Description

Emerging in the 1980s, Goth is rooted in the romantic ennui of eighteenth-century gothic novels. The style's pioneers, including Bauhaus, Joy Division, the Cure, and Siouxsie & the Banshees, wrote melancholy music with haunting guitar tones and echoing vocals. Through the 1990s, the Sisters of Mercy, Nick Cave, Cindytalk and many others continued the tradition of creating wan, poetic songs with processed, atmospheric guitars. Modern torchbearers include Marilyn Manson and Cradle of Filth.
