But what makes it unique enough to count it as a separate entity? There's already so much diversity within the scene, what line was drawn with tropicult?

I'm gonna add more to this, but for now:

First scare-mongering news report about how Witch House is "The new drug fueled satanic teenage murder cult...will YOUR children be next!?!?"
First anti-Witch House Christian propaganda

Conversely, something which I hope to never see:
First band to mix Witch House with Metalcore/Screamo.

1) they gave it a name
2) they gave it a fashion style
3) it has a strong identity
4) they are actually PUSHING for this strong identity

It's pretty much all you need to count as a subgenre - there's about 5-6 artists doing it atm.

Really ? Who ?

lol tropicult

Off the top of my head it's just Myrrh Ka Ba, Fire for effect/ultrademon and Zombelle, actually :s ... maybe more to come. Also, actual name is Seapunk. I had a brainfart.

Other than that - I've been informed that Aural Sects have made a first by producing the first ever Witch House Podcast. That box was ticked before it was even mentioned...
