Gothic BC

The calendar view has been removed, as well as some of the ways to enter the forums. It's still possible to create dated event listings and new forum posts, but I am de-emphasising the content.

For some time now my interest and ability to mantain the site as an active resource have been waning and the amount of user-created content has been approacing zero and I spend far too much time removing spam. In other words, after nearly 25 years, Gothic BC is dying.

So much of what she says here in deconstructing "Goth Rap" covers off why more and more I feel like turning off Gothic BC for good.

A sentiment I wholly endorse

Born in the 80s, goth is still going strong. Four devotees discuss the music and fashion and how love of the macabre draws together a warm and friendly scene

Goths are perhaps the most maligned of all subcultures. Over the decades, they have been unfairly blamed for high-school shootings, depression in teenagers and antisocial behaviour. In reality, goths are a collective of people bound by a shared love of fashion, music and art.
