Doom Metal: The altogether most probably slowest music imaginable, more or less invented by BLACK SABBATH. The main characteristic of Doom Metal is the slowness and heaviness of the songs, sometimes put to extremes in terms of speed (or lack thereof). This very often results in an overall sad and melancholic feeling that usually is further enhanced by minor riffs that, too, emanate melancholy. There are basically two forms of Doom, the first being the more "dirty" sound of bands like ST.VITUS or OBSESSED, while the other brings the more epic and melodic side to the fore, with often very melodic and theatrical vocals and at times also more variation in the tempo. Altogether Doom Metal is the maybe most intense sub genre of Metal.
Examples: ST.VITUS, OBSESSED, BLACK SABBATH, CANDLEMASS, SOLITUDE AETERNUS, MEMORY GARDEN.

Gothic Metal: As so often it has been the title of an album that founded a scene: "Gothic" (1991) by British PARADISE LOST was a milestone of heavy, but very sad guitar music. Additionally they had a female singer on board, a future genre defining "element", because in no part of guitar oriented music the female quota is higher than in Gothic Rock/Metal. Generally one could say that Gothic Metal is about sad topics and stuff like dead, longing for death or also romanticism, the musical side is just as widespread, so you can find slow and crushing variations as well as more electronic or a more orchestral and bombastic direction. Especially the latter kind has been popularised by bands like THEATRE OF TRAGEDY or TRISTANIA, the above mentioned attributes plus a female singer in mostly very high pitches. After this direction had almost "died", bands like SIRENIA or AFTER FOREVER gave it a new breath.
Examples: (old) THEATRE OF TRAGEDY, TRISTANIA, SIRENIA, AFTER FOREVER, SENTENCED, TYPE O NEGATIVE.
