This is what kids call goth now?

Goth used to be all Satan and death and sometimes kittens.

Is it all kittens now?

Goth is now just what the E-Girls with black lipstick call themselves. Gone are the days of Bauhaus, true Goth is with Bela Lugosi now.

Same happened to punk, just 20yr ago. And it'll happen to your subgenre!

pretty sure goth died to EDM in the 90's. it was a weird transition, too. from somber to dark rave, and it happened really fast. probably in large part due to the matrix movies and hot topic.

Didn't Trent Rezner start producing electronic music/become a DJ?

Reznor does make movie soundtracks and instrumental albums (Ghosts I-VI) but he still also makes "typical" Nine Inch Nails music. Here's some examples from 2016-2018: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JSSCKFgRFM
