 I've ever seen on /mu/.
>>63214840
>I don't consider them gothic.
who cares what you think?
>>63214840
What about The Cure? They have tons of great songs
>who is Nick Cave
>>63214840
It's only the best if it's the only goth rock song you've heard, like 90% of /mu/.
BURNING CROSSES ON A NIGGER'S LAWN
>>63214840
Bauhaus have lots of other good songs
>>63214840
That's not Fascination Street.
>>63214890
I don't like them tho.
Op here. This is more of a " how do I get into gothic rock?" thread more than a diss.
I enjoyed some of bauhaus' other stuff but in general it just bores me to tears.
I'm looking for something Joy Division-esque but with more occult, horror lyricism.
>>63214961
That's not All Cats Are Grey.
>>63214926
BURNIN DOLLARS WHATS A HOUSE WITHOUT A HOME
>>63214990
More like All Cats Are Gay.
>>63214982
>more occult, horror lyricism.
try fields of the nephilim
Actually it's Some Kind of Stranger by Sisters of Mercy
>>63214982
maybe you should have said "how do I get into gothic rock?" in your OP instead of "Bela Lugosi's Dead is the only good gothic rock song." Also how do you dislike The Cure? Every album they made up to and including Wish is excellent, although not everything is particularly goth
>>63214982
Some stuff /mu/ likes could be considered goth and /mu/ doesn't even realize it. I mean take Swans, for example.
>>63215058
Nah I don't think anybody denies that Swans went through a goth period, they just consider that period to be their worst
>>63215055
robert smith's voice is really whiny though as much as i love the cure so i can understand the dislike
>>63214982
fuck off you dope
>>63215055
I like a couple of songs by them. I even saw them live at a festival.
I just don't like Robert Smith's voice and the synths and stuff. idk they sound really cheesy. I could never fully into them.
>>63215084
Which period is that? At least half of their career has been that.
>>63215101
>being this mad
>>63215097
>whiny
l m a o fucking pleb, he's melodramatic to exaggerate the emotions conveyed in his music
>>63215159
gaaaaay

Siouxsie and the Banshees is greatly underrated.
The guitarwork in Juju is to die for.
Anyone else notice the drums on this are the first two seconds of Break On Through by The Doors played in a loop?
>>63215184
The Cure were definitely kind of gay, that sort of effeminate glam thing was a big in the 80's.
>>63215352
The Cure are extremely hetero.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJXRYqHy7Zo
>>63215422
The Cure are very far from the most masculine red blooded music.
>>63215295
>greatly underrated.
I don't know about that, they're usually one of the first bands mentioned in goth stuff.
>>63215489
>songs a man writes about love for a woman
>not masculine
>>63214982
I'm fond of the french band Corpus Delicti
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-U0hzbhsRzM
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uA7cDMI1KRo
Part of me wishes they stayed goth.
>>63215971
Disjecta Membra are another good goth band
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsSU0NsbUno
also Nosferatu when Nial Murphy was the singer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-Xlk_HaM8s
Also Lacrimosa, from Switzerland, who some people think is a metal band for some reason
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msQToxBKoq8
Siouxsie and the Banshees are good
The Cure are good
Bauhaus's other stuff is good
>>63214982
>he listens to music for the lyrics
this board is 18+ you know
Jesus Christ /mu/, if you're going to have a goth thread do it right.

op is truly a faggot.
early cocteau twins is goth, right?

>>63214840
Best Song, perhaps...
Bauhaus tried so hard to be the Bowie of the 80's. Not to discount the goth connection, but there's tons of goth-core available out there:
Death In June
Sisters of Mercy
Swans (yes, those guys)
The Gun Club
Fields of the Nephilim
Siouxsie & The Banshees
The Cure (Pornography, anyway)
45 Grave
Christian Death
Clan of Xymox
My Dying Bride
Type O Negative
Black Sabbath (seriously)
/ maybe I'm wrong....
>>63217213
I prefer death rock to proper goth, desu.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=a1dn1XKMR3s
I know this is karen-core but it's some seriously good darkwave. Japgoth is cool.

Wow surprised these aren't here yet
Christian Death
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCqaXfFJD9c
Sisters of Mercy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVPx4zalkiM
Dan Barrett said Sisters of Mercy inspired him a lot if that means anything to you
How the fuck has this thread gone on so long without anyone mentioning The Birthday Party?
