Introduction Song Break: I’m More Goth than You Debate: Is the Cure a Goth Band Song Break: Goth GothQUIZition Song Break: Drunk, Stupid and Goth Elitists of the past Song Break: Gothic Yard Sale Note: We will be taking our yearly hiatus in January so there will be no episode. Patreon members will be invited to a video hangout via zoom that month. Redaction: A previous version of this episode mentioned rebuilding the goth scene 'post-pandemic'. This was in reference to music venues reopening with new health guidelines such as masking and mandating vaccines. However proper context was not provided and the statement could have been misconstrued. As there is a lot of COVID misinformation out there which downplays the serious, deadly nature of the virus that disproportionately impacts marginalized communities, this portion has been removed to avoid inadvertently condoning behavior that puts the health and wellbeing of our community at risk.

How can goth be consistently distinctive when it’s so musically diverse? If goth is all about the music, how does that transform a group of people into a community based subculture? How do social spaces give rise to meaningful cultural substance? Can industrial, gothic metal and more be considered goth music? We’ll look at these questions and more in our extensive discussion of the book ‘Goth Music: From Sound to Subculture’. We feature brand new music on All Goth Considered from Obscura Undead!
