where should i start getting into goth music, fashion, culture?

Back to Music

i've always really admired goth culture and ive always wanted to be goth but it seems so daunting

i really like the cure (i've listened to pornography, disintegration, and parts of seven seconds) and some other of the popular bands but ive always wanted to dive deeper into the subculture

if only love was a star<

Go to some goth events - look for things like "vampire night" or anything referencing the 80s on a normal non-Halloween day of the year. Talk to people there.

Most of us are actually very nice & will tell you where we got our clothes (or, more often, how we made them) & what bands we've been obsessing over.

Just listen to the music and fallow your heart with it. It will come naturally over time, you will fallow rabbit holes and discover and learn things in your way and eventually, if its you, you will present it in your fashion. 
Look up the bands and just start listening homie. 

ill give you 4 main starting points, and if you are really interested, look into their history too, and read about what clubs were important, watch video footage etc. 
Good luck on your journey. 

Xmal deutschland
Bauhaus 
souixsie and the banshees
Sisters of mercy 

thats just a starter package. you will be well on your way to figuring it all out yourself if you love it, just continue from there. a year from now youll be telling me band names i never heard of in my life :). 
Happy journey.
