 Gothic rock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The earliest gothic bands were Bauhaus, Gloria Mundi (credited as the first goth band by Mick Mercer), and UK Decay.
This is because "gothic" started out as a label and these groups labeled as such were part of the greater punk, post punk, and new wave scene.
Associating the goth subculture with the first generation of gothic bands can be a bit controversial.

 Russian Gothic Page - GOTHIC FAQ
Wherever "gothic music" is used, it denotes the gothic music genre as a such - the one that is considered a part of the alternative music in whole and includes wildly different subgenres, such as gothic rock, gothic ambient, darkwave, and others.
Gothic subculture appears to be the most diverse of the existing subcultures; it is impossible to imagine, say, a head-banger not listening to metal bands, for this is the only thing that makes him a head-banger.
Gothic rock wave was started by the first gothic rock band to ever exist, the Bauhaus.

 BRGoths FAQ
Modern Gothic rock music tends to include elements of the fantastic, elements of horror, the supernatural, and is generally dark in its mood, often making use of minor chords and electronic processing of sound to achieve haunting and chilling effects.
Gothic rock bands include such early pioneers as the Virgin Prunes, Fields of the Nephilim, Southern Death Cult, Alien Sex Fiend, Bauhaus, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and the Sisters of Mercy.
Similarly, Gothic music depicts subjects of fantasy such as vampires and the undead, and there are always those who take these images as literal truth rather than the artistic fantasies they are intended to be.

 Rants: Gothic Rock
Gothic Rock, as it was originally known, was born with the song "Bela Lugosi's Dead" by a british band called Bauhaus in 1979.
Said genre is now long since dead - just as dead as punk, in fact (and no, Good Charlotte most certainly don't play punk).
Neither do HIM, Nightwish, Tristania, Evanescence, The 69 Eyes, The Crüxshadows, London After Midnight or any other of these poseur-populated bands play this highly misinterpreted genre of music.

 The 69 Eyes: album reviews and ratings
Full of gothic rock clichés (what better than Gothic Girl for a song title!), the music on this record is catchy, and full of stellar guitar riffs.
Like this gold-gone taster single the highly anticipated new album 'Blessed Be' was produced by Johnny Lee Michaels who as "the sixth member" of the band did all the arrangements and handles all keyboards and programming on the album as well.
In 1999 with its unique concept of Gothic melancholy mixed with hi-energy rock'n'roll roots of the band, the album not only brought some long-waited fresh blood into the Gothic scene but also launched a new term to the media: Goth'n'Roll.
