wasn't she from evanesence? In which case NOT GOTH!!
if it's not 1980's It doesn't count. Putting a bit of pointy eyeliner on bloody awful commercial rock does not make it goth.

The one and only Pete Murphy - Bauhaus.Posted 1 year ago # -
Ah but Bauhaus hated the label of 'goth' did they not? So on that note were they Goths? (I don't recall them invading Thuringia anyway
)

'ow do, nice to see my fanclub still here
Julianne Regan / All About Eve were never 'goth'. Just because they were friends with The Mission, they got labelled goth, but listen to their stuff & it's nearer folk than it ever was goth
And as for Siouxsie Sioux - punk punk punk
Good to see McCoy & Eldritch up there though
I always liked Elizabeth Fraser's voice, but I wouldn't call the Cocteau Twins goth either. There was a lot of good (IMHO) underground music around in the mid-late 80s, some of which jumped on the gothic look bandwagon (including The Damned!), some of which sounded right but didn't quite look the part, and then there were those that looked AND sounded right but refused to have anything to do with 'goth'. Step forward FOTN.
And Bauhaus split before the term 'goth' was ever used in anger

wouldn't call Tarja goth....

nor Dave. Although he does have a mighty fine voice
The Damned were a pub rock band that caught on the first wave of punk (after all, New Rose was the first punk single ever released). As their sound morphed into something more psychedelic with the release of The Black Album, their image morphed with it. A more "gothic" album cover I doubt you could find; DV always did the 'Dracula' look but none of the other members of the band did. Sensible would often be seen on stage wearing a tutu...
But I'd still call them a 'punk' band rather than 'goth'

i'd agree with ya - i was more talking about Dave's look from the beginning.

I'd agree with that. Sometimes sensible appeared on stage with no trousers, we did enjoy throwing bottles at him though.
Spot the airplane:
This was a little Gothic, well the imagery was.

No idea if she can sing but still...Vikki Blows
(you may want to delete your history after you google her...)

Does she?

true, Phantasmagoria had a great cover. Shame about the contents. Sanctum Sanctorum was ace, in the same vein as much of The Black Album, but the rest was, well, "pop music"

Someone once gave me a Sisters of Mercy tape so I suppose I had a near Goth experience.

If a girl wearing black eyeliner and black clothes gives you head at a JM Jearre's performace, is he then a goth?

If he is wearing black
guyeyeliner, he is definately a goth. Regardless of what gig he's at.Posted 1 year ago # -
No, sorry for being imprecise, is JM Jearre then a goth?

Hmmm,that's if you thought New Rose was a punk single,it never did it for me at the time, but then in later years I began to appreciate it a lot more.Plus if the rumours were true the whole first album of the Damned was originally recorded a lot slower & then speeded up to jump on the punk band wagon.I always thought they were far too polished to be a proppa punk outfit.They even sounded good live FFS !
Saw them many times in their hay day & they were always VFM,even got to see Sensible's Hampton the once

Aah the Damned, first ever proper gig I went to, Roman Jugg filling Sensibles shoes in 86, a great gig.

well I didn't think New Rose was punk but that's what it's quoted as

Singing and goth don't easily sit in the same sentence. One of the best unintentional moments of recent history was when The Doors invited Ian Astbury to join them.....begged the question,had they ever heard any Cult/Southern Death Cult records?
Posted 1 year ago # -
yeah, I did wonder about that...
anyway. Why's there a picture of me in a vocalist thread? Have any of you nice folks ever heard me sing?
this is me in action (many years ago):
and now:
not so gothic now, eh?Posted 1 year ago # -
