Reply to this post and I will (eventually) respond with something for you to post your top five or ten of.

nuadha_prime asked for my Top Five Goth Bands.
Old; Joy Division technically pre-dates goth, and SoM, Bauhaus and The Cure have all stated that they aren't and never were goth. Which is sooooo goth.
New; The line between goth and EBM/"cyber" has gotten pretty blurry...
And a special award goes to The Swans for being the most bleakly depressing band of all time.

- The Sisters of Mercy
- The Cure
- Alien Sex Fiend
- Bauhaus
- Joy Division
New; The line between goth and EBM/"cyber" has gotten pretty blurry...
- The Birthday Massacre
- Abney Park (steampunk darlings, yes, but they sound like a goth band to me)
- Ayria
- Bella Morte (blurring over into punk/nu-metal, but they wearenough eyeliner to rank as goth in my book)
- The Cruxshadows
And a special award goes to The Swans for being the most bleakly depressing band of all time.

I also harbour fondnesses for Rosetta Stone, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry, Fields of the Nephilim and, of course, Siouxsie and the Banshees.

For your classic goth list, I would probably post almost the same list, but bumping Bauhaus up to #2. Otherwise, the same.
Of your new bands, I have only heard Cruxshadows, but liked what I heard. (I may have heard other at the club here but I have no clue what they are playing.)
Go ahead and hit me with a list.
