Anathema's "The Silent Enigma" is Gothic Metal

Anathema's 1995 sophomore album "The Silent Enigma" is generally tagged as a Death Doom Metal release however there's really no death metal to speak of. The arrival of Vincent Cavanagh had seen them transitioning in more of a gothic direction, so much so that I feel the album's primary subgenre is now Gothic Metal so I'd like to see it added as a second subgenre alongside Doom Metal. I'd also encourage people of vote down the Death Doom Metal tag on the release page & to vote up the Doom Metal (Conventional) one.
