Gothic rock, also known as goth or gothic music, is a genre of alternative or underground music that emerged from post-punk bands such as The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Bauhaus, Joy Division, and Sisters of Mercy. Gothic rock typically features slow to mid-tempo melodies with haunting guitar riffs and atmospheric keyboards. Lyrics often focus on themes such as death, love, despair, religion, and the supernatural. The style is characterized by its dark aesthetics, including black clothing, heavy makeup, and gothic symbols such as crucifixes and skulls. Gothic rock has influenced various subgenres of alternative music, from post-punk to industrial and deathrock. The genre has also inspired fashion trends, literature, film, and other forms of art that embrace the darker aspects of human nature. Today, goth continues to thrive as a vibrant underground culture with dedicated fans around the world who appreciate its unique blend of music and aesthetics.
