Gothic rock

Gothic rock (sometimes called goth rock) is a genre of rock music that originated during the late 1970s. Originally bands from the genre had strong ties to the English punk rock and emerging post-punk styles. The genre itself was defined as a separate movement from punk rock during the early 1980s. Gothic rock artists deal with dark themes and intellectual movements such as gothic horror, Romanticism, existential philosophy, and nihilism. Read more…|Edit this Artist photo: Autumnblaze

Check this artist out guys, he's massively over rated. He's like a fusion of post-punk, folk and gothic. http://www.last.fm/music/Paul+Roland
