What genre would you call this band?

Question

Wikipedia (which I NEVER trust) says Black Metal/Avant-Garde. Encyclopedia Metallum says Doom / Death / Classical.

Here's 3 songs, so you can hear the difference.

"Der Kinderzar" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCeAUtC0fGA

"Schaukelkind" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_ye-zwrkcI

"2 Millionen Ruble" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-mGcccWsOs

Hear the difference? Would that fall under avant-garde? I'm trying to fix my iTunes library information .....

Answer 1

Imho... Folk Metal

Answer 2

I would say... Experimental Doom or even Goth. But that's just an opinion...

I think Avant-garde would be a good guess too... but hey, I'm pretty bad with genres!!!

Answer 3

You can argue that they're goth, especially without being super hard, but usually that's either related to new wave or with the more recent stuff, electro rock.

Since it sounds like traditional, European folk music, with some guitars, I would have to go with folk metal.
