Can someone give me an example of Depressive Suicidal Doom Metal, if such thing can exist? I'm looking for something so heart-breaking that even A.Morbid would cry and this genre just HAS TO exist.

Spawned by a recent post, can someone explain to me why Moonsorrow is not considered Viking Metal? I don't consider Viking Metal a legit genre, but those that do tell me it's basically Epic Black Metal + Folk Influence + Viking/Norse Lyrics. In my mind that perfectly describes Moonsorrow. I know I shouldn't treat MA genre classifications as law--and I don't--but hey, I'm curious.

Yeah cascadian has enough of noticible sound that I'm happy enough to use it as a synonym big gay nature post black.

is there such thing as nu black metal?

What about Doomgaze? I think some Jesu albums are a good example of it but i can't find anything similar

Is Cyber Metal a real genre? I know that exist the tags Electronic/Industrial Metal as a way to describe that groups who use electronic elements with metal riffs, but... Cyber Metal? Is it a serious term or just another vague term that people to use to be cooler? For example, Neurotech.
In M.A this band from Slovenia is "Symphonic Industrial Metal", of course with that, but then, in the summary of comments about the group we can see perfectly "Considered a pioneer of the Cyber Metal genre".
Then, what´s the point?

I think when people say cyber they are usually narrowing down the industrial elements to EBM, aggrotech and electro-industrial. Though in a grind context, i.e. cybergrind, it's completely different territory.

Mutant pretty much has it on the head. just imagine all the terrible breakdowns from your generic deathcore bands and just slow it down more.

I have heard the term. it was taken from myspace when for genres you could list for your band. it was just on there when you are trying to use doom which they didn't have.

On the Viking topic, I find it interesting that pagan came up, to me Viking is FAR better defined musically than pagan, which as far as I'm concerned is just vaguely woodsy atmoblack which isn't folky enough to be folk/black.

I'm happy enough to use it as a synonym big gay nature post black.

I thought it was a genre of music so heavy that all you can do is headbang while looking at your feet

Especially after admitting liking Wodensthrone. They're so hot right now.

Thanks. I would have asked what shoegaze is (I thought it was a genre of music so heavy that all you can do is headbang while looking at your feet) but without knowing what Explosions in the Sky is a reference to I think I comprehend what you mean.

Got its name because the music is so mellow and calm and slow, people just stare at their feet. Imagine playing really slow, ambient music and then just looking up and around at the crowd. It would kinda be weird.
