Top 10 Gothic Metal Bands

[HelenaMalina]

@AsiDie888 I really think that is subjetive...I mean, that´s YOUR opinion, not a law, other people think that the creator of Gothic music is Bauhaus, another claim that there´s no such thing as Gothic Metal...so...who is right and who is wrong? I think the most stupid thing you can say is call another people dumb just because don´t think the same as you.

[phatboyjim1967]

I have not heard Umbra et Imago before, will have to look them up, I have been listening & playing Gothic music since the early 80's

I dont want to hijack this page, but if you go to my page you can follow links to an online radio station that I work for, and do a PROPER gothic show, featuring most of the bands listed

MANNUUUE3LLL made me laff saying Type O are not goth, well he better go dig Pete up and justify that comment lol Paradise Lost No.1 ! the original & best

[Silvanas123]

Mortal Love?!?!?!?! Best gothic metal band ever!

[PoisonKisses333]

I'm so glad you included bands like Moonspell and Type O Negative (my favorite) because I get tired of all the videos with only female-fronted bands. Although I like a lot of those bands, it's good to finally hear goth metal groups with male vocals. Great videos!!! ;)

[katsand0gs]

Lacrimosa FTW!

[Lockmuzic]

type o forever

[chandygarcia]

Great Vid. Nice songs!

[yab101185]

Does anyone know any interesting goth metal forums/blogs in Canada or North America by any chance? Thanks!

[MANNUUUE3LLL]

MUY BUENAS ROLAS LAS DE MOONSPELL Y TYPE 0 NEGATIVE PERO TYPE 0 NEGATIVE NO GOTH ES DOOM METAL

[markushor]

paradise lost number 1 forever

[peopeo35]

im agree with the choice of paradise lost,theatre of tragedy and tristania...the others bands im think they're not gothic doom metal

[jpjp006]

NAIFIFAISFAIHAFSIHF

[darkhads4]

exelente conteo a la verga los poser

[JLYoko]

Type O Negative should be way higher on the list, if not #1

[Andrusism]

@JLYoko Im agree

[ZATANCLAUS]

@JLYoko I'm agree too

[pequegnodemonio]

TYPE O NEGATIVE! missss the band....

[ishafoxyfox]

Thank you for not adding him :3

[crimsontiderdotcom]

Good job. I like that you added beseech

[Luephilly]

Lacrimas Profundere should be in this video!!!

[FreakyJP]

@Luephilly

They're in the 2nd video, which covers nr 20 - 11

[chambreair]

toujours les mêmes, c'est lassant

[KorruptedCell]

Umbra Et Imago needs to be #1 :D

[chandygarcia]

Do you know that there is a vampiric metal bands??..

lol. there is.. go surf for em!

[pepetuca1]

lacrimosa is the best band of gothic metal

lacrimosa 4 ever

i subscribe

[NickTheGreek4umyMILF]

4:44 so sexy lady!!!!!!

[EpicFail345]

nice list but i must say that type o negative deserves to be where tiamat is

[frightnight78]

Freaky JP, are you a fucken stupid retardo!!! Type o should have been number 1. They are the gods of this genre! No one did it better then them. All of these bands are cool and all but all of their licks youve heard over and over again. You need to think over your list buddy!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheUnseen4]

PARADISE LOST is the no. 1...they deserve it.great band and great songs

[megamanthehitman]

TYPE O NEGATIVE FTW

[Johnyandtheghouls]

this gets a thumbs up.i was looking for REAL goth metal bands.thank you.i was getting tired of seeing HIM

[riveracollazo]

TON is not #1? wtf?

[omslemming]

can i just say to the uploader people like you really piss me off? who the hell are you to say whats goth and what isnt? whats goth to you may not be to someone else and the other way round, its people like you, eitist fucks who have to put labels on everything and slag off anyone who likes a different kind of music to you who just make me laugh so hard, your just as bad as the sheep following there labels with chart pop music etc you do the same with metal....

[LOLIZAMBARD]

LACRIMOSA must be THE NUMBER 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[snajamh]

This is probably the only video on youtube that actually has Gothic Metal bands

I'm sick of people (posers) putting bands like Within Temptation, Nightwish etc under gothic metal top 10s

[amaruinf3]

@snajamh nightwish its not goth, i agree but they are good.

[CelestialObscurity]

Can anyone recommend any bands similar to Charon, Sentenced, Poisonblack etc. Basically, a really good male-fronted gothic metal band

[FreakyJP]

Those bands aren't gothic metal, they're Suomi metal (or love metal) like HIM. If you want real gothic metal bands, just check these 2 videos (part 1 & 2) and use lastfm to find more

[CelestialObscurity]

@FreakyJP In that case, I hate gothic metal, and enjoy "Suomi Metal" hahaha.

[omslemming]

@FreakyJP suomi metal? how many labels do you people want? what a stupid thing to say never even heard of it lol,

[theonescaredcat]

@FreakyJP HIM IS THE BEST!!!!!

[FreakyJP]

@theonescaredcat

HIM = Suomi or Love metal :)

[DarthBleh]

@CelestialObscurity

Yes, they are gothic metal bands, just that they are finnish, nothing like HIM, which is alternative rock/metal. You should register in metal-archives and ask.

[KatyKazoo13]

:P...

[4EverLacrimosa]

Lacrimosa number 1!!!:X:X:X:X:X:X

[yab101185]

@4EverLacrimosa Agreed! They have some great stuff that I'm just getting in to now! Do you know any interesting goth metal forums/blogs in Canada or North America by any chance? Thanks!

[FreakyJP]

Part 2 is now uploaded!

[aruum92]

In my opinion:

2 Type o negative

1 Lacrimosa

[itil002]

good.........

[FreakyJP]

Hm, I wouldn't say FF is doom metal. Something like Empyrium - Ode to melancholy is doom metal, and FF isn't really comparable to that.

And I'm working on a 2nd list, a 11-20 if you want, and also a gothic rock list (since most ppl still don't know what goth rock is)

[Takaseshi]

Type O Negative is the best in my opinion..

[machineguns0]

falta the gathering

[TheHeavy666Metal]

Moonspell is badass

[Straynger]

Type O seriously deserves #2.

[grfxejk]

good list - better than most people's Ive seen. Bonus points for Vision Bleak and Lacrimosa.

Generally I'd rank ToT lower but that song fits the list. I would've snuck in a song from Silentium instead :-)

[RAmonJoJoJo]

Havayoth > All...

[Volfganus]

En mi opinion Lacrimosa debe de estar en un lugar mejor, ya que ninguna de las bandas del lugar 3, 2, 1 llegan a su talla

[LovelyDivaof2012]

I like your list! It better than the other lists since you didn't include Within Temptation, Epica, or After Forever. Keep up with the good work : )

[FreakyJP]

Argh, lol, you're right, it's Vampiria from the Wolfheart cd :)

[dianayhg]

how is call the songs?

[FreakyJP]

check More Info, I added the names

[dianayhg]

como se llaman las canciones?

[FreakyJP]

Hi, could you ask your question in English? I don't understand Spanish/Italian :)

[TruzziSlayer]

@FreakyJP What are song's titles?

I'm studing foreign languages ^_^

[FreakyJP]

The song titles are in the info box on the right

[TruzziSlayer]

@FreakyJP El nombre de las canciones se encuentra en el box a la derecha
