Genre

Gothic Metal

Victorian mourning, velvet textures, cathedral silhouettes.

Gothic metal pairs doom metal's pace with 1980s goth rock's romanticism — cathedral reverb, cleanly-sung male-and-female duets, minor-key keyboard beds. Paradise Lost's Gothic (1991) gave the genre its name; Type O Negative gave it a mainstream face. The 2000s Dutch wave (Within Temptation, The Gathering) bled into symphonic metal.
