What is Cybergoth?
1.
A person who listens to an extreme type of electronic music known as 'Noise'. Noise consits of different types of static laced together to create some form of structure. Noise can be classed as 'Anti-Music'. May probably also listen to 'Powernoize/Noize'. Powernoize is using the same concept of static, yet making it harsher and with a techno drum beat/a heavy drum beat of some kind. It can have a sound reminisiant of Harsh EBM (A type of Industrial). Cybergoths also may listen to a type of music known as 'Futurepop'. Futurepop is quite often a light form of EBM. (It retains it's 'dark' edge, whilst being light.)
A Cybergoth dresses in a way associated with the future or to concepts of what a 'Cyberpunk' may look like. A cybergoth usually has hair extentions (jokingly given the name of 'The Gothic Pineapple' due to the way the hair is worn) and will often wear Goggles of some kind (similar to that of a Rivethead). Cybergoths seem to have a liking for neon and clashing colours. Some also wear LED lights on their clothing or in their hair. Quite often they wear big big shoes.
Some have described Cybergoths as a mixture of Rivetheads, Ravers and Goths. Cybergoths will most certianly listen to music from one, if not all of the other mentioned subcultures.
Ahh! The noise that Cybergoth is playing is annoying me! Get out the Skinny Puppy and blast her with it!

Only similar to goth in name. This is most likely because both subcultures developed from the same scene but have since gone their separate ways.
Cybergoths love to rave, have a fascination with glowsticks and all uv - glowing objects. Tend to wear alot of UV reactive clothing, main brands being cyberdog, spank, plastik wrap etc. Hairstyles are generally pretty extreme with bright colour dreadlocks and mohawks being the most common. Wear cybergoggles on forehead, generally so that your hairfalls don't look really odd! Huuge platform boots!
Listen to EBM, Trance, Techno etc style dancy bands including combichrist, Ayria, Suicide Commando, candy corp, the list goes on.
Drugwise, some do them, alot don't. Don't believe the stereotypes you hear.
General love of partying/raving and dancing a must. Generally confident and not afraid to be how they want.
Myself - Lime Green UV and black dreadlocks, biohazard cybergoggles, reflective red sunglasses, lime green uv cyberdog t shirt, Mercy urban camo bondage pants, New Rocks, and covered in uv reactive body paint with a glowstick in each hand =] now that be a CyberGoth!
