hehe, a young'un told me recently that they like to be called 'Emos' these days, but I wouldn't know as we don't get much news in my Old Goths Home. I'm happy in my senility believing its still the winter of '88.dinky daisy wrote:And the young goths show up @ Centre Pompidou?deadagain wrote:Perhaps Leeds Museum should commission an oral history on the Leeds music scene in the 80s, before all the old goths die!
Is this the place I used to know as Fatherland?

NO! WRONG!
Emo is not goth. It's s**t.
Worrying how few goths I grew up around, they turned into emos. Who, yes, do look quite tasty, but have no musical taste whatsoever.
In conclusion: emo != young goth

Goth and Emo are further apart than Pluto from the sun
Whilst there aren't many young Goths around we are still here!

Are there really any young 'goths' at all these days?
The only alternatives seem to be either emos or metal-goths, both of which are totally 'off-the-peg' (ie there's no thought or effort in it any more, you can go buy 'the look' in one shop in less than 10 minutes), and IMHO is rather corporate and hence utterly crap, *sigh*, unlike back in the '80s of course
(yeah, okay... I admit it, I'm just jealous of 'em and their bright long futures *pah*)
