pop goth 

1. a brand of music that takes the roots of gothic rock and waters it down into plastic, manufactured, mainstream, radio-friendly swill. Much like pop punk, but with goth music instead.

2. bands that the mainstream often perceives as goth, but, in actuality, are as far as any band can get from being so.

Notable bands within this genre include:

the 69 Eyes
A.F.I.
Aiden
Cradle of Filth
Evanescence
H.I.M.
Marilyn Manson
My Chemical Romance
Panic! at the Disco
Slipknot
I'm so sick of these magazines referring to MCR as "goth". Why don't they call it what it really is --"pop goth"?

I told my little brother to turn down the HIM. I'm not in the mood for pop goth.

Shops and hangs out at Hot Topic and looks more Emo than Goth, wearing a lot of red and vapes/smokes weed.

Gets mad at “posers” when they themselves are a poser that has only heard of the Gothic Bands Joy Division and The Cure; doesn’t know Gothic Terminology and misuses it a lot/calls Metal music Goth.

Posts about their horrible “disorders” that they developed for attention. Actually listens to a lot of Panic! At The Disco. Has only one Gothic Go-To Outfit.

Has a stuck up Gother-Than-Thou attitude, and relies on others to do their bidding since they can’t handle actual conflict.

When makeup is worn, they either overdo it or do it horribly, the same for their teased hair.
“I saw this Goth at the Mall a couple weeks in a row wearing the same Joy Division shirt and black ripped jeans. They might be a Mall Goth.”

cyber goth 

cyber goths or "cybers" belive in a prolonged life by means of either natural increased lifespan , as in our life spans have increased naturally , where we could only live till 20 max in the past we now have 100 year olds , or by advanced technology , they belive that in the future we will be transhumanoids , (part human , part robot ) so that we can eventually live forever as our internal organs will be machine powered so theres less chance of failure , but as with most things this has now become a fashion trend , cyber goths wear cyber goggles , dreads , and bright coulour , they usually listen to industrail music and go to raves
person :hey cyber why do you have that computer chip stuck to your face ?

cyber goth 

Cyber goth is a form of goth in which they wear ridiculously large neon dreds, goggles, and drawn-in eyebrows to where they look like tacky drag queens.

Many are extremly arrogant and usually elitist, they think they're 'bad-ass' because they like to overuse the term 'cunt' and generally won't talk to you unless you're as bitchy as they are.

Would you believe how obnoxious some cyber goth (s) are? They wouldn't talk to me until I shaved my eyebrows!

CYBERGOTH: Don't be upset because I'm better than you, more original and don't like you. I am the Queen Cunt.

OTHER PERSON: You and and the other 500,000 cyber goths who claim that title.
