| | Gothic metal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Gothic metal is a genre of heavy metal music that originated in the early 1990's in Europe as an outgrowth of doom-death, a subgenre of doom metal. |  | | Gothic Metal bands typically do not write their albums in the form of separate songs; they rather write concept albums in the form of books. |  | | Gothic metal originated in the early 1990's with bands such as Tristania and Therion taking the doom-death sound that had arisen and making romantically-themed music that borrowed from black metal's and death metal's guitar and vocal styles. |

 | | Goth metal bands derive from earlier goth rock bands such as Sisters Of Mercy, with Type O Negative one of the most well-known such bands. |  | | Black Sabbath are, of course, the fathers of metal in general, but their early work concentrated on slow riffing and thus is the primary influence on doom metal bands. |  | | Gothic metal bands tend to write songs with a slightly more orchestral feel to them. |

 | | Metal is in the ears of the listener. |  | | Gothic Metal is very beautiful (to me) musically, but the lyrical content explores the dark emotions of the human mind and death. |  | | If one song is considered metal and the other is not, then is the band a metal band or not? |

| | #16 Reviews [Extreme Metal] |
 | | This album was originally released by Pulverised Records, and later re-released by Listenable Records. |  | | One of the oldest Dutch death metal bands have released their new album. |  | | The music is still gothic metal with sonorous female vocals, guttural growls, warm keyboard textures, strings, and wall-of-sound guitar lines. |

| | The Gothic Milieu (Introvigne) |
 | | Gothic music should not be confused with heavy metal. |  | | Black metal is both musically and culturally less sophisticated than Gothic, but fans may switch from one to another and still remain part of the same Gothic subcultural milieu. |  | | The early albums of the German band Sodom, established in 1983, were black metal, while their later productions could rather be classified as speed metal, a different subgenre. |

| | Doom-metal.com: The Doom-metal FAQ |
 | | Gothic-metal bands are bands that blended Gothic or atmospheric music with Metal, not Gothic music with Doom-Metal. |  | | Throughout the 80s Gothic was dark, depressive music pioneered by bands such as Sisters of Mercy, Fields of the Nephilim and Bauhaus. |  | | The Gothic movement began and gained momentum in response to the Punk movement which was a New Wave development fueled by a romantic desire for beauty. |

| | Gehenna - Gothic Black Metal |
 | | The "gothic" image has been given a bad name recently so it is worth saying that Gehenna apply it in the sense of romanticist pop music with a humorous, self-mocking, moribund worldview. |  | | Solidly ear-friendly riffing and whisper-hoarse vocals bubbling from within the guttural confines of throat digestion, within the context of power chord riffs and the keyboards layering root notes or arpeggiated melodies throughout them, texture a release which is otherwise notable for refining instrumentation to its basic elements of presence. |  | | The first band to successfully meld gothic elements with black metal, Gehenna have continued on to make rigorous melodic black metal. |

| | InternetEd Reviews: Lacrimosa- Fassade |
 | | Lacrimosa uses thick layers of orchestral music to lift their slow, grinding metal songs to new levels. |  | | This album is a very strange one in the rather narrow gothic/doom metal genre. |  | | Overall, you get the feeling that this disc was written more for a symphony than for a guitar and drums based band, much like Therion's Vovin. |

| | Tristania: Atmospheric Gothic Metal |
 | | The dominant sound here is Gothic/Symphonic Metal bringing to mind early Theatre Of Tragedy with slight hints of symphonic blackened metal, but instead of writing their own versions of those bands songs, Tristania take their influences and create something truly unique. |  | | Nothing new or innovative, just a perfect marriage of both Metal and Gothic themes performed by talented musicians with their own personal touch added to the concept. |  | | The sound on this album is huge, with all instruments shining clearly through, especially the drums which sound an awful lot like electronic drum pads were used for this recording, though this is not indicated in the linear notes. |

| | Alternative, Gothic, Industrial, Metal and rock gigs. |
 | | Thrash metal sounds, with jagged, broken rythms and complex song structures create the manic feel that the band displays, and this really is a heavy onslaught for sure - the crowd lap it up. |  | | The songs are delivered with a short, sharp, punky enthusiasm, and indeed many of the chorus chants have a punk melody to them. |  | | Heavy but happy bursts of upbeat punky metal are contrasted by a pleasing female vocal, and with instantly enjoyable melodies and snappy arrangements this is a well decent act. |

| | Finnish Black/Gothic metal - amaderGaan Forum |
 | | The Finnish heavy metal band Sentenced released its debut album, Shadows of the Past, in the early '90s on a small French label; dissatisfied with their somewhat commonplace black-metal sound, they hired bassist/vocalist Taneli Jarva to provide more originality for 1992's North From Here. |  | | POISONBLACK is neither just another gothic metal band hailing from Finland, nor your generic project-band formed in order to kill some time while the main band is taking a break. |  | | The record was more melodic and technically competent and got the band noticed in Sweden; it was followed in 1993 by a four-song EP, The Trooper, the title tune a cover of Iron Maiden's classic. |

| | THE METAL OBSERVER - Review - PARADISE LOST - Gothic |
 | | The guitars already bear some of the characteristic minor-elegies in them, which PARADISE LOST would perfect on the following albums (including "Draconian Times"), Nick Holmes did not even try to sing, but is growling his way through the songs and double-bass-parts loosen up the melancholy. |  | | Who has found the Britons of PARADISE LOST only with their last two, terrifying albums and loves them, should better circle "Gothic" wide, very wide, because this CD does not have anything to do with their new DEPECHE MODE-for-the-poor-sound. |  | | In my opinion "Icon" still is the creative pinnacle of the Gentlemen Holmes, Mackintosh, Aedy and co., but still "Gothic" is one of the most influential albums of Metal, because it defined a complete sub-genre
