Samael's "Passage" isn't black metal
Samael's "Passage" is commonly mistagged in my opinion. I don't think it qualifies as either an industrial metal release or a black metal one, despite it currently residing in both The Sphere & The North. There's a definite Gothic Metal influence that not many people seem to mention too but for me the only consistent element is the symphonic one so I'd go with Symphonic Metal as the sole primary subgenre with Industrial Metal, Symphonic Black Metal & Gothic Metal being merely secondary influences. Soooo.... there's a lot to discuss here & I'd like to tackle several topics in this order:
1. I'd like "Passage" removed from The North as it's not a black metal release in my opinion.
2. I'd like to see Symphonic Metal added to the release.
3. If those two votes leave us with an outcome where there is alternative genre then I'd like to see this release removed from The Sphere.
This release has been added to the Hall of Judgement.
