Download Tag: Goth A popular subculture movement based on both visually and emotionally dark themes, such as Halloween and the Biblical apocalypse. Goth styles range from the elegant, sometimes based on medieval through late 19th-century aristocratic fashions, to the bizarre and sometimes painful-looking modern twists. Some distinctive characteristics are: the color combinations of black, crimson, and silver, or black and blue, or black and purple; crumbling stone structures such as ancient buildings or grave markers; overgrowth; depressing music; and symbolic representations of danger belying beauty such as thorny roses, fire, or seductive monsters.
The term “nonconformist” is sometimes used interchangeably with “Goth” and other superficially similar (dark palleted) subcultures such as “Emo”.
