can I get some recc's on what to listen to? Ive never really listened to much /dark/

I'm curious why Killing Joke's legend hasn't lived on as much as bands like Bauhaus and Sisters of Mercy considering how fucking great they were

How about post rock with a goth vocalist?youtu.be/zEJtSATqlNs

I could show you some nice neofolk or some nice horrorpunk. Which do you want?

horrorpunk

How does one procure a low-key goth gf?
Not one of those corny over-the-top Tumblr/Hot Topic goth bitches, but one of those girls who look normal for the most part but still give off vaguely goth vibes? I always wanted one of those.

REC ME ETHEREAL WAVE GEEKS

Their ep from last year, Necrosphere, is really good. Preferred it over the full-length.

Lonesome Wyatt's collabs with Rachel Brookes are also top tier.


Anybody else hyped for the new record from Soror Dolorosa? Supposed to come out this year.

Okay :^)
I must admit, I'm not up-to-date when it comes to this but I loved it and dug deep into it as a teenager. Similarly to neofolk it's defined more by lyrical content than purely musicological criteria (although mimicking horror soundtrack type music, clear vocals and LOTS of "woah woah woaaah" are typical) so there's a lot of different styles within the genre, the most clearly defined subgenre being psychobilly which mixes horrorpunk with rockabilly and is characterized by its fast-paced acoustic bass-slapping.

Obviously you should know the Misfits, both their original line-up with Glenn Danzig on vocals and their 90s reincarnation with Michale Graves on vocals:
youtube.com/watch?v=IFxwq7tgPiY
youtube.com/watch?v=Gp-EiITf1YI

and here are some other groups I remember fondly, but remember that corniness is a big part of the charme and should be enjoyed unashamedly:

I also recommend the "This is Horror Punk!" compilations. Good shit, many cool underground bands.

I'll give that a listen. I hated that one concept album about that preacher dude they did and the one after so I abandoned them. Is it closer in style to that, a return to their old style or have they developed in a new direction?

What's some good dark cabaret other than the Dresden Doll's first album?
youtube.com/watch?v=Ksz-2fo2L4w

Also, do you people like Rummelsnuff?
youtube.com/watch?v=GapioR7kUUI

holy fucking shit dude

now do neofolk

First off, with neofolk you have to know that there are multiple "lineages", two of which date back to Death In June and Current 93. The Death In June lineage is more martial, politically revolutionary and more concerned with "apoliteia" (what exactly that is is for you to find out) and the writings of the Konservative Revolution and "fascist" occultism while the Current 93 lineage is less serious and more folksy aesthetically and concerned with all kinds of esoteric traditions. Here are two classic albums you should know, but really the discographies of both bands are mandatory, huge and rewarding:
youtube.com/watch?v=TVD8iww-cfs
youtube.com/watch?v=wsDsTxsh9V0

I am most familiar with Death In June's lineage of martial apocalyptic and apoliteic folk (which does not mean that they or any of the musicians in this field are necessarily nazis, fascists or right-wingers). Given the thematic element that is crucial to this kind of music while the only real musical criterion is reference to European musical traditions of forgotten times, many different styles of music can be encountered here although repetitive acoustic guitar strumming, martial rythms, snare or tribal drums and flutes/trumpets/synths, monotonous male vocals and wind chimes are typical. Here we go:
youtube.com/watch?v=A0FXliKdbac

youtube.com/watch?v=Vpw8dnEp9u4
youtube.com/watch?v=InE-xcB59EE

youtube.com/watch?v=PzbHvqN5RSw
youtube.com/watch?v=L0nYLDjskXo
youtube.com/watch?v=otKSw-iCefE

German neofolk is kind of its own lineage though tied to the DI6 one. It originated in Forseti so here's another classic:
youtube.com/watch?v=Th4v_KHNTME

Huge ass microgenre, this is hardly a glimpse.

What do you guys think of Ghost?

Is W.A.S.P. /dark/?

youtube.com/watch?v=JjMBjRG1oSg

Fuck Ghost. Shitty pop doom. Not even all that fun or catchy.

>vaguely goth
>low-key goth
you just want "le depressed qt azn gf ;_;", don't you? It's just another breed of tumblrgoth (female sadboys specifically).

Get some taste and seek floofy trad goth girls.

death is cute

here's some nice deathrock for you (maybe a bit less punk)

youtube.com/watch?v=XvnOtwu-kok

where do you even FIND them
canada seems completely devoid
i havent seen a single person who vaguely looks like this

Can someone post a chart? I know there was a darkwave one with like The Cure - Pornography and other stuff.

apparently there's some in spic countries, and I encountered one or two in the French art school I went to a few years back.

>finnish traditional deathrock
EBIN :DDDDDDDDD

thanks, this is pretty good
have another death

>tfw you will never be as glamorous as Zin François Angélique

who /madame edwarda/ here?

They were a letdown really after I gave them a try.

SCOOBY-DOO
CHASE
MUSIC

I've heard spookier music on halloween albums for children.

I recommend Duchess Says

guys there's this modern post punk heavily joy division band that i've lost track of,

low voice skinny dude to guitarists very blue tinged music video for a song that shifts about halfway through to a triumphant searing guitar leads type vibe

Bump.

What are your favourite modern goth/dark/whatever wave bands?
There is some amazing stuff in the scene like She Past Away, Soft Kill, Winter Severity Index, Be Forest

holy shit, so neofolk is redpilled?

What exactly is goth music?

She Past Away is great
I really like Maria Loves Me and The Frozen Autumn


how fucking underage do you have to be to not know this?
also
>redpilled
poltards confirmed for oblivious toddlers

Neofolk was always the most redpilled genre

except Rome, that's cuck shit. Non is best.

>>>/reddit/

Music with a goth aesthetic

it's spooky new wave

>>>/trumplr/

i never really understood the goth aesthetic

it's pretty much just the new romantic aesthetic but black and white (and with the occasional skull)

what are some really cool coldwave bands out there that you never hear getting mentioned anywhere?

One of the best deathrock band in the US right now.

youtube.com/watch?v=NZ9S72QlasM

anyone else heard the new teleplasmiste album? good synth drone from some guys who worked on a bunch of the later coil albums

There's some Kenneth Anger still which looks just like this.

Been listening to some jap stuff recently and found this band again.

bretty good neofolk

88888888th cover of that track.

Got any good download links for this? Digging it.

Not bad, the bassline is pretty weak though.

Nah, the YouTube uploaders probably have some though.

Cemetery is my shit. Shame they're like kinda not a band anymore.

I'm glad to see something like this consolidated, will continue to lurk.

May as well contribute while I'm here. Anyone familiar with Dan Swano's early Nightingale work? He eventually abandoned the goth rock aspects but the first album is like Sisters Of Mercy-goes-prog-rock and it's always been one of my favorite gothier albums

youtube.com/watch?v=SoStR1qpNl4

Found this on /metal/, it's pretty great imo youtube.com/watch?v=5HrGEZTF6dQ

>tfw listened to all of their discographies already

why is there so little deathrock
its so different and unexplored
theres so much you can do with the sound

See next post for a couple more

already heard hairspray queen too
im liking way out though, so thanks for the rec

Where have you been? 2010's Absolute Dissent was an amazing album after Paul Raven's death. Not to mention MMXII and Pylon. Solid releases. Band still touring. Fans worldwide. All is well. They just released a documentary too.

Wilful Days
youtu.be/vl8m8PzmdbA

one of the best neofolk albums coming through

Soror Dolorosa, Lebanon Hanover, The KVB, Tropic of Cancer, and probably one of the best, Drab Majesty.

Dark rock and electronic music dealing with serious or introspective lyrics, flanged guitars, tribal drumming, prominent bass leads, and baritone voices. Basically spooky or gloomy music derived from Post-Punk.

That's what a pleb would say. Rome is just as apoliteic and as much of a querfront approach as Death In June, Darkwood or Art Abscon except even more well read and on another level entirely in terms of craftsmanship. Boyd Rice (NON) is just a funny idiot satanist glam nazi.

>Implying Boyd doesn't dress like a nazi to alienate stupid people

It's good. All of Rome's dicography is worth listening to (except for Hell Money) and their best imo is probably The Hyperion Machine. So much more mature aesthetically, no production tricks mask anything, beautiful craftsmanship and actually deals with contemporary political topics for once. Die Æsthetik der Herrschaftsfreiheit is also great.

While we're at it, here's an often overlooked highlight of Death In June's dicography: Black Whole Of Love; a (7",10", 12", CD) collection featuring four versions each of the songs Leopard flowers and Luther's Army, two versions of God's Golden Sperm and three other re-recordings of their Clouds/Symbols era. Beautiful release and all versions are absolutely dreamy.

I rec Rowland S Howard.
>Post-punk, wailing guitar, unrefined vocals

youtube.com/watch?v=qv_6ZlXP7Gk&list=PLphrIV29xxqtDN1gRaP94fmBz95wx-evw

It's also interesting to see how many degrees of separation he has from a lot of surprising artists. David Eugene Edwards from Sixteen Horsepower has taken his spot in Crime and the City Solution recently, for example. Between he and Mick Harvey every goth album from 1980 on has been STRAYA'D.

He does but that doesn't mean that he is not also an actual nazi and a fucking idiot. Compared to the other people in this scene I mean. You don't find Boyd dropping any subtle literary references to Evola, Mohler or Proudhon, he just writes very enjoyable but banal social darwinist poetry.

I'm more compelled to believe he isn't a Nazi or a Fascist and rather a misanthrope that likes socially conservative approaches to dealing with the ills of the world.

Fellow goth fags of Sup Forums, we really need this shit more often.

> The Hyperion Machine
I didn't get that album at all. I feel pleb-tier

There's no need to get everything at once. Just relisten once the older Rome records aren't enough anymore.

>when you forget to attach a cover image or youtube links
Fuck it, here's a mega upload
mega.nz/#!mhI3WJRB!4Rrr3EyrfK-vEgwjFhXp7-6SXxAv7DWNjHsyfLQnGbw

Best dark ambient you will ever hear.

>posts shitty barely legible image
I like you, I like you so much I hope you dtick around for eternity.

don't put those kinds of curses on people, that's not nice

To be fair this is Sup Forums, we're here forever anyway.

kind of exciting, isn't it? maybe we will engage in conversation again in 50+ years and won't even know

Assuming this place isn't gone.

I hope so much it will be. I don't want to be here anymore.
