Celtic Frost - Genre

Genre

As Celtic Frost changed their sound throughout their career, their exact genre has been a topic of debate. Their earlier music was sometimes classified as thrash metal, black metal and even death metal and their later work as doom metal and gothic metal. With the album Cold Lake they were shown to experiment with glam metal. The level of experimentation on albums such as Into the Pandemonium, lead certain journalists to describe the band's direction as avant-garde metal.

Famous quotes containing the word genre:

    We ignore thriller writers at our peril. Their genre is the political condition. They massage our dreams and magnify our nightmares. If it is true that we always need enemies, then we will always need writers of fiction to encode our fears and fantasies.
    Daniel Easterman (b. 1949)
