Ya. A lot of what I'd posted I'd actually consider other things: pop, new wave, alternative, industrial, etc. But some of those terms don't hold up as well for a variety of reasons. Alternative was rarely heard on the radio, yet is now in the grocery store. U2 used to be an underground-ish band but is now a megaband. Also, there's no shortage of overlapping Venn diagrams of genres and styles.

Gothic, IMO, is less of a genre or even style and more of an attitude or cultivated mood.

I'd love a /s/ClassicalMusic. I want a /s/MedievalMusic even more for Baroque and Renaissance and of course some silly stuff.

Edit: Just made: /s/ClassicalMusic and I unmodded. I don't expect too much trouble there. We can always call for help. I'm not a moderator-of-people type. I like making banners and CSS for them and updating the info, but they don't all need to be fancy - though I would have liked to have had fun with that one. We could always ask M7 to become mods if needs be. Maybe I'll do the other next week and beautify it. And/or others...
