ELECTRO-GOTH
a.k.a. Darkwave, Industrial Goth

Strictly speaking, the terms 'darkwave' and 'electro-goth' are distinctive and separate, though in practise the boundaries have blurred to the extent that they can be dealt with together. They essentially refer to the many forms of electronic goth music (as opposed to the guitar-driven rock-oriented trad-goth sound), often thought as the point where industrial & gothic music cross over. Darkwave in particular is a difficult term to pin down, having originally been used to a number of the darker, romantic electro-pop acts (particualary the German duo Deine Lakaien), a selection of electronically-influenced gothic bands (such as Girls Under Glass and Goethes Erben) as well harsher electro-industrial/EBM acts like Project Pitchfork and Das Ich.

Whilst the style is most frequently associated with Germany (and is probably the only scene-friendly style outside of medieval that's indigenous to the country), practioners from elsewhere include Die Form from France and Attrition from the UK, as well as Kirlian Camera from Italy, though all three of these bands have rich and varied backcatalogues that incorporate a whole host of other musical influences. Attrition began as a particulary noisy industrial project, for instance, whilst Phillipe Fichot's early experimental electronic works as Die Form were only fractionally more accesible. Kirlian Camera, meanwhile, have always been something of a law unto themselves, working in numerous electronic styles throughout their two decades in the business.

Despite their stylistic range, all of the listed acts specialise in especially 'dark' forms of electronic music, vocal styles varying substantially from artist to artist - anything from the festishy fem-vox of Die Form to the apocalyptic tones of Das Ich is acceptable. The style remains somewhere close to the forefront of the gothic and industrial scenes to this day, acts such as L'ame Immortelle, Diary of Dreams and (until recently) Blutengel continuing to push the envelope yet further, whilst most of the founders of this genre continue to produce worthy music years after they set out on their original mission.
