“You must own at least nine Rosetta Stone bootlegs to get into the club. I don’t make the rules, I just enforce them.”
We like to mark every 25th episode of the podcast with some sort of special theme or format, and so on this episode we’re taking up the hefty topic of to what degree goth is a subculture tied to music. Grab your snakebite and Aquanet and expect gatekeeping, gateletting, takes spicy and mild, and no small amount of cattiness. We’re also talking about the passing of Roli Mossiman, the news of North American And One dates, and a Devours gig.

Also, a lot of people I’ve seen/interacted with online don’t consider Depeche Mode, industrial or EBM as goth music.
