maybe i can hook you up with someone. but what are the exact specifications. for example do you need a slow, mid or fast song, how long do you want it to be and should there be “wallowing in my own misery” or the more pretentious “attempt at romantic poetry” kind of lyrics

marilyn manson looks odd between those other names. and don’t let the name goth ‘rock’ fool you, most goth avoids heavy distortion and uses a clear singing voice. if you want to know what (original)goth sounds like listen to the albums “a kiss in the dreamhouse” by siouxsie and the banshees, “first and last and always” by the sisters of mercy and “faith” by the cure, these are the albums that defined the genre. the name comes from the band bauhaus with their hit single “bela lugosi’s dead” which was dubbed gothic rock by the critics because it was an ode to bela lugosi, the first actor to officially portray count dracula whom is a character of a gothic horror novel.
now you know a litle about goth… wanna learn more? just ask. i know everything there is to know
