Aye. It's how we distinguish from the children who think Goth is Korgs and Moogs and far too much PVC for a middle-aged gentleman.

No problem!
I like synthesizers, don't get me wrong - but it's a different kettle of piscines compared to the Doktor and distorted guitars, you dig?

Yes, I must say, I don't like the "trad" prefix... even though it is used to describe a lot of the music I like. To me, goth (or more accurately post-punk) should be the antithesis of "trad" anything. It should make you go "what the hell is that?" when you first hear it. If you can do it by numbers, you're doing it wrong!moses wrote:Traditional - popular, customary, regular, conformist, fixed, boring, uninterestingdarkparticle wrote:and what's trad goth?

so the trad goths are just a bunch of bands with nothing in common what so ever.
but all the bands that get the mustard with them are labeled Gothic.
so Gothic = rip off ?
