I'm a #bisexual :v_bi: #ambiamorous :v_amam: boy who lives in Katowice, Poland - I also am a CompSci graduate who has been working in IT for the past 5 years 😊
My main obsessions are #goth and #vaporwave#music. I also enjoy #anime & video #games (as many people do :blobfox3c:) and I'm learning to play the #bass guitar. Among my other interests are #retro computing, #tarot, craft #beer, #archaeology, and #astronomy. I love chatting about all of my interests - do not hesitate to DM me if you wanna talk about any of them 💗
I also have 2 beautiful #cats :)
I love going on nerd rants about various micro-interests of mine, posting dumb memes, and also being very gay on main, you have been warned :blobcatevil: :Fire_Bisexual: I occasionally boost CW'd NSFW posts. 🔞
I've absolutely fallen in love with Fedi - I'm very happy that I found this lovely instance and was able to settle in here with all the wonderful people :blobCatComfySoff:
See you around 🥰

Anja Huwe, damalige Frontfrau der legendären Xmal Deutschland, bringt am 8. März 2024 ein Soloalbum "Codes" heraus - 35 Jahre nach dem letzten Album von Xmal Deutschland.
Happy Halloween! Can't believe it's here already, I think we should get at least 2 months of spooky season, one just isn't enough (especially when we know what everyone will be talking about from tomorrow). Hope you all have the spookiest of days and nights! https://blockforest.etsy.com/listing/1581644313
Think you don't know what qualifies as alternative fashion? I'm here to tell you that you do! Every time you notice someone's outfit being unique and different, you have identified alternative fashion. As said in the title, this is a massive category with an infinite amount of subcategories....
Bauhaus released their first single, “Bela Lugosi’s Dead” ⚰️
What an amazing first release. Absolutely foundational to the “goth” genre of music. It was the first thing the band recorded together, only six weeks after the band had formed. And it was recorded in a single take too 🤯
I can’t recall where I first heard this, probably in junior high around ‘83, there were a few cool goths in my school, but I do recall being psyched for a song about one of my favorite “monster movie” actors. And Peter Murphy’s voice is unforgettable.
First of the new cards this year! My take on the Welsh folk tradition of Mari Lwyd.
Nothing says Xmas than a skeletal horse banging on your door for beer and snacks in my opinion! And I know the Welsh feel the same.
Let’s go a-wassailing!
Tonight's #listening from the vault: Fields of the Nephilim - The Nephilim
It's late '80s goth metal named after mythical half-angel "giants" from the bible, so how bad could it be? It's actually maybe a little better than I remember (which is to say, it is good) as I think I thought it was a little dense at the time and not quite my vibe (yes, I listened to this when it was new and so was I), but I did spin it from time to time.
Since I was just given a free copy of their new, upcoming album, it's only fair that I talk about them here on Fedi for the first time 💗
I think I found out about this Norwegian 🇳🇴 project through post-punk.com if I remember correctly, and right off the bat I absolutely fell in love with them. Many of my gothy friends don't share this sentiment, but for me the sound of this release is just right up my alley. The post-punky, reverbed, chorused guitars mixed with the retro-hypnagogic-sounding synths (especially in "New Kind" and "Drives Me On") to me almost feel like a post-punk/vaporwave fusion - and if you know me, then you probably can tell that is just the perfect kind of stuff for my ears.
I love it so much. :gothsparkleheart: 💗
Their music disappeared off streaming recently, but they've mentioned that they plan to make a comeback sometime in the future :)

What makes a look alternative? Just ask yourself: do you see the day to day average person wearing this? No? Does it catch your eye for being different? Yes? Then it is likely alternative fashion! This category is massive.
