If you’re in Europe, Castle Party is next week, Amphi Festival is the week after that, and then M’era Luna is in August!
If you’re in the US… uh… the Gathering is in August? I dunno, I’ve been posting tour info on !gothindustrial@lemmy.world as I come across it… (edit: see here for a collection of tour/festival dates)
What would you call festivals that are emo themed like the ones you linked? Rock?
I’ve seen emo-themed nights advertised at clubs, for nostalgia. So they might just be called emo. Tho to bring in larger crowds they might use different terms, yeah.
The goths are all at Affleck’s Palace, as they always will be.

When I was growing up I knew exactly one goth, and he stank because he never showered. There were no goth girls, there were only grebs.
If the ship of Theseus were a meme
Em actually that’s not the ship of Theseus
Yeah, yeah. It’s just a picture.
SHUT UP, MAGRITTE!
This is not the ship of Theseus because all the parts have been replaced

The idea that the only Habitat of the Goth is the American Shopping Mall is a misunderstanding, as it is the habitat of the American Mall Goth. Here’s some other places where you can find Goths:
- New Age/Witchcraft shops (The Witchy Goth).
- Metal bars/Nightclubs (The Metal/Tradgoth).
- Medieval/Victorian Old Towns (The Lesser European Dark Academic Goth, The Greater European General Goth)
- Second Hand Bookshops (The Greater European Dark Academic Goth).
- Museums (The Medieval Academic Goth).
- Glasgow Central Station (The Glaswegian Cathouse Goth, also sometimes hybridised with the Electric Trainspotter due to interbreeding).
Visagoths?
Banks.
Rural Walmart has plenty of hick goths
You’ve also got the pain goths at bdsm events
As a 'murican, are there Museum Goths of the New World?
No, this is mainly due to the different ecological environment and also the destruction of American History bar some of the nationalistic elements by the US government and Capitalism.
Of course. The goths are an adaptable people.

I know a lot of the reason people say malls are failing is the internet but I also feel like its due to rising inflation. The malls that still exist near me are so fucking expensive. Most of the stores you can’t even get a T-shirt for less than $20.
Not to mention the privacy concerns. The local mall near me has banned face coverings and hooded jackets. I have no doubt’s that somewhere along the line footage is being sold to data brokers
Now I’m envisioning a battle royal between mall cops and ICE. We said no face coverings, get ‘em y’all.
Sorry for the reddit link, but theyre being pushed into grocery stores!
Lol, truth dying under the weight of lies
Goth girls were hunted to extinction by the rolling giants and the mall ecology collapsed as a result. The niche is now occupied by urbex enthusiasts and Julien Reverchon.
Gotta get a job at a coffee shop but not some corpo chain one of those fucks like black mud, or morning muck or some shit.

Don’t ask how I know but the one on the left is pretty insistent he’s a boy who just likes cute goth girl clothes.
That just makes him a cute goth guyfriend
True that.
the idea that goth girls are dependent on a consumerist habitat feels offensive
I’m sorry to tell you that hair dye, plastic glitter and make-up does not come from the ecologic goth homestead.
It came from the mall. Sorry.
you don’t need malls for hair dye and makeup, plus DIY goths always exist
malls tap into the goth demographic, not create it
It provably did not. I make my own eyeliner. Hair dye is from a co-op.
when was the last time you managed to set foot in a hot topic or spencers?
