Doom Metal?

[skeptik]

A lot of that 'Old School' sound moved on to Stoner Metal.

Bands in the old vein:

Place Of Skulls (Come on, Victor Griffin of Pentagram fame is the guitarist and songwriter)
Internal Void
The Want
Sourvein (to an extent, though more modern and with harsh vocals)
Doomsword (mixed with uber-epic traditional Metal
Look at the rest of the bands on Southern Lord

a lot of people forget about Slow Horse. Very 70's-ish.

I don't think a lot of people know about them. It's a damn shame.

The early generation doom like Black Sabbath,Cathedral,Trouble,Saint Vitus,Candlemass,Sleep,Solitude Aeturnus is what there is not enough of

No the problem is you don't bother looking. There are plenty of modern bands who hound the old-school sound. You just need to actually take an active peek rather than sitting around on UM posting falsities like this.

No one mentioned early Paradise Lost... 'Gothic' was a masterpiece.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

I don't think anyone mentioned Monolithe yet, they're good epic doom metal.

Exactly. Take a look at Church of Misery, who are currently doing it beter than anyone at the moment.

Not doom but the first 3 Orange Goblin cds have some doom elements. 'Frequencies from Planet Ten' and 'Time Travelling Blues' are great albums. Trippy but still heavy as fuck. The guitarists have heavier tone than most bands. The entire band is great.

I'd say it's stoner,sludge,doom mixed that's heavily influenced by the 70's and Black Sabbath. Heavy in a Cathedral 'The Ethereal Mirror' way, perfect. Just great songs and riffs.

Orange Goblin really know how to fucking rock.

I have their split with Electric Wizard, Orange Goblin are awesome there.

I dont see anyone mentioning Saturnus?!!! Anyone that likes early Anathema should also like them i would think.

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Saturnus has no blues influence so they are not doom duh.

 

[Varg Vikernes]

first 2 katatonia albums

 

[skeptik]

www.doom-metal.com seems more of an apt website for a thread about Doom Metal, The Gays.

 

[kmik]

I hate Saturnus, Slumber, Swallow the Sun and their likes. Hardly even metal and totally unlistenable.
