Surprisingly interesting and well researched.

Is The Cure goth? Who else? What’s the difference between goth and post punk?
That's right, lo siento pal.
Summary - Niko plays a huge role, and this is the prime reason I thought you would like. Goth and post-punk are more offshoots of Velvet than punk, even though there is more seeming evolution from punk into bands like Joy Division, Siouxsie, Bauhaus, etc. In particular, the video describes how Niko sort of invented the goth-girl ethos from scratch when she died her hair red and made The Marble Index.
Certainly she was a product of her time and culture...but was used as a lever for 'goth'.

Who else is goth?
They touch on a usual suspects list culminating in the MCR Vamp Wknd type acts, but it doesn't get into the line between kind of overt goth like Skinny Puppy and implied goth like NiN.
Goth v post punk...
Post punk they define as those groups that took punk in a new direction (Clash, Gang of Four, etc) and Goth as a post post punk. Somehow.
