Best Answer

neither marilyn manson and slipknot are goth. marilyn manson is associated with mall goths or spooky kids, and slipknot is a nu metal band. however, you can totally be goth and listen to these amazing artists, you just have to listen to real Goth Music in addition to it such as the cure, the sisters of mercy, bauhaus, and siouxsie and the banshees. also, goth isn’t just music taste. it’s an aesthetic, a lifestyle, a way of thinking, and a general preference for dark things. hope this helps xx

Listening to this kind of music doesn't make someone a goth, however, it does show what he or she has taste in and might become someone of a goth.

The goth culture has prospered in the United States at an unprecedented rate, with the emergence of heavier genres of music.

He has never personally identified with the Goth genre.


Is Marilyn Manson goth?

Marilyn Manson isn't really a goth. You could consider his makeup and dress style goth but then you would have to call Alice Cooper and KISS goth. But if you want ti be the same type of goth this is what you do, 1 dress in a way that you find shocking yet cool to your own style 2 Be yourself. Manson is 41 years old he has been a "goth" since before there were really "goths" as we know them.


Do true goths listen to slipknot or does that make them poser?

Goths can listen to whatever music they want as long as they also listen to some actual goth music. If you want to listen to Slipknot, you can, just be sure you also have something like The Cure, The Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, or Siouxie and the Banshees on your iPod.


Do real goths listen to slipknot or does that make them poser?

If you question yourself on being a poser, then you are one. It's that simple. Being a goth is a lifestyle, not a music preference.


Why do people call you goth just because you wear black and listen to Manson and worship Satan when you are just you?

Because 'people' are ignorant or have been brainwashed by other ignorant people, sometimes the media. And because people in mainstream society can often be extremely simple minded and superficial, only taking notice or consideration of what they can see on the outside.Also, Goths do not all worship Satan, there is no official religion of the goth scene. They also rarely listen to Marilyn Manson. These things are usually reserved for confused teenagers who are going through a phase and are very lost and confused about life. People who are actually part of the Gothic scene recognize the damage that Marilyn Manson has done to their way of life by making Goths look like violent and suicidal people when in actuality most of them are not.


How do you be goth?

Listen to Goth Rock. This includes: Bauhaus, Siouxsie and the Banshees/Siouxsie Sioux, Skeletal Family, Alien Sex Fiend, Sex Gang Children, Blood Dead and Sexy, .45 Grave, 13th Moon, Veronica Lip Gloss and the Evil Eyes, etc. This does NOT include: Marilyn Manson, 69 Eyes, Lacuna Coil, Slipknot, Evanescence, etc. You DON'T cut your wrists to be Goth. You DON'T wear nothing but black to be Goth. You DON'T shun people to be Goth. You DO enjoy listening to Gothic Rock, Batcave, Dark Cabaret, Darkwave, etc. All that really matters is that you enjoy Goth music.


Is marilyn Manson only famous cause he took the name of a psychopath murderer added to a beautiful legend?

He has became famous through his obscene performances, goth-like music, and his make up.


Your best friend has black hair and dresses black but talks and does not listen to rock is he a gothic person or not do gothics have to have more characteristics to be a goth?

goth is a music and fashion subculture contrary to popular belief it is not a state of mind,religion etc. if your friend shops at hottopic and listen to nu-metal(evanessence,korn,slipknot etc.)they are not goth, they are a poseur. if the listen to siouxsie and the banshees,bauhaus,sisters of mercy, astrovamps, all gone dead,joy division,the cure etc. and buy their clothes in underground stores or make them themself the are a goth. goths can be perfectley normal, most of what you think you know about them is false.
