Coupled with a much more casual but deliberate dismissal of societal norms than the punk it descended from, and more than a little bonded to the deconstructive art philosophies of Dada

It was a queer culture that wasn’t focused around cis gay men, but around genderfuckery, transness, and powerful femininity

I went straight from the Mormon church to the waiting arms of goth and punk just a couple before it blew up into the mainstream in ‘96 , so yea, It’s complicated bc no one remembers that it was the -OTHER- gay culture

The artistic step by step falling apart of the structure of the song as the subject also descends into depression and despair that comes with “disintegration” is the musical equivalent of Absolute Cinema

It’s really just as easy for (let’s face it) white suburbanites to turn the music into “just a sound” as it is for them to turn the aesthetic into “just a look” with enough watering down. That’s why we NEED to insist on the philosophical underpinnings of the culture

I mean… yes and no… the aggrotech era proved that co-opting even industrial music isn’t impossible
⚧️Lela: Naturalborn of the Night🏳️⚧️ (@marionette.bzky.team) reply parent
It’s a culture rooted in queerpunk philosophy, I’d say. The music is as much an expression of that core as the fashion
