Doom Metal

[ohiogrinder]

It's not unique.

I agree, but let's put that thought aside. its still good music.

 

[Belligerent]

Why agree with the disagreeer?

 

[skeptik]

The vocals are not unique. That's not a knock on the vocalist or the band, but it's just not unique, it's in fact entirely typical for the style. Witchcraft is a great band and everything, but hardly unique.

 

[Belligerent]

To me it's unique cause I'm just getting into this genre.

 

[Manic Ferocity]

Unique isn't really subjective, though. Not that it really matters.

 

[Vilden]

The new Doomsword has been kicking my ass for a while now

I still need to get this dammit, how would you rank it compared to their other albums?

 

[JontRevolting]

It's perhaps their quickest album i think its as good if not better their others but their first album is still unbelievable..if that makes sense,just get it man you'll love it

 

[genocide roach]

so would you guys consider agalloch doom?
~gR~

 

[Krilons Resa]

no

imo, they are one of them bands that fall outside of any lines of genres.

 

[Zephyrus]

I consider them folk/black/doom.

 

[Belligerent]

so would you guys consider agalloch doom?
~gR~

folk/black/ambient and that's all.

 

[ohiogrinder]

a good band, thats what

 

[ohiogrinder]

whats everyone's opinion on Dream Death?

 

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

Dream Death is really some unique and cool stuff. Stylistically, it's early thrash-inspired with trad. doom and slow depressed parts. They don't use too much of either and have a good balance of different styles. Someone at the radio station I intern at wrote "this sucks" or something dumb on a copy of it we have there, so I wrote back "you're a faggot."

 

[ohiogrinder]

lol. well serves him right, I like Dream Death

 

[Krilons Resa]

Dream Death rule. Check out Penance if you havent yet.

 

[Vilden]

Yes indeed, Dream Death is a really good band, and way to overlooked. :|

Worship - Last CD Before Doomsday


If he meant only Black Sabbath type stuff, then "excluding drone" would not be necessary to say.

 

[Vilden]
