Of course, my heart will always be sold first to North Europe's epic metal. <3
From what I've heard tho, a lot of people don't consider any Visual Kei to be considered 'gothic'. Can't see why, how do they define gothic.
okay, that was a little ramble-ly....

Most of it isn't, but I deffinatly would call some of D'espairs Ray's songs, and maybe Silver Ash goth in their sound.
Those are my favorites, but, in addition to the ones you mentioned, Alice Nine, Gazette, Deathgaze, Death Pool, Madeth Gray'll, Blam Honey, it goes on and on.
I'm not a huge fan or L'arc or Gackt though. X is up there with my favorites, and I've gotten into Glay a bit since I got one of their CD's.
