they really are pretty clear cut enough. lots of people are just clueless morons.

I know, but it's annoying. I prefer symphonic metal but then people are like "that isn't symphonic!" and I'm like "STOP CONFUSING ME!"

agreed

could you please tell me what some gothic rock bands are, by the way. i mean, i know plenty of gothic metal bands but i'd love to know what gothic rock is.


The Sisters of Mercy


Bauhaus


Switchblade Symphony


Death In June


Tones on Tail


Specimen


Virgin Prunes
Sadly, if you try and find a "goth" music club, they'll likely be playing nothing but aggroterror00ntzcheesecore("EBM" wink with a bunch of people in cyber goggles, vent masks, giant tripp pants, tacky hair extenstions and doing retarded dancing.

Like, how do you know, for example, whether a band is gothic metal, gothic rock, or symphonic metal. People seem to disagree over a lot of bands for those 3. Things should be more clear cut.


I know someone into European goth metal/viking metal/symphonic stuff.

Goth wise I strictly prefer ACTUAL goth rock like The Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, Death In June, Christian Death, etc.

Haha. You're talking to a hardcore Delain/Epica/Imperia/Krypteria/Lacuna Coil/Lunatica/Nightwish/Sirenia/Stream of Passion/Tarja/WT/etc. fan here.

symphonic metal is amazing. It's beautiful and powerful and energetic.


I HATE the Fire & Ice video but the song is great.
Almost everything "symphonic" I've heard is actually just power metal.

I was using symphonic in the way pop culture uses it. dramallama Obviously there's other stuff more worthy of the title.

This is pretty good, though, I'm enjoying it immensely.

I love some good Death Metal every now and then, like Kronos.

I'm too cool to care about what genre something is, except as a vaguely useful way of finding something similar to something I like.

Something.
