Katatonia influenced bands

[Lunatic_Fringe]

daylight dies is like new katatonia with growling... brutal sadness =-)

Where can we hear some bits of "easy way out"?

Here are 2 other bands:
- Greyswan, an excellent gothic metal italian band
- Rain Paint, just look at their logo, artwork (and there is a Rapture member in this band): www.mp3.com/rainpaint

www.forestofshadows.com they're more old style, and they have a good cover of Rainroom. however they do the new and old like Opeth, so d/l 'Wish' which is a good mix of both, the mellow parts are excellent even though theres more than a hint of opeth/katatonia rip off.

A pity they haven't got any MP3's online!

well.. my band is influenced by katatonia... sort of the same feeling to it, but we dont sound like them to much... more anathema sound....
listen to us here...

I know that Katatonia are inspired of Tool and A Perfect Circle. :]. Found out that on their homepage.

Nowhere.

And that's good, because they suck.

The new Tool is great indeed!

Katatonia and Anathema are by far my two favourite bands too. Although I obviously love both bands, I wouldn't say they are particularly similar... although the emotions I feel from both are fairly similar.

Crowhead are a band i heard recently who i thought sounded a lot like katatonia...i dont know anything about them though....

edit: ok one of the members was/is (?) in Ragnarok...and you can d/l some mp3s from their (admittedly rather shit) website here.

WOW - This is good stuff! Thanx man!

 

[Forlorn Hope]

Yeah The Loveless is great, but it doesn't sound like Katatonia dude
Anyway, it's the new band of the ex frontman of Saturnus, so it can't be bad

 

[the_dying]

Zeker van? To me it's definately Katatonia style!

You welcome.

 

[khayman]

well you could try sabrina, but 'be warned' that they have a female vocalist.
autumnblaze isn`t that bad either, but they could be better.
and björn`s band, in spiritside dreaming is an extremely good band i whole heartedly recommend, for they have one of the best vocalists around (my opinion).
and for those who haven`t really listened to anathema yet, shoo and buy their latest cd now! you have no idea what you`re missing...
