Gothic Beauty Magazine Expands Goth Coverage
PORTLAND, Ore., April 17 -- Beginning with issue 25,
currently on newsstands, Gothic Beauty magazine is expanding its coverage
of gothic fashion and music to keep up with the subculture gaining
mainstream relevance. In addition to features on Elizabethan fashion and
makeup, this issue also exposes other facets of pop culture's dark side
with articles on the haunting images of Tim Turner's Ghoulish Gallery, the
2008 Dark Cities Survey, ranking the top 25 goth scenes in America, and a
full color feature with Kynt & Vyxsin, the Amazing Racers who have become
the voice of "goth" in mainstream media. This issue also introduces the
highly anticipated book reviews section, as well as music reviews and
interviews.

Continuing the trend with issue 26, the magazine will be the lens
through which the kaleidoscopic world that has become the goth culture can
be viewed. And with the recent promotion of senior writers Jonathan
Williams and Athena Schaffer to the newly created positions of
Entertainment Editor and Assistant Music Editor, respectively, the next few
issues promise to further explore the many ways goth aesthetics continue to
influence various forms of entertainment.
Since the Fall of 2000, Gothic Beauty has been the premiere source of
fashion and lifestyle information for the goth scene. But as that scene has
become relevant to many aspects of mainstream society, Gothic Beauty is
following that trend by expanding its coverage of music, pop culture and
entertainment while retaining its roots in cutting edge fashion and
aesthetics. Published four times a year, Gothic Beauty is America's largest
gothic publication, distributed nationally at Hot Topic, Borders Books,
Barnes & Noble, Hastings, Waldenbooks, and F.Y.E. stores. For more
