Talk:Emo Goth/@comment-90.221.1.142-20141112232015/@comment-2A02:C7D:4B11:8800:ED7C:6446:40FF:1C63-20180210125936

Well it's true, no actual goth or punk would label themselves 'emo' or 'scene' with the goth or punk tag in front. I adore emotive hardcore/skramz, and I adore goth rock/deathrock but I would never call myself an 'emo goth' because they're just two separate interests. Just because they're both scenes doesn't mean I have to put them together to make one. You can be part of different subcultures at the same time.

And I know this comment was written in 2014, and I understand both subcultures (if you can call 'emo' a subculture) a bit more now, but it's got nothing to do with aesthetic. It's really down to what I said before, that they're separate interests and there simply isn't a subculture called 'emo goth subculture' which mixes the two together. The description on this doesn't have anything to do with emo or goth either, because since they're both musically based sub-genres, you'd have to listen to both emo and goth, not alternative rock/metal, or soft metal, to be 'emo goth'.
