I think it is stupid giving it another name, isn't a genre based on the sound instead of the lyrics :rolleyes:

The defination of genre is a grouping of items based on socially accepted conventions.. so lyrical content is fine

Such groupings such as Viking Metal or Ballad Rock exist by lyrical content!!

Ironically i had a similar discussion to this a few days back!

actually most people even say Amon Amarth and Unleashed are not Viking Metal, coz they aren't black metal, with viking lyrics and musical influences :rolleyes:

I honestly don't care about what is or isn't black metal/viking metal/whatever other subgenres you could think of :rolleyes:
don't even care what's considered metal or not, I just listen to what I like and that's good enough for me.
