There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

There still are old-school goths in major cities. The LA industrial (and other darker genres) scene has quite a few people who are at least in their fifties, rocking old school black lacy dresses and suits. And often you can still hear Bauhaus... At least last time I was in LA, 2006.
This is the most obscure pop culture reference I could come up with.
