The BBC speaks to some self-styled "goth" kids in Norfolk; complete with photos. (via caycos)

Josh, also known as Shadow Mercy, Jessica, who calls herself Misery Whispers and Anton who is known as Lord Mercy, are all Goths and 12-years-old.

I listen to Marilyn Manson, Slipknot, Green Day, Good Charlotte and other sorts of punk metal or gothic rock. I like to do magic spells and to look at runes books. ... My advice to people who want to become a Goth is don't be too cocky.

("Don't be too cocky"? What's the bloody point of it then?)

Meanwhile, the comments section at the bottom yields a bounteous harvest of pure comedy gold.
