while i dont really agree with the others you suggest (way way way to specific and kinda pointless), i do wholeheartedly agree with Grimdark.
Grimdark's like tragedy without all the uber-melodrama. when i see tragedy, i go nope!. If i saw a grimdark tag, i'd at least give it a shot.
As an example of grimdark (and indeed the genre namer itself), 40k.
Grimdark is, well, dark and grim but that does not mean it's all depressing and horrible and downer like tragedy is. grimdark can have all sorts of stuff from comedy to romance to parody.
TL;DR: i support Grimdark as a tag as an alternative for dark stories that arent tragedies.
