I wish whatever people call "goth" today had a different name, because "goth" to me is people like this-
Now it's people like this-
I think both looks are fine, but it's weird to me how substantially different goths today look from goths of my youth compared to, for example modern punks, who still basically look like punks have always looked.
To me, goths are the people who sacked Rome in 410. None of this makes sense to me.
Listening to The Smiths is good for your health.
Ha, i am somewhat familiar with the genre, i just wanted to contribute :) studied ancient rome, so that is legit what i typically think of when i hear goth.
It's amazing the results you can get by taking a picture on color film.
The color has nothing to do with it. You really can't see a complete difference in look?
But if you want color-
The clothing is actually quite similar, I think the big difference is the hair is smaller these days. Which kind of tracks- most hair today is smaller than 80s hair.
Still fake goths. Not one of them looks like they could sack Rome
Don't underestimate Robert Smith. He's only in love on Fridays. He spends the rest of the week training for combat.
On the one hand, I was going for the cheap joke.
