We are an independent website/blog/magazine
or whatever you want to label us. We are a community of music lovers
who appreciate pure music, not the commercial success of it. Our
working team is in fact an open group, so a lot of members join and leave as
they please. No strings attached and no fees paid. You can
call us a non-profit organization, although we are not that organized.
We encourage and support independent
artists, talented rock and electronic bands, good-hearted gothic
people and more. We don't care about commercial benefits and we
are an ad-free website. Genuine music lovers asked for a source that combines
new releases and compiles them into a monthly chart. So we created
our Top 20 Global Gothic Chart.
Some people do not fully understand
the word Gothic and they might think that it is related to evil
stuff. This is completely wrong. First, let us talk history: The
Goths were an East Germanic people who played an important role
in the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the emergence of Medieval
Europe. The Goths dominated a vast area of Europe and they had their
own language. In the 4th century, the Goths were gradually converted
to Christianity by Gothic bishop Wulfila.
Today, a goth is someone who sees
beauty in darkness, serenity, and emotion. It is about fashion, architecture,
music, and of course lyrics. But it is also about kindness and passion. In
music, the term "goth" is inseparably connected to gothic
rock and dark wave. Gothic Era's mission is to promote those wonderful
feelings produced by talented music artists from all over the globe.
