wannabe goth

Share definition
A kid or teenager who tries to be a goth, but gets the wrong end of the stick. Usually seems to think it revolves around metal, Marilyn Manson, Slipknot, and other similar bands, wearing as much make-up as possible and hating your parents.

Google the quotes below for full interview:

"I listen to Marilyn Manson, Slipknot, Green Day, Good Charlotte and other sorts of punk metal or gothic rock.
I like to do magic spells and to look at runes books.
I wear black lipstick and black nail vanish and I also wear black eyeliner" - Shadow Mercy

"Near the end of year 7 I went to a school disco and I was completely gothic. It was so funny because I got a lot of attention." - Misery Whispers

"After a while I saw a few Goths in a group outside McDonalds I thought that they looked really cool.
After a while I decided to try and dress like it and soon I was dressed like it all the time. It was great to be able to express my feelings through the way I dressed." - Lord Mercy
