Misaimed Marketing wick cleanup


* ''VideoGame/HellbladeSenuasSacrifice'' was [[MisaimedMarketing poorly marketed]] as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nv76rG7N4A&feature=youtu.be a straightforward Viking-themed hack-and-slash action game]]. While it does have its fair share of brutal combat, it has just as many (if not more) elements of WalkingSimulator and environmental puzzle game, with a heavy focus on psychological horror and an extensive examination of insanity [[ThroughTheEyesOfMadness through the utterly mad protagonist Senua]] and the litany of voices she hears and storm of hallucinations she has to fight off (sometimes literally).

* ''VideoGame/{{Lemmings}}'' was so unlike anything that came before that it still defies easy categorization, although the UsefulNotes/MegaDrive box calls it an "action puzzle" game. The player guides a group of the eponymous lemmings to the goal by giving individuals specific tasks, some of which are temporary, and others which are not. For instance, one lemming might be required to block off a ledge, while another is told to dig diagonally down. The genre, which is fairly limited, is sometimes referred to as "save-em-up".

* ''Literature/ReignOfTheSevenSpellblades'': At its core, the series is very much a TeenDrama about the growth and relationships of students attending a prestigious boarding school and growing into adults, except it's a WizardingSchool in a DarkFantasy setting that has a LovecraftLite underlayer. Furthermore, the MythArc of the series is [[spoiler:the main viewpoint character's {{revenge}} story, which he keeps secret from everyone else in his friend group]].

* Music/KaizersOrchestra. You could, if you had to, classify them as Rock, in its most broad sense. More specifically, depending on the song, you'll find polka, Eastern European folk music, surf rock, gypsy rock, jazz, whatever the hell Maskineri is, and so forth. They've also been described as a "punk rock Tom Waits", and Tom Waits desribed them as "Norwegian storm-trooping tarantellas with savage rhythms and innovative textures". Whatever that means.

* Music/TheBeachBoys/ Music/BrianWilson's legendary unfinished ''Music/{{Smile|TheBeachBoys}}'' album can be described as a Psychedelic Doo-Wop/ Rock Barbershop Quartet recorded in distinct modules. But you should also add Americana to the mix. And several classical influences, from Bach to Stravinsky and Schoenberg. And some Varèse thrown in at good measure as pertaining to tape experiments. And Phil Spector's production methods (although more nuanced than his Wall of Sound) , folk, classical choir arrangements , circus music, impressionist music, jazz, musique concréte (and in the case of Vega-Tables, this is taken literally), the American-centered compositions of Gershwin, baroque pop, Yodelling and ragtime (along many more), all meant to achieve a "Teenage Symphony to God" that sounds like an ever-flowing painting by a Disney cartoon. One should also mention Smiley Smile, the substitute to the aforementioned album, after its infamous cancelation. Attempting to describe its minimalistic miasma of weirdness and near cynical self-deprecation is almost a disservice to it. Songs like Wind Chimes must be heard to be believed (in stereo is the recommended option).

Muse and A 7 X

Added DiffLines:

* Music/{{Muse}} are usually classified under the broad (and rather vague) label of "alternative rock", but ultimately seem to have built their career on the general principle of: "what new genre can we explore ''this'' time?" They went from Music/{{Radiohead}}-style abrasive indie on ''Music/{{Showbiz}}'', to prog-rock, hard rock and symphonic on ''Music/OriginOfSymmetry'' and ''[[Music/AbsolutionAlbum Absolution]]'', to more experimental pop and prog (incorporating such things as brass, funk and electronic music) on ''Music/BlackHolesAndRevelations'', to Music/{{Queen}}-like anthemic hard and orchetral rock on ''[[Music/TheResistanceAlbum The Resistance]]'', to then veering full-on electronic and dubsteb on ''Music/The2ndLaw'', to going back to more classic hard rock on ''Music/{{Drones}}'' (that, despite it being much-touted as a "return to straightforward rock roots" ''still'' managed to include a progressive rock epic, a couple electronic moments, and an acapella cover/rewrite of a classical mass), right into the synthwave-tinged ''Music/SimulationTheory'', and culminating with ''Music/WillOfThePeople'', an actual GenreRoulette mish-mash of all the stuff they'd explored before. Not bad, for a mere "alternative" band.
* Although Music/AvengedSevenfold have always remained in the general sphere of HeavyMetal, they've never really stuck to a single path (with, for instance, ''Music/CityOfEvil'' having plenty of stuff that's very definitively ''not'' metal); and noticeably, their career has been veering into this territory as the years have passed. ''Music/TheStage'' is entirely a progressive metal concept album that's distinctly different from the heavier edge of their other works, and ''Music/LifeIsButADream'', is... uh, [[MindScrew pretty indescribable]], with the band acknowledging [[ArtisticStimulation it was made on drugs]], and ending up as a [[GenreRoulette mix of a bunch of different genres]], including classical music, electronica, seventies-influenced prog, [[Music/TheBeatles Beatles-esque]] baroque pop, and rather heavy ThrashMetal. And Music/KanyeWest.

* Music/{{Blondie}}: Starting off in the PunkRock and GarageRock movement but their discography gradually covered pop, hard rock, new wave disco, rap reggae, calypso, motown and electronica. Most critics either call them a punk band with pop tendencies or a pop band with punk tendencies, but the band would admit that they don't belong to any classification. They not only brought a lot of variety to pop music, but they also challenged punk's ethos of being anti-disco and helped to create new wave in the process.

* ''Series/{{Castle}}'' is a PoliceProcedural romantic dramedy. They also like staging episodes around particular subcultures and bringing in various tropes of particular other genres as well; there's been a vampire episode, an alien abduction episode, a few political-spy thrillers, and so forth. Beckett's mother's arc is also a conspiracy thriller in most of the later episodes.

Bringing this section up to today's standards. Firefly isn't genre-busting. General examples belong in the description.


The Emmy categories "Outstanding Special Class" and "Outstanding New Approaches" are to recognise works of this nature.



!!!'''In General:'''
* They have Emmy categories for this now, listed under "Outstanding Special Class" and "Outstanding New Approaches".



!!!'''By Creator:'''
* Creator/JossWhedon seems to enjoy this trope as evidenced by his past creations: a [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Drama/Comedy about Teenaged Monster Hunters]] and a [[Series/{{Firefly}} Space Western]]!
** SpaceWestern is a fairly common subgenre of science fiction, though. Though, usually not ''so'' western.
** The Buffyverse also has advanced technology, even if it is only a occasional problem, like that demon robot, or the demon cyborg or [[NoodleIncident that robot that the devil made]].
** He did this on purpose with ''Series/{{Dollhouse}}''. Ostensibly a sci-fi show, but dipping into pretty much every genre out there including ''romantic comedy.''
!!!'''By Series:'''


Added DiffLines:

* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' is an action show about hunting monsters, but also has science-fiction elements like the demon robot and demon cyborg, and freely mixed in teenage drama and comedy.

* ''Series/{{Dollhouse}}'' is a SpeculativeFiction show about what could be done with rewriting people's minds at will, but its premise allows it to dip into others genres for an episode, including romantic comedy.
