Delete/Merge with gothic subculture
editThis article is pointless, besides I can't find any reference that links all the subcultures mentioned with the term of "dark culture".Fae-Baudelaire (talk) 21:45, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
- The Gothic subculture is connected to Gothic music. Gothic music means Wave and Post-punk-related styles such as Gothrock, Coldwave, Deathrock etc.
- Dark culture =/= Goth subculture. The "dark culture" is a bundle of different subcultures with similar interests, maybe a European phenomenon. --Feu Follet (talk) 13:50, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Feu Follet is right. "Dark culture" describes a mixture of different musical subcultures, such as goth metal, folk metal, dark electro, industrial and dark wave. Thus, gothic is one component of "Dark culture". I'm not sure, but I think this confluence of subcultures is a distinctly German phenomenon (I'm from Germany), for which there may be no widely accepted english term. The original German term is "schwarze szene" (literally translated, "black culture" !). In support of my suspicion, the only real article on this is in the German language version. The italian article is only about goth.
As far as I can tell, the "Dark culture" szene is pretty apolical.
