@Phylactery did The Spooky Gloom ever get reissued? I remember years ago Memento Mori in Spain had the rights (or so they said) but I dont think it materialized.

No, not to my knowledge. Shit really needs a reissue as it seems impossible to find at a decent price. It's on Discogs fro £40 plus at the minute.
Since I'm in such a death/doom mood at the minute, what are people's favourite death/doom records or songs?
I'm not much of a fan of the more gothicy Paradise Lost/My Dying Bride stuff personally.

Last One on Earth is a pretty simple go to. The Eternal Darkness comp, Total Darkness is surely worth hearing. I've always been a fan of Moondark - The Shadowpath too. Just big heavy meatiness.
For later stuff, the first two Hooded Menace are monstrous.

Fuck yeah, I love that Moondark as well. That guitar tone and production is absolutely filthy. Not sure I really consider it death/doom though. It’s more like Finnish stuff like Rippikoulu and Purtenance - just slow, dirty death metal.

Most death/doom is just 'slow death metal' isnt it? Rarely does the genre really have that traditional doom metal influence. Black/doom is a lot rarer but seems to be the same way. Not many black metal bands embrace sabbath like Faustcoven.

@HamburgerBoy Apparently, there is a new album that is being worked on.
Bruuuuhhhh
Just listened to this album for the first time in a while and it kicked my ass. The more I listen to this band, the more I prefer them to Testament. At least Gary Holt can still write some good riffs. All hail Zetrodus!

Yeah, it surprised me as well. Pretty much leagues ahead of Testament's new stuff.
I really enjoyed Dark Roots of Earth but even when Exodus had Rob Dukes I still enjoyed a majority of it. Probably the most consistent OG thrash band I've heard so far. I know people will say Overkill but I honestly only like The Years of Decay from that band and I haven't listened to it in years.
