Phenotype is the fifth and final studio album [3] by Dutch metal band Textures. It was released on February 5, 2016, by Nuclear Blast.

Contents

The album was recorded at the same time as another album, Genotype, which was set to be released in 2017. Both albums were based around the same concept, and thus could be considered parts of a double album. [4] Due to the band's split-up, Genotype was not released. [3]

This is the only album to feature new lead guitarist Joe Tal, who replaced founding member Jochem Jacobs (who continued in his role as producer).
