Genre[edit]

L'Âme Immortelle is not a darkwave, industrial or gothic group. They're absolutely untypical for these genres. (On their site on last.fm [1] they list themselves as producing Darkwave music. Also just as other genres have progressed so has Darkwave and it no longer sounds exactly as it did in the 1980's. Darkwave should be added to the genres.) Darkwave is an 80s movement and connected to 80s sounds. Goth is mostly associated with Gothic rock. Industrial music is experimental avantgarde music with harsh distorted sounds. L'Âme Immortelle play a more technoid electronic music style with an influence of Alternative Rock/Neue Deutsche Härte. --Ada Kataki (talk) 18:31, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have no knowledge about the band or which genre they fit in, but someone is creating sockpuppets in order to edit war and I cannot allow that. I've semiprotected this article for a month and indefblocked two obvious socks. Theresa Knott | The otter sank 22:13, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please, there was sourse-supported information on genres. Who's putting in his opinion that they're electronic band, which is not supported by observers and critics?

Oh, would you call this and this electronic music? Same genre with Chemical Brothers and Jean-Michel Jarre? I'ld rather say, with Lacrimosa, Umbra et Imago, and Oomph.

No reliable sources. They never were a darkwave or industrial music group. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.122.30.162 (talk) 18:35, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • No, there's no reliable sources you have provided to label them electronic band. I provided some, you did not.

And, as far if you didn't knew, Neue Deutsche Härte is closely related to Industrial. Thus, keeping this genre you agree they play industrial kind of music. Garret Beaumain (talk) 20:55, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Neue Deutsche Härte is simply German hardrock and metal music with keyboards, nothing more. The industrial music influence is very small. It's a little Laibach influence (Rammstein). The largest influence came from Oomph!. I know that, because I'm German. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.122.41.31 (talk) 09:32, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Linx for genres[edit]

So as far, L'Ame Immortele was labelled as....

  1. Darkwave [5][6][7][8]
  2. Industrial [9][10][11][12]
  3. Electro-goth [13][14]
  4. Gothic metal [15][16]

Enough sources for each of them, with some of them interlap in categorizing the band in two or three subcategories. These are the most common genres applied to them. If you want do debate it - add at least as many links.Garret Beaumain (talk) 14:06, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Jesus, have you shit in your ears? There is neither Industrial metal nor Gothic metal. All these fucking web sources are useless crap. Today, L'âme Immortelle plays POP-ROCK/SYNTH-ROCK, nothing more.

"Industrial" Umbrella Term[edit]

I don't think that it is appropriate to use such an umbrella term to describe the artist, especially considering that there are more applicable artists for the "industrial" term. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jotsko (talkcontribs) 00:35, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Protection[edit]

We need a protection for L'Âme Immortelle page. Its genre field is consistently attacked.Garret Beaumain (talk) 21:26, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Chontamenti, you are a grotesque illustration of Genre Warrior. Plese read Wikipedia:Verifiability guideline which you appear to be unfamiliar with. Wikipedia is not about what one believes to be truth, it is about what is generally accepted about topic. You're free to add genres if you have sources (magazines, reviews, interviews) supporting your claim. --Garret Beaumain (talk) 15:36, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The band has nothing to do with Industrial music or Dark Wave. --Chontamenti (talk) 18:36, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia has nothing to do with your opinion. Wikipedia is about sources, references and media reviews. If you continue your edit war, I will have to appeal to administration.--Garret Beaumain (talk) 19:18, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sources? Show me the source for the existence of a genre called Electro-Goth... This is a neologism and absolutely unencyclopedic. --Chontamenti (talk) 09:36, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
