still thinkng about how when Wednesday came out people hated on the dance scene song, when they clearly do not know that The Cramps are a parent of goth and is one of the first recognizable proto-goth bands

not to be an elitist, but know your music history you posers

listen to these and tell me its not goth as fuck:

Daily drawing 7/365

Messing with Vincent’s design, I’m trying to make it a bit more accurate to what I think a goth living in a mid 80s, conservative small town would look like. He doesn’t wear a lot of makeup past eyeliner so I’m thinking of maybe adding fishnets in there somewhere to complete the look. He looks more 70s punk adjacent here than anything, which isn’t helped by the fact it’s only a half body drawing and you can’t see that he’s wearing pikes

I could try dressing him up in some very draping, gloomy all black clothes but not only is that not how I picture him in my mind, that’s more of Veronica’s thing. Still keeping this idea in the back of my mind anyway

Also messing around with my style a bit. Not overly happy with how it came out. These days I just find myself confused when I try to mess around with my style. This could either mean I’ve finally found a consistent process I like and want to stick to, or this round of experimenting just didn’t work

(I know the difference here doesn’t look huge compared to my other drawings but it matters to me. So.)

Meat of Youth - Meat Of Youth

After K Decay split, three members stayed together and recorded under the name Slavedrive on the compilation LP The Whip. However, the CD reissue of The Whip credits the song to UK Decay...and as Meat of Youth on the LP release : Young Limbs, Numb Hymns : The Batcave Compilation. Soon after they changed their name again to Furyo in mid 1983. So basically they are an early goth punk, tribal, deathrock, ...& batcave band.
