I used to be a goth, totally into the life/deathstyle, listening to the most obscure bands and totally convinced I was unique, cool and not bothered about anyone's opinion of it. I grew up. Below is what I have against current Goths and all, but I might be wrong. I am wondering if anyone can change or strengthen my opinion? And if you think I'm an uncool repressive stuck-up oldie, try 'n go past that for for a bit.
(1) "Alternative" music nowadays is all fake, marketing and rip-offs. Since grunge, no real music style appeared on the guitar scene and the kids now are simple copycats. So are the bands. Listen to music from the 80s and 90s, compare it.
(2) Ripped jeans, trenchcoats and Dr Martens are all passé. It used to be a statement against the order, the normal. Now they're fashionista accessories. It's not just unoriginal, it's bloody conservative.
(3) Lastly, why are Goths almost always so 'open-minded' about gay/lesbian experiences.. Like you're uncool to be straight?
