Goth or not?
Goth.
Goth.
Goth.
Goth.

That's the goth sound i started with. Because of my mum i grew up with sisters of mercy, new model army and fields of nephilim
As a metalhead venturing into goth music, it's surprisingly clean. Like even some "heavy" goth rock is using a light crunch guitar tone.
I was a teenager in 1982 .So & Gothic music was I listened to all the time. Like The Sister of Mercy , The Cult, The Cure, The Ministry, and so many more groups.
Good stuff!
I've gotta admit, I was a little hesitant to watch because in the past when I've seen people talk about what Goth music was and how to make it, they would confuse it with Gothic Metal or Black Metal but I'm so glad I stuck around. You pretty much nailed it. I'm so glad you went into detail about the guitar, how it sounds, and how to achieve the sound because that's the most important part of the Goth genre that makes it what it is. So thank you for taking the time talking about it in detail. Amazing video and great song at the end!
Thank you for the kinds words!
@@ItsWinterProductions you're welcome 😊
Funny enough, even as a guy with more experience listening to metal, this still reminded me of a song by an actual metal band called Agalloch. In case you’ve never heard of them, they’re a Portland, Oregon-based outfit who blend elements of black metal, neofolk, and post-rock, and while they’ve changed their sound a bit between albums, their first album has a song that sounds pretty much exactly like this one but with distorted guitars and harsher vocals.
"Grab your sunglasses and get ready to goth" AND grab your black lipstick AND grab your black lace gloves AND your feathered hat. As an aged goth I approve this video
Thank you!
I own pretty much every piece of gear used in the past for this style of music including a Copicat tape delay, original MXR flanger, Dynacomp, many original Boss and Ibanez pedals, HH IC100S amp, SPX90, Lexicon PCM60, Spring reverb, RX5 drum machine and a TEAC tape machine. So here is the absolute final word on sounding like a real Batcave band:
1. Distortion goes last in the chain. I cannot stress this enough.
2. Don't use lo-fi analogue delays, instead use either tape delay or early digital, or in a pinch the most hifi analogue delays rack delays. I made this mistake for a long time, the DD3 is much closer to that ghostly tape delay than a DM2. I know Billy Duffy uses a DM2, but there is a reason that everyone else chose the most high fidelity of the analogue delays and then immediately switched to digital when it became available.
3. The core sound is essentially some kind of comb filter, either chorus or flanger going into distortion either pedal, or cranked amp.
4. The dynacomp is pretty important for cleaner sounds and also creates a perception of distance. When a sound is far away it has echos, it losses top end and it is more compressed.
5. If I was to do everything over again for less money I would just buy pre 1994 Boss pedals and call it a day. The engineers at Roland just had that sound in their heads and voiced pretty much every product from the late 1970s to the early 1990s with that sound. Heck even their synths from that era had that sound. Just grab a CE-2, a DS-1, a BF-2, a SD-1, a CS-2 and a DD-3, and you're done.
Very goth! It has a Sisters Of Mercy vibe to it.
Absolutely nailed that 90's goth sound. Thanks for giving tips on pedals and setup. That definitely helps. I need to get a chorus pedal to get that effect I've been after. Thanks and stay spooky!🦇🕸️💀
U should also create a „how to modern goth“
Cause all clubs are full of EBM/future pop stuff and within 7 hours there is only one oldschool song lol
Not EBM! AGGROTECH! I'll never get why people confuse the two...
I want to take this lesson and combine it with your Dungeon Synth video for some super vampiric vibes ⚰️
Great idea 🍷
@@ItsWinterProductions i don't know if you've heard of the video game Blood, from 1997. But it's sound track is very reminiscent of Dungeon Synth, it's actually what got me to search for similar style music and I discovered Dungeon Synth :)
I love these kind of videos as, despite being factually (almost) accurate, they always make me laugh out loud with their stereotyping of Gothicana music & style.
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed!
Was really getting into Goth music, really late in my life I might add and was looking for guides and stuff, Glad I came across this, really informative and helpful plus it was quite a banger. Gave me sisters of mercy vibes
Cool! I'm glad you enjoyed the video, man!
i need this song on spotify please
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll submit it for Spotify, should be up in a couple of weeks
That was super Goth
Fucking love this. Reminds me of Love Like Blood from Germany.
Glad you like it!
Thanks for explaining
Hauntingly Beautiful!
Great video! Your song gives me heavy Fields of the Nephilim vibes :)
Thanks! Fields of the Nephilim was my main influence!
Thank you I been trying to figure out every detail and you just taught me every detail excellent video
Amazing!
Any idea of upcoming tutorials and genres? I really think you do these really well. I'd love to see these:
-Black 'n Roll
-Industrial Metal
-Black Doom Metal
-Early Black Metal (e.g. Bathory)
Thanks for the suggestions!
@@ItsWinterProductions
Trip Hop as well :)
@@ryanhunter226 a trip hop tutorial would be amazing
This is wicked dark! Great vocals
Thanks!
Very nicely done!
Thank you!
Awesome
...yup. Pretty Excellent.
Carl McCoy nods and smiles 🤘🏼
I really liked this video
The romanian accent part JAJJAS amazing video!
Thank you!!
😃👍👍👍Amazing Goth Music❤️
Such a great song at the end lol, you should make an ep
Thanks! I play in a goth band called Of Blood and Wine. You can check them out for more similar stuff
Sounds like fields of the nephilims earlier stuff.
Cool, that's what I was going for
Amazing
Thank you!
this is literally the best goth rock song i've ever heard, wow!
Well Done! I love how it brings elements from some of my favorite bands. Did you use a drum machine? Where did you get the bass track? I Feel bass is pretty important with the cleaner sounding songs.
I made the drums with vst drum machine Superior Drummer 3. As for the bass, I played it with a cheap Harley Benton 5-string through MOOER GE200 multieffect pedal
I play bass for this goth rock band called "Of Blood and Wine". We just released our debut album. If you liked this tutorial, you'll probably enjoy our album as well! You can listen to it / buy it here: savo-karelianproductions.bandcamp.com/album/vampyres-other-bedtime-attractions
Industrial metal next?
im here for research
Cool! In song your vocals reminded of cradle of filth spoken voice. And while you were explaining the subject, it sounded like Jyrky69 ))
I'll take that as a compliment! 🍷
What tuning is the best for this genre?
bro !
Goth enough
I saw a goth on the train a few days ago and I felt kind of bad for her, like the genre is almost extinct. Metalheads exist and so do other genre followers in much more numbers but goths? I can't remember seeing many at least here in my city of Zurich.
We are underground! 😝🖤
Because it's insanely hard to get into goth music because there's so much debate on what even is goth
@@MiniMight agree. I was getting into goth but was told quite aggressively that the music WASN’T goth. Even though lots of goths like the bands anyway. I am more into goth rock which apparently isn’t goth.
Goth here. I don't look it right off the bat 🦇
@@thehe2546 Who told you goth rock isn't goth? I can't believe this person called him/herself goth. Goth is subculture based on goth rock, post-punk and darkwave. People who listen to this music, are called goths. If you listen to it, you are goth. Welcome to the community! Don't listen to these people. Apparently they have no idea what they're talking about.
Awesome reverse engineering of goth and all other styles. You rock your talk
69 EYES !!!

"Sing as deep as possible" I am killing you with rocks we need more Alien Sx Fiend and less... idek I can't be bothered to think of one of the 7 million clone bands with too-deep vocals that are incomprehensible and sound like garbage for it.
It used to be either imitate Sisters of Mercy or imitate Christian Death. Luckily we finally got beyond that...
Let's please not repeat the old mistakes!
just sounds like a metal kid trying to make his parents goth- congrats you've invented Tourist Goth. It's missing all of the nuance that truly define a genre. Kinda like Beyonce's 'country' album.
An enormous amount of gothic rock actually sounds like country
@@isaiahrice190 It sounds like surf rock... thats its roots. The Shadows were a massive instrumental surf rock band from the UK- look em up and you'll hear the influences.
@@isaiahrice190I hear ya on that one.
Fun factoid......
Wayne Hussey,guitarist of Sisters of Mercy, The Mission and Dead or Alive at various stages of his career, often plays in a clawhammer style and is influenced by English Folk music.A Lot like many Country artists so you're spot on with that observation.
@@denisdowling3971 I really love Rose Of Avalanche. Fields Of The Nephilim may be an obvious example, but there's also tons of obscure artists who deserve mention! My channel has four complications of old goth stuff. If anyone is interested or wants requests, push it! I'll try to upload more.
Fucking bravo. Nailed it.
Thanks!
