	The BNR Metal Pages - Genres (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		One of the more extreme forms of metal, death metal is basically an offshoot of thrash, with less melodic riffs and a low, growly, often almost unintelligible vocal style that at its best (or worst, depending on one's point of view) has been described as "cookie monster vocals".
		The early nineties saw the initial rise of death metal in places such as Florida (Death, Morbid Angel, Deicide, Obituary, and others) and Sweden (At The Gates, Entombed, and others), and remains a dominant form of extreme metal to this day.
		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 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gothic metal is a genre of heavy metal music that originated during the early 1990s in Europe as an outgrowth of doom-death, a subgenre of doom metal.
		Gothic metal is sometimes considered a loose genre in the way it sounds because the genre is defined by its composition of the music and its aesthetics, leaving individual bands to provide their own interpretations.
		Gothic metal tends to take influence from the doom metal, fl metal, and death metal subgenres of Heavy metal for its composition, heavily synthesizing the styles of their melody and rhythm ideas in its guitar work, causing the music to be aggressive and fast paced.

	Symphonic metal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Symphonic metal is both a genre of metal and a name given to several subgenres of other metal genres, and as such, both forms of usage have slightly varying definitions.
		Orchestral metal as a genre (sometimes called opera metal or plainly symphonic metal) is generally the same in the way it sounds between bands, because the genre is pretty typical of itself and the features it uses and easily depicts between itself and other genres.
		Claims that keyboards, female vocals and other gothic metal characteristics are inconsistent with the essence of "true" fl metal has often resulted in confusion between symphonic fl metal and gothic metal bands.

	Death metal - Wikipedia
		Perkara death metal biasanya melibatkan tema yang lebih nihilistik berbanding genre yang lain dan menggunakan metafora yang mengerikan atau "jahat" untuk menggambarkan konsep yang lebih besar.
		Death metal is clearly an outgrowth of heavy metal, but the full story is complex and interesting, and is the subject of some debate among fans and musicians.
		To their credit, early "death metal" bands such as Death did push the format forward, something that would ultimately pay off in a new form of music that was substantially different from their closest forefather, thrash metal.

	The Gothic Milieu (Introvigne)
		Although the term Gothic was created by outsiders, it was quickly accepted by the movement, notwithstanding the fact that the latter largely ignored 18th and 19th century Gothic literature (with the possible exception of Dracula, whose inclusion in the Gothic genre is however disputed by contemporary critics).
		Gothic concentrates on human reactions to particular emotions associated with death, corpses, blood, the macabre, and vampires.
		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.

	Transcending the Mundane: Interview with Ensoph
		We all have in common the passion for the 90’s extreme metal scene, that is our main root: we all have started playing doom and death metal at the beginning of 90’s, and this remains a great influence, even between all the elements that have enriched our sound in the years.
		I think that the music we play can be actually described as extreme avantgarde electro gothic metal: something like the melting point between electro-industrial, extreme metal and the esoteric field, all re-read by our personal sensibility, so intolerant to every kind of artistic limitation and musical standardization.
		We think that our 90’s gothic extreme metal roots are the most important of the elements that compose our music, even if electronics and industrial is becoming always more essential in our sound.

	#16 Reviews [Extreme Metal] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The documentary is not likely to convert outsiders to fl metal, because during its 52 minutes- save the 30 seconds of Mayhem live episodes- it does not show fl metal from any attractive angle (even though the genre had an undeniably thought-provoking element that much of current mainstream lacks).
		Vampiria play good atmospheric metal where many styles and moods are presented (while eclecticism is quite natural in metal music these days, it's harder to find a release where you can find one stable style as opposed to one with contrasting moods).
		The music is very dark, even by the lauded standards of extreme metal, and focuses more on the brutality and alienation of everyday life than the bleak atmosphere of ancient ruin or folklore.

	New Reviews [Extreme Metal] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The extreme repetition owes more to neo-folk bands like Death In June and classic goth rock (why even bother naming the band they draw most of their rhythmic influence from?) than extreme metal, clean chords employed frequently to a crisp airy effect.
		This is a refined 9 song journey to the different ends of the metal spectrum: a combination of a fl metal vocal and death grunts, orchestral keyboards as well delicate piano parts, melodic death, doom metal as well as bay old school thrash riffs.
		This album will be liked by both fans of gothic rock and metal, not truly belonging to any of these styles, but managing to combine the elements of gothic metal, gothic rock, and electronic sounds.

	Gothic Section (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		"Gothic" was alter applied to a style of medieval architecture.
		The term was later applied to a late 18th/early 19th century style of literature, which had a fascination with death and the supernatural.
		I listen all kind of "dark" music, so let it be fl metal, gothic rock, industrial, EBM, electro or classic music.

	Gothic Décor - Enter The Dark Realm - free article courtesy of ArticleCity.com
		Gothic décor is often associated with medieval designs, which is not surprising considering the two are quite similar.
		However the major difference between gothic and medieval, is that gothic décor is usually much darker, and perhaps in a modern sense, a little more "stereotypical".
		The traditional gothic theme is one that consists of dark colors, and is lightly based on the period that existed in Northern Europe between the 12th and 15th century.

	Tristania: Atmospheric Gothic Metal
		Gothic metal doesn’t always translate convincingly in a live setting, and it’s often not the most visually stunning display.
		His vocals are extremely potent and performed with an overwhelming array of emotions, offset by the equally impressive talents of session clean vocalist Osten Bergoy and female vocalist Vibeke Stene, whose delicate yet convincing voice is usually accompanied by an ocean of choirs to create a theatrical element to these vast compositions.
		The dominant sound here is Gothic/Symphonic Metal bringing to mind early Theatre Of Tragedy with slight hints of symphonic flened metal, but instead of writing their own versions of those bands songs, Tristania take their influences and create something truly unique.

	Earache
		During this time, Earache's output was not just limited to Death Metal records but embraced all manner of similarly extreme offshoots, from Industrial-Metal pioneers Godflesh and Pitchshifter, to the sludgy Doom of Cathedral, and laid-back Californians Sleep, one of the earliest Stoner Rock bands.
		These signings were far removed from the Extreme Metal scene Earache was known for and synonymous with, but during this period Welsh act Dub War scored the label 5 UK singles chart hits and for a couple of years were Earache's most succesful act in the UK.
		The global explosion of interest in metal and extreme metal in particular, led to the publication of the book 'Choosing Death' in 2004, in which noted scenester Albert Mudrian admirably detailed the history of the death metal and grindcore scenes, and rightly placed Earache's key role as the central catalyst within it.

		Included in the genre are numerous sub-genres which run the gamut from the extreme almost brutal to the pretty, atmospheric or ethereal.
		The latter category while beautiful is more extreme and may take getting used to but let me tell you that if you start on this path, with the milder styles, you eventually will enjoy these as well.
		In course of time, the music was acquiring widely understood strength and was evolving in the direction of gothic metal, to explode with freshness and charisma in 1997.

	THE METAL OBSERVER - Interview - ANCIENT - Online Oct. 2004
		One of the reasons I think people have lost interest in Black Metal is because of the huge trend that followed the birth of this music in the 90's.
		Luckily things seem to always go in circles and the interest should return, also because Black Metal is a genre that revolutionised the world of extreme metal and played a great part in the history of Metal music.
		It is difficult to produce an extreme Metal album that is clear, warm and natural but at the same time very powerful, big and explosive.

		The music would follow the successful sound of the full release that created a fusion of Dark Metal with Gothic Metal, with the combination of the Doom Metal that was previously created.
		The forboding and melancholic nature of the Dark Metal and the fast paced extreme nature of the Gothic Metal, interspersed with slowed dow moments of romanticed Doom Metal (more of the style of Funeral Doom and Death Doom) to try and create music that is Dark and Sombre, both in a fast and slow way.
		The general lengths and structure of the tracks conform generally to the genre of Doom Metal, being anywhere from 3 minutes to 14 minutes, and can at times follow a verse/chorus structure, or be free flowing.

		While almost all their other releases are very extreme gothic metal, this one, I'll have to say, is romantic fl metal.
		Instead of latching on to the fl metal notion that everything has to be either br00tal and fast or minimalistic, pessimistic, and nihilistic, or quite possibly both (did I forget repetitive?), Cradle of Filth creates an absolutely wonderful oratory, with music that's equally wonderfully voiced.
		If you are a fl metal fan, it's almost obligatory for you to slander them whenever they are mentioned, usually for such reasons as Dani's vocals, overuse of keyboards, or the pervasive female backing vocals.

	Metal Reviews - Metal Coven Webzine - Metal Reviews - Moonspell - Memorial
		"Memorial" is extreme gothic metal, guitar-driven with predominantly harsh vocals and a moderate amount of background keyboards.
		But "Memorial" is not especially symphonic, neither catchy nor memorable, and nowhere near the level of technicality or brutality of far too many death metal bands to mention.
		A rhythmically technical orchestra melded with Meshuggah-esque metal and gothic keyboards, "Proliferation" is almost entirely unlike any metal I have heard, let alone anything I was expecting nine tracks into "Memorial." And from there, Moonspell somehow manage to end things stronger than they began.
