Talk:Resist (Within Temptation album)

Genre
I've seen that the genre section on the main infobox is being altered daily, sometimes with realiable references and sometimes not, so I decided to open this section here so we can solve the genre issue once an for all.

I haven't seen any reliable sources labeling the album as Gothic Metal, so I think it might be already discarted, at least for now. The Skinny review labeled the record as Symphonic Metal: https://www.theskinny.co.uk/music/reviews/albums/within-temptation-resist Metal Injection Metal Injection also labeled as Symphonic Metal, but with some regards: http://www.metalinjection.net/reviews/within-temptation-resist The Music called them "Symphonic pop", but I don't even know it that really exists. However, they pointed out EDM and Industrial influences, but not as a whole genre for the album. A lot of other critics pointed out the prominent electronical elements but, as said, just as influences.

So, I think that it should just be labeled there as symphonic metal while we don't have any more references, or also create a footnote for pointing that, although on its basis, it is not a pure SM record and it has several distinct influences - as almost every critic points out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 10mandown (talk • contribs) 22:36, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
 * This is a case of reviewers ridiculously unable to describe music by its sound rather than using the genre label from previous albums, even when the band's genre changed so dramatically over the years. Reputation of "being a X band" replaces actual sound.Beaumain (talk) 10:04, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
