We used to be either punks or goths - we hate Nazis!
When it comes to influences, we are influenced not just by Japanese and overseas metal acts, but J-pop acts too. One Japanese rock band we're particularly fond of is Seikima-II. We were attracted by their brand of devil imagery and of course, their high-quality musicianship.
I got a lot of influences. I got relevant influences today. I got influences that you wouldn't even think of. I'm very influenced by Marilyn Manson. His style is ridiculous. Like, honestly, if you want me to keep it 100, Marilyn Manson has as much style as Kanye West and Pharrell Williams.
I was a goth in my student days. I dyed my hair black, but it came out grey, with a blue scalp. Then I dyed it red and it came out fuschia pink.
I like the dark, mysterious, maybe even gothic type girls. They have to have a good personality too! I'm very picky!
People are very surprised when they see me. Here is this crazy Gothic woman, but when they speak to me in person, they realize I'm a nice girl. I love to interact with my fans.
To me, goth is like really hard black lipstick, black nails, black clothes.
I like simple clothes, but sometimes I'll go for a goth-witch vibe.
Honestly, if you want me to keep it 100, Marilyn Manson has as much style as Kanye West and Pharrell Williams. He has a lot of style. I'm telling you, it's crazy. It might be a little darker, but it's crazy.
I am down with the latest trends. And everyone knows, the thing on the streets is vampires. So I have been biting people on the neck.
I read some, and then visited with people involved in this curious, exciting and somewhat misunderstood sub-culture. I met with a fang maker, who offered to fit me for an exquisite pair.
For me, Gothic is something from my youth, when I had a heavy metal phase.
You can only maintain an immensely gothic attitude for so long before either killing yourself or beginning to feel like a poser.
The vamp in McMann’s stared at me. I guess he didn’t like the Goth look. Most of them don’t; somehow they think I’m making fun of them. Which I totally am.
When I was 14, 15, 16, I was wearing 'Edward Scissorhands' and 'Nightmare before Christmas' stuff. I saw 'Sleepy Hollow' a dozen times.
I call myself 'Bubblegoth.' I'm really into the goth and industrial stuff, but also the cute and rave-ish stuff, so I'm trying to put it all together.
I don't know if I would describe myself as a little goth. But the all black is very New York.
I've always liked wearing black. Hats with veils would suit me just fine.
I'm thinking about entering a Marilyn Manson costume contest to see if I lose.
Yes, obviously, I would love to play a vampire! I mean, I went to Hot Topic and got the fake vampire teeth for Halloween in middle school. Obviously, I want fangs sometime!
Steampunk is...the love child of Hot Topic and a BBC costume drama
My aesthetic is very black.
I prefer to stick to my old-lady goth/Steve Tyler look. I've found my look - white lipstick, black eyeliner, black clothes.
You look like a Goth factory exploded all over you!" he called as she ran down the hall. "Love you, too, jackass!
I got into my very theatrical phase. I wore only black: a big black hat and wild hair and wild black clothes, and I carried a sword stick. I went there still looking like Miss Florida, and I came back looking very different.
