Another British Punk era group that I think were particularly influential on what became Goth, and that don't get cited often in connection to it, were The Stranglers. That group had some songs that were pretty creepy and dark, like No More Heros, Strange Little Girl, The Raven, Golden Brown, All Roads Lead To Rome, and Everyone Loves Ya When Your Dead,

girlllll we need (I NEED) more videos from you, you are literally new here but I LOVE your videos, finally a gothtuber that actually talks about music lol love youuu xx bb

I agree with you that Bauhaus was the start of goth music. Peter Murphy is the grandfather of Goth. In the 80’s “goth” wasn’t a word. So us kids listened to anything “alternative” which was for me (depending on where you lived) (I’m from the south US) violent femmes, the clash, Echo and the Bunnymen, the Cure, the Cult, Susie Sue, Joy Divion, etc. Music is an individual required taste. There is so much out there.

Definitely! The terms “Post Punk” and “Goth” were retroactively applied to these groups of music later on. I think “Punk” and “New Wave” were the only labels I mentioned that were actually used at the time.

@@CadaverKelly I was there in England during the Punk /New Wave (of rock music) period . Futurism was a word that started to be applied in the late 70's eg John Foxx /Ultravox /Gloria Mundi. Then the New Romantics appeared who were an offshoot of Futurism . Goth was another offshoot of late 70's New Wave and started with Pete Murphy and Bauhaus. ps note in England New Wave has a different meaning to what people use it in the US. In England Joy Division, Simple Minds, Magazine and the Only Ones were New Wave. In the US bands like Culture Club and the Thompson Twins are seen as New Wave. To me these were simply new pop bands .

@Steve H I was also "there " at the time . Myself and my friends used the term "New Wave" to describe bands who were more musically sophisticated and technically proficient than Punk bands eg Magazine, Simple Minds, Joy Division etc. I did not hear the expression "post punk" until 20 years later. As you say it was never used to describe a genre but a period in time . Now it is used as a genre in itself and is not historically accurate and is unnecessary. Punk and New Wave are enough . Goth was an offshoot of New Wave. For another thing Punk has never gone away so how can there be post Punk ? It is an Oxymoron.

Thank you! I've been slowly getting into goth music, on a song by song case. I know I centrate around a few types of goth music but I'm just not sure about the subcategories yet (Especially because I'll really like a song/artist in a specific genre, then find another artist from the same genre and not be so fond). I've also slowly had more of the punky stuff growing on me- it's something I like listening to but would never seek out, but that's starting to change :> It's a breath of fresh air to see goths discuss the genres, as well as recommend songs within those.

Just start with Bauhaus and work your way outward from there. Bauhaus didn't think of themselves as goth. That didn't exist at the time. They were just a post-punk band with a dark sound. It was BECAUSE of Bela Lugosi's Dead appearing in the opening scene Tony Scott's 1983 "The Hunger" that they became the definers of the sound that we now call gothic rock.

Postpunk and Gothic has been strongly influenced by Psychadelic Rock. This Genre you should have mentioned. (Velvet Underground, David Bowie) And of course the German Band "Kraftwerk", without them there wouldn't be any Wave.

This is fascinating, not only because it's educational and gives specific examples, but because I am starting to see now why I KINDA gravitate towards bits of goth culture without quite being a goth actually--I'm into the _related_ branches of music. Like New Wave and the "very goth adjacent" bands from the early '80s you mentioned. Where synths and poppy tunes mix with darker or spookier themes, that's where I come in. :)

I just stumbled onto your videos and like them I grew up into punk rock in the 80s and there wasn't a lot of weirdos back then so we united no mater what music you listened to but since we all hung out welistened rock all types of stuff punk Ska death rock new wave so it's kinda cool to hear you talk about bands I haven't heard in years so thanks for the video's

Thanks. Nice to see some bands get mentioned that can easily be overlooked these days. Notions of "what is goth," "what is punk," and "what is post punk" were not particularity segregated back then. There were subtle differences in sound and style, but they didn't translate into different "cultures" back then. Christian Death played with the Angelic Upstarts. 45 Grave played with Black Flag or the Circle Jerks. I'd run into the same people at shows as diverse as Fear, the Germs, the Gun Club, the Cramps, Johanna Went, Nervous Gender, the Flesh Eaters, Savage Republic, or the Fall. What eventually became considered "goth" certainly grew from the rather dark, moody, somewhat cynical and dystopian tendencies of post punk music that evolved after the initial period of punk rebelliousness faded with the realization that punks could not remake the world as they saw fit.

This was a really great video! I just discovered your channel and I'm super happy to see more stuff talking about the history of goth music. I totally get what you mean by keeping it simple for newcomers with the main 3 genres (and I agree those are the most important!), but I think coldwave should've gotten a brief mention. Even though it's technically the French/Belgian version of post-punk, it was very different from the UK's version as it focused on minimalism and embraced electronics early on -- but it was as equally as important for sculpting what would be defined as goth music in the late-80s and beyond. Many of today's new goth bands (Lebanon Hanover, Forever Grey, Hapax, Second Still, etc.) likely wouldn't be making the stuff they do without what the 80s coldwave bands laid down before them. But maybe that would've been a bit too much to slip into a basic introductory video! Regardless, I think you did a really great job.

You need more subs

there's also coldwave, a minimalist synth subgenre of gothic rock originally coming from france with bands such as little nemo, lost desert, and second still, and ethereal wave which has shoegazey/classical elements and stemmed from the 4ad record label with bands like cocteau twins, this mortal coil, and mors syphilitica

When I think of new wave I think Duran Duran, The Police, Depeche Mode, Katrina and the Waves, Thomas Dolby, etc. -- I would never have thought of Information Society since I see them more as (pop) electronica. This is a great video though -- I might put it in a playlist along with a few other as good explanation of what goth music is.

Thumbs up for mentioning Two Witches (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Witches) - my personal favorite of goth bands ever ...probably because I have been lucky enough to get some stray sprinkles of goth fair...witch dust on me when attending same university courses with Nauku back in the day ;)

Back in the day, before Goth was actually called "Goth," quite a few Deathrockers I knew (I was in the American scene) tried to act like they really didn't approve of The Sisters of Mercy for inclusion into the "Deathrock canon" of the times, preferring primarily guitar-driven bands like Christian Death, 45 Grave, and The Birthday Party (bands that were more punk rock-adjacent, as you point out). But, the actual truth was that, at the end of every single gig and late night after-party that I went to back then, "Floodland" could be heard playing on HEAVY rotation. (I'm still a fan of TSOM to this day). Great overview, btw.

Your videos are truly lovely, Kelly and I can feel the passion you have for music... I just need to point out a couple of things in this video which were a bit grating to my ears! Because you are so precise using the terms proto, post, adjacent, etcetera... The Stooges and the New York Dolls are definitely proto-punk and not strictly punk. They shouldn't really be grouped with The Sex Pistols or other post-76 band. Also, the term New Wave used to describe a more commercial evolution of post-punk elements is something I heard from Americans a lot, but in Europe/UK we don't discriminate post-punk and New Wave in the same way. The Cure, Bauhaus and Joy Division have always been called New Wave , since the very beginning.

Try Yugoslav new wave and dark vawe, it had a very great scene. Some bands: Ekaterina Velika, Morbidi i Mnoci, Dobri Isak, Padot na Vizantija, Phantasmagoria and many more. A great channel for such a music is Dronemf.

Outside of the Batcave crowd most people in that scene just called the music Indy or Alternative. The way I understood it, it was basically the Punk's who didn't sign up to the Punk "year zero" thing and still loved Bowie, Roxy, Velvets, Doors and this reflects in the music, not to mention many on the Alternative scene were too young to have been Punk's and this was their thing. I saw the Sisters and the Cult, Banshees back then, Siouxie Sioux was truly a force of nature!

Intro song in the beginning?

Actually there is quite a bit of interesting "Proto Goth", predating Bauhaus, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Joy Division etc... You will find some of it in early Alice Cooper (his first album "Pretties For You" has a goth touch to it). Same with Nico (some dark stuff ... heroine will do that to you). "The End" by "The Doors" also carries a bit of that sound (although not genuine goth). The infrastructure was definitely being built about 10 years prior to what would actually be considered "Goth" but not just from the developing punk scene of the 70s

Interesting summary. Reading an interview with Greg Mackintosh this afternoon he describes the problems Paradise Lost ran into with their record company at the time when they tried to release an album with 3 songs that were clearly 'goth music', including a Sisters of Mercy cover. I can see the record company's POV - they've paid for a death/doom album and been handed something else. Like it or not, the industry is absolutely 'hung up' on genres.

I focused more on goth music also punk music since 2005. I was 14 and in high school as a freshman.

Shame the pictures put up of "sisters of mercy" was NOT the line up of " First and last and always " but the post split line up The MISSION UK followed and is still amazing live ,
