Bumping because I tried to make a similar thread yesterday got zero responses. Goth is way underrated, I wish I had a more extensive knowledge of the genre.
What are your favorite goth albums?

i want a black goth girlfriend, how do i get one

Best song on Pornography.

Pornography for sure. Any of the early 80's albums from Siouxie. Everyone should check out this chris or video on goth it's great.

Looks like you accidentally forgot to add nosferatu in god tier

best goth album

*Chris Ott video

Changed my life man, though Disintegration was where The Cure really came into their own.

The other three good albums are The Birthday Party's Junkyard, Bauhaus' In The Flat Field, and Christian Death's Only Theater of Pain.

NEON is worth checking

The Birthday Party is my favorite band, are there any other bands out there with a similar sound you'd recommend? I've already listened to the earlier Seeds.

Swans recommended listening order?

Start at Filth, listen to the discography up through Public Castration, then stop.

If you want to check out the more goth-y sounding Swans, listen to the Children of God album.

You get this stuff from a cereal box, OP?

>mid tier
>type o negative
Child, I will hunt you down and make you feast on the aglomerated putrid skin of a thousand decayed parrots. Type O are the GOAT gothic metal band. Their orchestration and tones are fantastic.

>gothic metal
>goth

The Great Annihilator, Children of God and White Light are the best starting places, unless you dig industrial and no-wave, in that case you should go chronologically.

I mean the self described expert listed it here didnt they?

OP lumped Skinny Puppy into goth, that goes to show how much people know about goth here.

>bauhaus not god tier
baka

>not siamese twins

yea ok buddy

>>God Tier
>Swans

See, now I can't take the rest of the list seriously.

>Skinny Puppy
>these guys look like goths so surely they are
they had one or two songs that club goths love but other than that their music sure as shit ain't goth. might as well lump Einsturzende Neubauten in there based on their looks.

>that Siouxsie flat chest

wow. is this how she got away wearing lingerie in shows?

Chris Ott fucking loves goth. Pretty sure he said Bela Legosi Is Dead was the first album he ever bought.

I wish hair like that would make a comeback already

have you heard his newest podcast about the Cure? it's cool to listen to someone with such an encyclopedic knowledge base talk about one of my favorite bands. it's a little TOO much information at points, but he contextualizes things in a way you don't get by just reading bios and rock histories.

No I haven't, but I'll definitely check it out. I really wish he'd start making videos again.

Do I have a shit taste for liking Deathstars?

Are you contributing to it by having hair like that though?

>bauhaus not god tier
what kind of meme is this?

Sometimes there are /dark/ threads.

>Bela Legosi Is Dead was the first album he ever bought.

Had to doublecheck but that's a single.

holy shit i was about to make this exact same post. down to the baka

Should just be a /dark/ thread, Skinny Puppy and Zola Jesus are not goth.
