Classic Metal and Black Metal are an a like genre becasue they share the drums. True, they're 'a like' but completely different genre's. Surely, we've got cross-over bands, and things. Such as COB. What do you class them as? They've become a mixture of 3-4 genre's, imo.
Basically I'm saying, all genre's share simularity's, they're still different genre's, correct?
Doom is not Death.

Death/doom is separate from pure death metal such as tech-death or brutal/slam death metal is different from pure death. They all fall under the category of death metal, but yes they do obviously differ in some areas. Comparing doom/death to death metal is not even close to comparing "classic" metal to black metal. Classic metal is very dissimilar to black metal in riffing, drumming, vocal styles, song structure, etc. Death/doom differs from death metal in really only the slower riffing and slower drumming(for the most part).
COB are just power metal with harsh vocals, not a mixture of 3 or 4 subgenres of metal.
