Hell, I'm not a goth and don't look the part, either. However, I still listen to the stuff from my past as well as the current realgoth and DR bands. It's not about music snobbery, either. There are just some of us here who just happen to be aware of and listen to the music.
Seems in this day and age that those who don't identify themselves as such tend to be more about the music; folks who could care less about the music, however, only seem to latch onto the cliches and misconceptions that have been associated with goth.
I could care less about your number of prospective sex partners or how many quizzes/polls you post. What do you think of Blank Dogs' sound? Aren't Darling's Cabinet Of Sundry Horror a lot of fun to listen to? Does Nora Keyes sound like Edith Piaf's twisted offspring? Will you be ordering the Drop Dead Festival DVD?
Curious as to why goth and punk are the easiest scenes to screw with.
