Deep , dark and mysterious is what you have probably though about Goth Subculture...
The Goth subculture is a contemporary subculture found in many countries. It began in United Kingdom during the early 1980s. Members who belong to the Goth culture may or may not always share the same interest in terms of music , fashions and others. A group of people who feel comfortable within each other. There is no specific things that defined what you need to do or be to fit into the goth scence (except of course the black clothing !)
People in goth scence all have a different musical tastes,
follow different religions, have different occupations, hobbies and also fashion sense.Goth are free thinker, people who do not accept the moral rules of the society because they are told "This is just how it is" or "this is what God says".
Many goths today are goths for a variety of other reasons. They like a music or the club are better , they have goth friends and joined in with them or they just like staying up late nights and goths are the only ones awake to talk to.
Gothic fashion has also been associated with dark clothing that often goes towards black. Typical gothic fashion includes dyed black hair , dark eyeliner , black fingernails and black clothing (goths may or may not have piercings).
The gothic subculture has also been a source of inspiration for artists and musicians as well. This culture is also found with horror. Most artists who used the goth subculture as a base for their works always used romantic and mystic image for their work. Movie such as 'The Crow' and bands such as the Bauhaus helped established the gothic image as dark , depressing and even evil.
