Doom Metal is a new genre for me. I'm slowly getting into it. I like Black Sabbath's Paranoid album, particularly War Pigs, Paranoid, Iron Man, and Electric Funeral. I like what little Candlemass I heard. I didn't really like Pentagram. I kind of liked Electric Wizard and Kyuss. But I'm very limited to what I like and know in Doom. Perhaps Cathedral would be nice for me? Anymore?

 

[Zephyrus]

Check out Lamented Souls.

 

[J.]

Cathedral's vocals leave a bit to be desired. Try Solstice and Reverend Bizarre

 

[BloodSword]

Check out--Pantheist, The Wandering Midget, Opaque Lucidity, Howling Void and Ataraxie.

You should definitely get Sabbath's Master of Reality. Better than Paranoid, in my opinion.

Pagan Altar
While Heaven Wept (these guys don't really sound like traditional doom; they have a very melodic, epic sound, and go for chord-layering rather than riffs, with really clean, soaring vocals)

 

[Ross]

Yeah, I must admit I enjoy Electric Wizard quite a bit. Dopethrone is pretty close to a masterpiece.

one of the very few Doom metal bands i enjoy

 

[Belligerent]

have yet to give electric wizard a listen, what would you guys recommend?

None

Definitely better than Paranoid but Volume 4 is better than all of them.

 

[no country for old wainds]

vol 4 would be the best sabbath without the filler, s/t just wins out for me otherwise

 

[mutantllama]

Black Sabbath ftw

 

[XSASweet]

My Dying Bride is awesome, but I only have Songs Of Darkness, Words Of Light and The Angel And The Dark River. What are the other good ones?

 

[Vilden]

'As the Flower Withers' is the only Full Length of theirs that is REALLY good (and it is fucking amazing).

there's no filler in vol. 4

 

[no country for old wainds]

i knew some dickhead would say that

I've recently discovered Catacombs - 'In the Depths of R'lyeh' and its one and a half awesome to say the least.

Like Gods of the Sun has been my favourite since it came out, though they haven't really produced anything that's less than interesting, to be honest. LGOTS (as no-one in particular abbreviates it) has super-chunky riffage combined with weeping-into-a-lace-hanky maudlin moments.

Aside from that, The Dreadful Hours is by far the best of their more modern output.

Someone at my job kept recommending me this band. I may actually check this out later tonight since this is the first time I've heard anyone else actually mention it.
