“Can’t we just kick it old school? I could just put the baby in a basket and send it your way. You know, like Moses in the reeds.”

An old school goth is one who listens to goth rock that was recorded and released from 1979-1985 (the prototype goth era) before the goth subculture embraced techno, goth metal and industrial music. These old school goths do not always wair overtly costly clothing like modern goths and are often be found in more everyday clothing. Old school goths will often listen to bands such as bauhaus, The Cure, The Damned, Siouxsie and The Banshees (in other words, post punk and goth rock) as well as various other genres that influenced or are asscosiated with the early goth movement such as dub, reggae, punk rock, glam rock and genres that influenced early goth rock. Most old school goths never listen to goth metal and certainly object to the commercialism of the goth subculture and fashion as seen by mall punks and mall goths whom don't even listen to goth rock.
Old School Goth: I listen to Bauhuas and siouxsie and the banshees, then I listen to some of Iggy Pop and David Bowie.
New School/Mall Goth: Dude get with the times. listen to marylin manson he's fucking dark and hardcore, eww ya I got the new evanescance CD they're awesome goths.
Oldschool Goth: Fucking little teenage poseur.

A term that describes cool back in the day OG’s, hippies and hipsters. Peoples whose coolism lies in their old school back in the day ways. They have moral values that are fair, see all humans as equal, don’t steal, believe in the value of working for your living, hip, free thinkers with open minds. These people have a live and let attitude, is willing to a help a friend, a neighbor, a stranger. They find impossible to pass up a pan handler with out putting money in their hand. They are general non judge mental but to extent that they could be considered libtards. They are not afraid to stand up and stand against violence, racism, prejudice in all its forms, cronyism, corruption and government ills. They as a rule are anarchists. They don’t like The Man.

A person who views all relationships as a quest to find their soul mate, and does not pursue relationships for any other reason.
Additionally, there is usually little interest in random sexual encounters, as many believe the best physical relationship comes from a strong emotional one.

Mac has never had a one night stand, because he only wants to find his "true love", the idiot.
He's one of those old school romantics, so convinced "she" is out there.

A person who listens to old goth music (From the 80s), like Deathrock (Christian Death, Alien Sex Fiend, Specimen), Post-Punk (Bauhaus, Siouxsie and The Banshees, Joy Divison), Gothic Rock (The Sisters of Mercy, Fields of The Nephilim, Rosetta Stone) and maybe some New Wave (Depeche Mode, Duran Duran, Soft Cell), or anything related to the Batcave.
Old School aesthetics are punkish and cheesie, dark and sometimes elegant or sofisticated, but you don't have to dress goth to be goth.
They have no philosophy, nor a lifestyle, the only thiing that makes them a subculture is the music. Metal, Nu Metal, Industrial, EBM, or related genres are not included. Psychobilly, Horror Punk, Darkwave, New Wave and No Wave are related genres to goth, but generally are not considered goth, except for some Darkwave (Sopor Aeternus) and No Wave (Lydia Lunch) bands.
Goth music is not only music from the 80s, we have many groups from the 90s and 00s making goth music, like Naughty Zombies, Cinema Strange, Diva Destriuction, Joy Disaster, Faith and The Muse, Bat Attakk, London After Midnight, Two Witches, Frank The Baptist, All Gone Dead, etc...
