Genre-style combos

First Post September 15, 2021 01:03 PM

Inspired by the list made by SilentScream213 of metal genres and styles, I decided to try combining those genres and styles into pairs. Some of them have already existed, and others don't really mix well together and I tried so hard to find the closest songs for them, so please correct me if I get some wrong. I think it would be hard to fit so many YouTube videos into one post, so I made a playlist that can be found here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3XbLaqjDZEKWN7rmZqVcuZ

Avant-garde alternative metal:

Dir En Grey - "Sa Bir" & "Vinushka"

Atmospheric black metal:

Hegemon - "Shape Shifting Void"

Brutal death metal:

Suffocation - "Thrones of Blood"

Crossover drone metal (crossing drone with electronics):

Sunn O))) - "The Gates of Ballard"

Cyber doom metal (gothic/doom with cyber themes):

GrimFaith - "Saint-Demonic Smile or Sex in Heaven"

Depressive deathgrind (deathgrind gone DSBM):
