Doom metal

[Dreadful]

Hello James,

I know you're a big doom fan and all...and I was just wondering what some of your alltime favs. are? Anyone else can respond to this too. Mine would have to be Katatonia - Dance of December Souls...Disembowelment - transendence into the peripheral, Paradise Lost - Gothic and Candlemass - Nightfall...It will probably change though but at the top of my mind, those would be it. Hail doom metal. Good day James and the rest of you.

DUSK - Majestic Thou In Ruin

Sweet, I forgot about Dusk. I'll have to break out my CD's and listen to them again. I remember the discs being quite incredible. They were from the Green Bay, WI USA area back in the day, about 10 years ago. They were just a bunch of kids, but sounded so mature and professional. They were produced by the guys in Bleed (later known as CRAWL), another incredible band from Green Bay.

I used to have a few My Dying Bride albums. They were cool, but I always found myself waiting for the heavy part. I guess I enjoy the brutality of death metal too much for the slower music, but it was quite atmospheric. I also listened to Morgion, a couple years back, they seemed much heavier when I saw them open for Entombed in '92.
