We took the photograph at the most famous suicide spot in England, which is called Beachy Head. The picture is not what it seems at all…Neither is the music once you take it home and buy it. We had this idea in our mind that someone would quite innocently come into a record store and see and think that they would be getting 20 really good jazz funk greats. Then they’d put it on when they got home and they’d just get decimated. / Cosey Fanni Tutti

So one day for fun I started a facebook group, the idea behind which was ‘people who like wearing loads of black designer clothes and listening to hip-hop/r&b/global bass/witchy stuff’ etc. And heck, there’s plenty of actual goth music to enjoy as well, from the artsy Virgin Prunes to the noise of Swans and Coil. It’s just way easier to enjoy outside of the rather miserable company of goths. The same idea applies to this blog. But why use the term at all? Why steal a word that already means something? The answer is: because I can. Because stealing is fun. Because as an ex-….not goth really, let’s say post-punk guy, I can appreciate the impetus and ideals of goth in its early days, which were simply: dress weird and have fun. No dumbass cheese romanticism and mopiness, just punky artsy disco kids in black. ’High fashion on skinny hip kids is not goth’? I say it is, and I say it while simultaneously not believing a word and knowing that it’s true. Pictureplane and CREEP are the Bauhaus and Siouxsie of the now. This is the New Goth, the exuberant ‘fake goth’ which overthrows the crippled ‘real goth’: “The old ways are dead and the past is over.” It’s not supposed to be taken very seriously but at the same time I’m super into the idea, which falls back to my love of the dissection and re-appropriation of pop culture in general. GG as a blog and as an idea is goofy and sexy and fun and brief: everything subcultures should be anyway.

That’s totally Allison Brie from Community, Mad Men as the #goth nerd from Wet Hot American Summer, or am I crazy?
