Carrying on from my thread Best English band.

1. HIM
2. Lacuna Coil
3. Nightwish
4. Marilyn Manson

[Zell's Fists of Fury]

Um. The Cure.

[theundeadhero]

Type-O-Negative? I don't consider Manson goth rock.

[Skogs]

Um. The Cure.

Or the Smiths.

Anything more recent is just guys in make-up.

[fire_of_avalon]

Lacuna Coil is goth?

I like The Cure. I'm not familiar with the Smiths.

I don't like whiney goth people.

[Chzn8r]

Nightwish has nothing in common with "goth" bands. They are symphonic / power metal, it's written all over them.

[Project G]

Sorry, retard moment, I forgot that the Cure and the Smiths were goth bands

[Mura Masa]

Slipknot
Metallica
Slapshock
Chicoscience
Korn

Honestly, I didn't like the bands mentioned above. But since my friends like em' so I began buying my own album.

Nina Hagen is goth rock?

[Rinoa_Galatea]

Korn is the Nu Metal Father, Korn is Nu Metal just like Evanescence!
I agree... Nightwish is Power Metal. Lacuna Coil is good! Marilyn Manson is good too... specify!

The Cure!!!!!!!! XD yeah!!!! jeez... I like them so much!

[Shoeberto]

I think it's really funny to see how back in the day, The Cure was considered THE goth rock group, singing catchy love songs that keep getting covered in Adam Sandler movies. Now you've got Marilyn Manson, singing anti-Christian and anti-government anthems. Times have changed.

[Fuzakeru]

I always have a hard time classifying groups. I know I like Lacuna Coil a WHOLE lot though. KoRn as well.
I'm on a Mindless Self Indulgence kick right now though so I haven't listened to much of those two.

Old goth was actually a bit sinister. These days they try too hard and end up looking rather silly.

Yeah some of her stuff are goth rock.

Don't you dare classify Metallica as being a goth band. They're far from it.

Anyway, the only 2 goth bands that I actually wouldn't mind listening to is Evanescence and possibly the Cure. I think I've heard a song from the Cure, but I'm not completely sure.

[Shadowdust]

I've never considered The Cure a goth band but nonetheless, they're one of my favorite bands. And SomethingBig, I don't believe Evanescence would like being called a goth band. According to some interviews, it's a bit of a pet peeve.

Sisters of Mercy weren't so bad back in the day. I enjoyed the Floodlands CD. Also, I enjoy a local Fresno band called The Shroud.

[Tokki Wartooth]

What the hell is goth music?

I like Type O Negative.

Meh, the girl looks like a goth, but woteva. I guess I don't like any goth bands, then.

[theundeadhero]

She always complains because they call her music christian rock too.

[jrgen]

Yeah some of her stuff are goth rock.
I see, most of the stuff I've heard from her is more punkish.
The best she's "done" is Fieber together with Oomph! and Seemann together with Apocalyptica though.
