:List of gothic metal bands

File:Type O Negative in performance (Gods of Metal, 30-06-2007).jpg at the 2007 Gods of Metal festival]]

This is a list of notable gothic metal bands. Gothic metal is a genre of music characterized as a combination of the dark atmosphere of gothic rock with the aggression of heavy metal. The genre originated during the early 1990s in Europe as an outgrowth of death/doom, a fusion of death metal, doom metal, and gothic rock. The music of gothic metal is diverse with bands known to adopt the gothic approach to different styles of heavy metal music. Lyrics are generally melodramatic and dark with inspiration from gothic fiction as well as personal experiences.
