Goth and punk have always been about situating oneself outside of mainstream culture, beyond
Wrote about Taylor Swift calling Reputation “a goth-punk moment:” “Goth and punk have always been about situating oneself outside of mainstream culture, beyond respectability, and squarely opposed to authority and the status quo. Meanwhile, Swift epitomizes all of those things. As even Lansky’s Person of the Year profile notes, “Reputation’s lead single ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ reached No. 1 on the charts” and “the album sold 1.3 million albums in the first week, second only to 1989.” If that isn’t the very definition of mainstream culture, I’m not sure what is.”
