Siuxsie, Bauhaus and Joy Division are not 'underground'. You're not underground when a single song of your band has been so hideously overplayed that everybody goes 'oh their singer hung himself
' whenever it is played AGAIN in an internet cafe or something.
The glamour punk (because that's what 'goth' is) thing is long dead and all that remains is a 'scene' of people refusing to let go because they
like the clothes too much. So grow the fuck up and stop trying to belong in any subcultural group. I listen to Bauhaus, Joy Division and the Banshees and I don't have to identify with the gothic scene, fake or otherwise. To hang around with other idiots so in need of an identity that they're willing to fashion one out of fishnet and eyeliner is not a prequisite for appreciating the music, you know.
