What Genre Would You Class Katatonia As?

[L0bster]

old: doomy metal, harsh vox
new: guitarbased, gloomy, rock, several influences, like goth and american alternative rock (tool style)

my five cents.

Weintraubenmetal!

 

[Damnation03]

Good question .. I don't know just great music !

 

[Loreley]

no genre for Katatonia, they have its own rock/metalgenre!!! 'cause their music can not place in a certain genre/place/stream

Why does everything have to be classified?

 

[Soul Conspiracy]

Classification is unnavoidable. People do go a bit mad with it though.

I would be happy with just a few broad fields just so I knew what bands I would probably like, isn't that the purpose of giving everything a label?

I'd Say Dark Gloomy Atmospheric Metal

 

[MadTinus]

I'd say melancholic rock/metal.

 

[kambouris]

for me they belong in the "one of my 2 or 3 favourite bands of all time".hehehehehe!!!!!!!!
