gothic

In relation to goth, gothic is a form of sterotype to the people who:
- wear black or victorian style, colorful mixed with black, or anything that may seem "dark"
- wear black eyeliner and like dramatic effects on their eyes (sometimes entire face)
- may have black hair, but a lot have other colors
- like music such as gothic music, death meta and dark metal....some bands may include the cure, sisters of mercy, and bauhaus
- typically wear black nailpolish supposably, but many wear bright colors
Basically people call other people gothic or goths because they wear black but not all do. It is a stereotype, and people think "gothic" people worship the devil, other gods, or are atheist or agnostic, or are wiccan. Those are religions, not all of these people worship those. I, being called a goth many times... believe that it's not right to call people this or any other name because they do not wear pink most of the time. Black is just a color, and some of us like it. I wear black and overall I'm a pretty friendly person to most people. I am not "gothic", but have been called this many times and it's not a nice thing to say. It's a stereotype that people use who know absolutely nothing about this. Not everyone who wears black or listens to certain music is suicidal or anything of the sort. Get over it, and get a life, stop making fun of people for being who they are if you don't like so called gothic people.
Gothic is a stereotype for people who wear black.
What people don't know is that people who are so called gothic don't always wear black.

gothencore

Melodic metalcore or "Gothencore"
The music is a combination of melodic and heavy guitars, fast paces and the inclusion of some hardcore elements, such as mosh breakdowns and two-steps. Sometimes, other influences, such as Meshuggah-esque time signatures or softer (often considered "emo" influenced by some), melodically sung parts.

Although the melodic or "Gothenburg Death Metal" genre was pioneered by bands like At The Gates, Dark Tranquillity, In Flames, Edge of Sanity, and later Arch Enemy and The Haunted, it has spread beyond the Gothenburg, Sweden metal scene and has influenced such American bands like Lamb of God, Shadows Fall and Bleeding Through who also share stong roots in the early metalcore and hardcore scenes.

One of the most popular bands in the American category of this style would most likely be Killswitch Engage, who have been signed to Roadrunner Records, a relatively large metal label. Trivium is another band in the same style who have also recently been signed to Roadrunner.

Other notable bands in this style: Unearth,Atreyu,As I Lay Dying, Dead To Fall, The Agony Scene, It Dies Today, Darkest Hour and Undying. Poison the Well are often credited as one of the bands that made this style of metalcore popular with their full-length debut 'The Opposite of December... A Season of Separation', but some would say they also play almost too chaotically (see below) to be placed under this style, and others would say that they have over time progressed away from it, deciding to go in different musical directions with each album released.
Some gothencore bands include: Killswitch Engage, Still Remains, Trivium, Unearth, Atreyu, As I Lay Dying, Dead to Fall, The Agony Scene, It Dies Today, Darkest Hour, Undying, Poison the Well

gothic

not all goths look sick and pale! its just make up! not all goths worship the devil! they paint their nails black cuz they like it and it looks cool! goths dont talk about stuff like how dark and shitty life is!
and by the way I AM GOTHIC!!!!! so if you insult them you are insulting me and i hate that!

all those people who hate goths are losers and are jealous! they paint their nails stupid, preppy colors and gossip all day. they have no idea what a goths life is like!

goths dont slit their wrists and write stupid poems!thats what most emos do. goths are just normal people who actually HAVE a sense of style! goths like to stand out and be different. we like our music and you like yours so leave it at that!

we are not miserable people! once again you are confusing us with emos. we like body peircings cuz they are awesome,cool and different. some of us even have tatoos. we dont give up our lives either! we dont worship death and we dont care about pain! we have many friends that we hang with all the time. Hot Topic is a place that we hang out and shop. you idiots have your place like Claires and shit like that.

WE ARE NOT FUCKED UP PEOPLE!!!!!
WE LOVE THE WAY WE ARE!!!!!
