Introduction to Gothic Music
Gothic music is a genre that emerged from the post-punk movement in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Characterized by its dark, mysterious, and often melancholic sound, Gothic music draws heavily from themes of romanticism, death, and the supernatural. The genre originated in the UK, with bands like Bauhaus and Siouxsie and the Banshees leading the way. Over the decades, Gothic music has evolved, incorporating elements from various other genres such as darkwave, industrial, and electronic, yet always maintaining its distinct atmosphere and thematic focus.
