no, you’re thinking black metal. the corpse-like face painting? black trenchcoats in summer? that’s black metal.
piercings? look more to punk. tattoos? that’s most gen x/y groups except religious right.

but if you’re wanting to base attire as “look at me attitude” then i’m gonna say men in power suits are no different. that’s a HUGE “look at me” attitude. sceaming, “look, i look like i have money, i want to look classy, i want to be noticed for how classy i am.”

Yes, but black face painting AND trenchcoats (an/or vampire-like cloaks) AND piercings AND tattoos... Now THAT’S Goth!

It’s like you’re arguing a fish isn’t a fish (scales? that’s reptiles. Swims? That’s whales. Soft eggs? That’s arthropods. Limbless? That’s worms.)
