An influential type of music was called new wave and rock in the 1980s. After a while, it branched out into its own subgenre, gothic rock. Christa Titus believes that "a Philadelphia-based concert promoter helped build the scene he serves – in this case, goth music." This was one of many steps taken to promote gothic rock over the decades. Through analysis, I realized that this music played an important role in the great strides in the development of the gothic subculture, especially during the duration of this era. Before the 1980s, Goth was just a word to describe certain aspects of our society, but at that time, no specific group of modern people were called Goth. Many years before, there were dark buildings that were part of Gothic architecture, widespread throughout the country, mainly in the form of churches, abbeys and cathedrals. This title referred to the barbarian Goths, after conquering Rome, when they constructed buildings in the same style. People began giving the Goth label to certain dark music in the late 1970s, known today as gothic rock. In an issue of the Library Journal, Matthew Moyer said: "Few genres are as maligned and caricatured as gothic rock...music as adventurous and vibrant, whose dark, dramatic sound is carried by brittle guitars and electronics and frozen. » This statement clearly shows his opinion on the music as unique music from the Goth label. The Goths of ancient times could be considered rebellious to the structure with their "uncivilized actions", compared to the rest of the civilization of that time. Compared to the subculture, they fit perfectly. These labels have in no way been assigned to a subculture still middle of paper ......e alongside society. Following this model, Gothic culture will forever be the stain of the “necessary structure” of our society. In an issue of Rolling Stone, they stated that “Shocking Pinks… DFA, the label co-owned by James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem, has taken over Shocking Pinks, the solo project of former Brunettes drummer Nick Harte. The band's debut drew inspiration from the slow gothic rock of Bauhaus and the stark post-punk of Joy Division, and Harte's mental state matched his sound: the twenty-seven-year-old New Zealander sang primarily about shooting the heroine, anticipating the end. of the world and (naturally) seeing your therapist,” the dark music of the 1980s was influential and allowed the goth subculture to fully develop into something no one will ever forget. New groups copy old ones and adapt to the times. Goth is now a popular subculture that has developed in the years 1980.
