A brief history of goths - Dan Adams

Wouldn't the britons be celtic?

There were also the vandals, which is where we get vandalism

The Visigoths colonized the entire Iberian pennisuala and Northern Africa until the Moors drove them, who were by then Christians into north Iberian.

Came to learn about Goths
*Left with a detail of european history.

“Is it a weird coincidence or a deeper connection stretching across centuries?” Y’all wouldn’t have made a five and a half minute video about it if it was a coincidence.

This is excellent. Well done.

This was really well done, so much information, very easily digestible and fun, in a very short piece.

I loved this documentary, even more so showing that gothic metal is part of the evolution of gothic music

Uhhh

wtf hahaha

the descendants of the goths are still present in india and pak and are known as jats

Good video. Managed to do it with mentioning Mount Tambora or The Villa Diodati!

Why is the art in these videos always so good?!

I love gothic cathedrals so much.

Enjoyed this explanation a lot and got a little buzz when I saw the page of band names. Of those, I still listen to The Mission, Sisters of Mercy and Siouxsie and the Banshees. I was a goth, then merged into punk, then psychobilly and I stayed entrenched in that genre almost until the end of my teens.

Ironic that gothic architecture was considered dark considering one of its well-known features is stained-glass windows.

Wtf did I shed a tear when you mentioned the cybergoths

Well done

Emo era?

I think that goths (in the modern sense) only refers to gloominess.

As someone who has always been into the whole goth thing, I looked up the meaning of my name and it literally means: "bright and shining member of the Goth tribe". Now it all makes perfect sense🤘👻

Man oh man, now we have opium wear

Maybe the ancient Goths look like goths, because of ties to death & religion?

Neat.

Id rather be dead than be a goth

I have seen them slam dance, and punk rock.

Goth is a progressive subculture and always will be 🖤

Well said!

I thought that the britons were a celtic tribe, not a germanic one. Is it a mistake?j Thankiu

Speaking of The Doors' influence, they were actually the first band to be called "gothic rock" in a review in 1967. Some of their songs, like Strange Days, The Crystal Ship, and The End would not sound out of place from a gothic band in the '80s.

The Ostrogothic kings Theodoric and his son Totilla are two of history’s greatest men, change my mind

I am from Qotin but still I am treated in a very bad way by people because of my appearance 😊😢

Ted-ed has proved it has a sense of humour by letting Dan Addams narate the history of goths 😂

goth gameplay vs goth lore:

Its interesting how mirrored the western and eastern hemispheres are

Beauty in darkness pretty sums up goths and gothic culture

Isn't ironic that who make this video literally called: Addams?

Very interesting video! Additionally, I also got the idea where “Romance” gained its name from.

Lover of Big Tiddy Goth GF, like this comment here.

To think I first thought the origin of Goths was based upon fans of vampires

“cybergoth” and “gothabilly” are two words i am utterly flabbergasted at hearing

It was your heart on the line... I really fked it up this time... 👿🗣️

This feels straight out of samurai jack. Who animated this?

I'm not a goth myself but I do find it very cool learning about the history and origins of sub-cultures like these :)
