Edit history

Formed in 1987, The Goths held longstanding nocturnal residencies at memorable Brisbane venues the Bohemian Cafe, The Sitting Duck, Bertie's & Metropolis, The Dead Rat, and were one of the first acts to grace the newly minted stage of The Zoo in its earliest days. After a lengthy hiatus commencing in 1993, The Goths came back with a string of singles from the late 1980s/early 1990s. In 2018, ten debut singles were released through Ditto Music, Tree, Citadel, Skin Feature, Put It On, Midnight, Gloom, Smashed, Neck Romancer, Crusade, Wilderness, and by November 2019, The Goths had released a further twenty two singles, from the same period, this time through both Ditto and Fortitude Valley music publisher, Gyrostream. The band's moniker is a reference to the Gothic tale, a style of writing which tells tales that more often than not have a supernatural element to them or that fall into the category of the traditional ghost story, both of which were popular in the Victorian era.
