I've read one post in this entire thread where a couple non-doom bands were mixed with some stoner/doom bands. Other than that, I've agreed with everyone's recommendations. Pretty much everyone who has replied has some great doom suggestions. Yours tend to the doomdeath/funeral doom side, but it's still doom. What's your problem?

just whatever you listen too in doom, stay away from eyehategod because they are one of the shitttiest bands ever.

Fuck you man. And they aren't exactly doom. They have doom influences but I wouldn't call them doom.
 
Seriously lovely thread. Great to see so many doomheads around!

Everyone should check out the band Esoteric and i'm not sure if Shape of Despair has been mentioned yet... Also check out Burning Witch (Wicked!) and Thorr's Hammer (I've heard very little by them but what i have heard was ACE!)

Another band to check out is Dusk ....but be aware for there are several Dusk's around .... the one i'm talking about is the same that released 'Mourning resurrect' and the mini cd 'Majestic Thou in Ruin' ....good shit!

Now if you're interested in more melodic doom like old Katatonia, early Anathema and MDB then check out Saturnus, Forest of Shadows , and Poema Arcanus
 
Indeed. Good shit.

Also check out the band "Cryptal Darkness" ...they're from Australia just like you heh. They're (IMO) reeeeeeally good melodic doom metal. In face Martin Powell (former MDB, now in COF) used to play Violin for them.
 
This is a hrad one because to me Khanate, Burning Witch, abd Spaceboy aren't doom. They are crazy as hell bands. Southern Lord does indeed rule.

Here's my list (like anyone cares :)

- sons of OTIS (space doom)
- Thee Plaque of Gentleman
- Candlemass
- Greenhouse Effect
- early Cathedral - Endtyme \m/
- Slow Horse (melodic doom)
- Penance

And if you really want to consider Khanate doom than the entire Southern Lord roster for certain. I'll add Dot(.) and HC Minds. Both bands you can check out on mp3.com

cheers!
 
Haven't really read this thread carefully, so most of these bands will probably already have been mentioned, but if so, consider that an added reason to check 'em out!

My Dying Bride
Anathema
(early) Paradise Lost
Evoken
Avrigus
The 3rd And The Mortal
Behemoth
Grief
13
Cathedral
Beaten Back To Pure
Sourvein
Katatonia
Burning Witch
Khanate
Earth (make sure it's the band who did 'Seven Angels', there are several)
Sunn 0)))
Teeth Of Lions Rule The Divine (named after an Earth track)
Iron Monkey (not sure if anyone else would consider them doom though...)

EDIT : I can't believe I forgot these...

Candlemass
Weedeater
Buzz.oven
Electric Wizard

To be overrated they'd have to be appreciated by a wider audience first. Which they aren't (hint hint). Besides, there is exactly ONE flute solo on their debut, the one in "Reaching Happiness, Touching Pain". I'm not counting "Picture of Beauty and Innocence" here, since it's only an intro. I can understand your opinion about Lee Dorrian though, he's surely not your average singer.
Well, it's your loss if you don't like them.
