Post-punk goth, also known as gothic rock or simply goth, is a subgenre of post-punk music that emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It is characterized by its dark, brooding sound, heavy use of reverb and chorus effects, and melancholic lyrical themes.
The genre has its roots in the UK, where bands such as Bauhaus, Siouxsie and The Banshees, and The Cure were influential in establishing the iconic goth sound.
Musically, post-punk goth draws heavily from punk rock, new wave, and the early gothic country post-punk sound, blending piercing guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and haunting, ethereal vocals. It is often associated with an overall sense of darkness, mystery, and the macabre, and is popularly associated with Gothic fashion.
Post-punk goth has had a significant impact on popular music, influencing a wide range of subsequent subgenres, from industrial and dark wave to emo and alternative rock. Today, it remains a beloved and enduring genre, with a dedicated fandom that continues to make it an important part of the alternative music landscape.
