1: An extinct East Germanic Tribe whose language died out over a century years ago. Famous for sacking Rome.
2: An alternative subculture centered around goth music from the late 70s into the early 80s. Once fans of Punk, they developed a darker style of Post-Punk that would be called Gothic Rock. Today, goth music includes: Gothic Rock, Deathrock, Dark Wave, Ethereal Wave, Cold Wave, (some) Gothabilly, and Batcave. Many goths also like New Wave, Post-Punk, Industrial, and Shoegaze. (Note: all genres of Heavy Metal including Gothic Metal and most of Industrial are *not* goth. neither is Emo, a type of Hardcore Punk fused with Indie Rock nor gothbois, a group of soundcloud rappers).
Goths are not depressive or self-harming, this is a stereotype from the 2000s. Goths also do not believe in asinine and false concepts like "seeing beauty in darkness" or the worse notion that goth is a lifestyle. Goths are not "all accepting" and have genre rules just like Metalheads and Punks. Goths are not a trash bin for any social outcast, and they aren't always kinky or promiscuous either. Goths are people with a common taste in music and dress a certain way to find their tribe. Goths are otherwise like any other person with differing interests, needs, socio-economical class, political beliefs, ethnic backgrounds, and personalities. The only difference from the general population is they keep their music scene underground and away from mainstream media.

1: "Oh man, I'm glad I wasn't in Rome when the Goths came."
2: "One of the best songs to understand Goths has to be 'Sexbeat' by Sexbeat. A true goth anthem!"
