List of gothic rock bands

The following is a list of notable gothic rock bands in alphabetical order.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Band names shown in italics are those bands generally considered to be (or to have been) especially influential upon the wider Goth scene or subculture's stylistic/aesthetic evolution and/or on the musical evolution of subsequent gothic bands. This is, of course, a topic of continuing debate/personal beliefs. Therefore, no allusion to authority or comprehensiveness is intended.
