From the old;

 

 

To the new (with a video set to old footage);

 

 

Through to my latest release (out today to coincide with WGD24);

 

 

Here's to the music that made many of us want to pick up the bass back in the old days!

I was going to comment the same as @MacDaddy, Happy World Goth Day just doesn`t seem to fit.

Indeed. Arguably pre/proto Goth.

My home town band... some people site this/them as the originator of goth. UK Decay - The Black Cat.

I did a more jokey post for last year's WGD2023, saying a similar thing to you and pointed out that the early Goth had a bit of humour to it. I think the reputation can be very downbeat but as with all things, it's never quite as seems.

IMO some of the tunes are massively uplifting, even if the lyrics can be a bit dark.
