Goth was sort of the melancholy cousin of punk that says: there's a lot of evil in this world, there's a lot of very mean spirited people and that makes me sad.

About This Quote

The punk movement was a rebellion against society; however, many people viewed punk as a mere excuse for enjoying the music and style without any substance. As such, the gothic subculture was born out of the need to counter that perception. Goths felt that they were misunderstood and that their lives and emotions were often misconstrued because others did not understand them. Rather than raging against society, goths embraced it and made it their own.
