Once was considered a Germanic tribe long ago, it is used now as a music genre branched from punk. It mainly came from the late 1970s to the whole entire decade of the 1980s. The goth music genres are mainly Post Punk, Gothrock, Nowave, and Deathrock. It was originally founded in the United Kingdom, and some of the bands were Siouxsie Sioux and the Banshees, Bauhaus, and Joy Division for example. The goth music and fashion scenes were also popular in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand in the same time periods. Most of the people who liked goth music liked the spooky sounding music. Goth is mainly about the music, but there are two styles of goth; Trad Goth and Deathrock. Deathrock dressed in deathawk, tartan pants, leather jacket, and the like. Deathrock is also to describe one of the branches of goth music. Alien Sex Fiend is an example of a Deathrock band. Trad Goths liked their hair really teased up and liked to wear leather jackets, vinyl pants or skirts, and wore their favorite post punk, deathrock, goth rock, or no wave band shirt. The batcave was very popular place to go to for goths. Mainly goth music and fashion is a diy, so most goths went to thrift stores to get their clothes. Joy Division is one of the most popular and cult like bands in the goth music scene today. Some other goth bands are Specimen, Sex Gang Children, The Cure, and The Birthday Party.

Their clothes often don't fit them very well, they're either too small or too big. Often found in deprived areas of Newcastle, loitering around school gates, corner shops and bus stops. Not to be mistaken with your typical radgie but they are of the same breed.

Get the Poverty Goths mug.First Defined on Urban Dictionary by ZA2K, in this description:
Someone who identifies as EMP-Goth (Electronic Metal Punk Goth) is part of an amalgamation of Alternative subcultures, usually collected by being a part of them each in passing. Resultimg typically in an Electronic Metalhead, who Fights for Social and Environmental Justice and Equality while embracing the dark aesthetic, fashion, and nihilism of their simultaneous Goth identity.
An EMP-Goth dreads existence, but recognizes that nothing makes existence even more shitty than oppression. Therefore fights actively against the oppression of others, rocking all black, and blaring cutting edge Metal music.
The reason it is abbreviated as EMP-Goth is because of the symbolism of (you guessed it) EMPs, or Electromagnetic Pulses. A blackout technology.
It's a symbol for both resistance to oppressors In a technology and internet centric era of society, and being a part of &/or standing up for the "blacked-out" or Disenfranchised intersections of society.
EMP-Goths genre was built due to gatekeeping from it's parent genres
The only ways you can be gatekept from being EMP-Goth is if you're: Elitest, Racist, Homophobic, Transphobic, Nazi, or otherwise a piece of shit that makes the fight for equality more difficult for those of us who just want to exist safely and happily.
Just like Punk. "It's for everyone, unless you're not for everyone"
