Goth article in today's Guardian

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Was an eye-opener for me, namechecking Leeds' venues and the genesis of the Sisters - the description of a goth being someone who paints their lips purple and runs off to Whitby made me laugh...
What are we gonna do now then?

I'd end this moment to be with you
Through morphic oceans I'd lay here with you
