Melodic Death/Doom

[BeatenToDeath]

So I made this thread a couple days ago and it must have been deleted as I can't find it... I thought I followed the guidelines appropriately enough. If this thread is to be deleted again, please accompany its deletion with a message so I know what the issue is.

Anyhow, hey guys. I'm in search of some new Melodic Death/Doom. My favorite bands are Swallow the Sun, Katatonia, Daylight Dies, Novembers Doom, The 11th Hour, Rapture, Ghost Brigade, etc. Thanks in advance for your help!

The Morningside

Wow, they are motherfucking excellent! I honestly can't believe how much I enjoy this. Thank you.

Also give Woods of Ypres a listen. They are a bit more mellow than some of the bands you mentioned in the OP but I think you might like.

Amorphis.

Their early and later records sound very different, but I think you'd enjoy most of what they put out.

Early (from Tales of the Thousand Lakes):



Late (from Skyforger):

Thanks to everyone for all the great recommendations. Much appreciated!

 

[Exodus Prime]

Check out Saturnus (paradise belongs to you), and if you haven't already, everything by My Dying Bride. Oh, and Funeral.

 

[CF87]

Anathema `The Crestfallen EP.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

I recommend Requiem - Fortissimo by Virgin Black, which is more death/doom-oriented than their other work.

 

[Avigrus]

These are all awesome - some repeats from postings above, but worth re-posting;

The Morningside - The Wind, the Trees and the Shadows of the Past
Draconian - A Rose for the Apocalypse
Doom:VS - Dead Words Speak
October Tide - Rain Without End <--- get this one first
Rapture - Songs for the Withering
Saturnus - Paradise Belongs to You

 

[Knight Of Shadows]

In Mourning if you like Ghost Brigade you'll worship this band

I don't really consider a lot of these death/doom, but hey, try Ceremonium's debut while you're at it.
