Gothic Metal recommendations

[Personified Hatred]

Can anyone recommend me some good Gothic Metal bands (findable)? Thanks in advance.

 

[Personified Hatred]

Can't anyone recommend me any Gothic Metal band? I thought there were some Gothic Metallers in a more-than-70.000-users forum.

I can't say I really like this band but you could check out Evig Natt. They've got some good songs but gothic metal's never really done anything for me.

I wasn't online but you could've just checked this thread:

I listen to gothic metal/music...just not the female-fronted 'gothic' bands if that's what you're looking for.

Amorphis - Far From The Sun
Charon (second and third albums (The Dying Daylights is essential))
Sentenced (last half of their discography, particularly Frozen, Crimson, and White Light)
Moonspell (they've got a few good songs on each album)
Poisonblack's first album (Escapexstacy)
The Mist and the Morning Dew - Demo 2002
Paradise Lost - Gothic
Mandragora Scream - A Whisper Of Dew

and female-fronted bands: (which I don't consider half as good as anything above mentioned)

Epica
After Forever
Within Temptation
The Gathering



nothing there should be difficult to find unless you use a shitty p2p

Graveworm

erm, they're melodic black metal, nothing gothic metal about them.

(good band though)

they sound a little gothic metal imho

 

[General Zaroff]

old Cradle Of Filth

(i know im going to get some heat for this)

 

[CaGeD iN]

cradle of filth isnt too bad imo dani filth just should die, he can sometimes growl pretty good, but screaming like a little school girl is redundant

emilie autumn
although be careful because her album Opheliac has a lot of industrial stuff in it too
If you want metal-y gothic stuff then listen to her album Unlaced from her duel set Laced/Unlaced. It's purely just violin on the tracks but its really fucking sick how awesome she is at shredding. If you dont mind industrial then go for Opheliac but its kind of girly stuff the songs are about

 

[The Ozzman]

No one has said Katatonia yet?

Last time I checked, The Gathering was a rock band.

Their Goth/Doom material was male fronted, I believe.

Also, Celtic Frost's new album has elements of Goth in it.

lmfao. if that's what he's after, he's going to hate any of the actual 'gothic metal' recommends
