I need some Doom recommendations

[i aint play this]

...but Esoteric's vocals are fucking thunderous!!!!!!!!

 

[nizzon]

I have "Slow Transcending Agony" by this band and it is AMAZING. The track "L'ateraxie" pretty much dominates ridiculously.

I know!!!
That track is so fucking heavy!

I was actually thinking about Funeral Hymn though, but L'ataraxie is awesome aswell.

So have you heard Necare then? Overlooked band. Ruin is so amazing. I was hoping they would release another album soon but i just saw that the band has split up.

 

[Tubbs]

Hmm, never heard of em.

Are you talking to the op or me? :supermassconfusion:

Funeral Saturnus Funeral Celestiial Funeral Asunder Funeral Mournful Congregation Funeral Solitude Aeturnus Funeral dISEMBOWELMENT Funeral Early Anathema Funeral Agalloch Funeral

I'd also like to mention Funeral.

 

[hibernal_dream]

I tried some Esoteric today. Hated every second of it. The growl is just a gurgleburp. It was so annoying.

It may not be evident to a Porcupine Tree fan, but good music often takes more than one listen to appreciate.

Ahab. Moby Dick inspired funeral doom. They are a bit slow, but the atmosphere goes well with the story.

plus boris. you might like some post metal like cult of luna, isis, pelican, etc.

 

[Tubbs]

I was talking to you.

0h 0k. I'll check them out.

 

[Demilich]

Great Coven - Viaticum is a pretty impressive album of epic doom metal.

 

[Don Corleone]

I already mentioned them in post 17.

Very, very obscure? Well... They do mix other styles with the doom style, but I don't know if they're THAT obscure... Everything is relative I guess. Good band non the less.

yeah i couldnt find a better word to describe them. i guess they came out kinda wrong. should i have said "eccentric" maybe? i mean this band utilizes so many different things from different genres...one moment im listening to proper doom death and a rock n roll guitar solo in another. especially the forest of equilibrium album is really obscure in that sense.

 

[Godhead59]

I'm listening to The Morning Never Came by Swallow the Sun.
Quite impressed.

 

[in_absentia]

Thanks, I'll try it out.

And yes, this album just kicked my ass. I like his growling, often sounds to me like Mike's early growls only without the echo.

 

[nizzon]

They are awesome yes.
Ghosts of Loss is my favourite, took me a while to get into it but but then it just grew like hell on me.

Wow, some nice recommendations there Illnath. Thanx!
Especially The Fall Of Every Season and Keen of The Crow sounds very, very good.

Good! They have a new album out called "Hope", it's amazing. Anyway, you can't go wrong with any of their albums.

 

[BloodSword]

"Morning never Came" is absolutely an excellent album. What stands our for me is the beautiful guitar work and melodies. That's the strongest point of the album. The growls are good, they just get a little monotenous after awhile.
