Other doom/gothic bands?

[A Journeys End]

Anyone know of any obscure or unsigned epic doom or gothic/doom bands? I've always been a sucker for this style, and would like to check out other bands as well as possibly sign some. I'll have my first release out this month, a epic/gothic doom band from Norway (some of you may already know them), you can check it out here if interested:

Tracklist, samples, and all that good stuff is available.

Again, your recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hello!!!

Hey A_Journey's_End,

Thanks for sharing the music of "Ashes To Ashes"...Gothic/Doom Metal is one of my favorite genres and there's too much wickedly beautiful music and talented bands out there that deserve the opportunity to progress.

You are probably already familiar with these bands, but I think they are quite nice for the gloom, doom or dark romanticism ( some may have Black Metal-esque influences in their vocals, but I love that too):

After Forever (Netherlands)
Annatar (Netherlands)
Celestial Crown (Estonia, unsigned)
Penumbra (France)
Gardens Of Gehenna (Germany)
Embers Left (Finland, more H.I.M-ish though, unsurprisingly. Some of those Finnish wear their broken hearts on their sleeves )

Hopefully that helped a little bit.

I'll list more as they come to mind...right now I have to go enjoy the night air, friends and vodka

If you haven't already heard them...I reccomend 'For My Pain'

My friend has recently started a UK site for them and it is coming on really well. Check them out in the Multimedia section, if you like them..post on the board there!! We could do with some more backing

Novembers Doom anyone?

 

[darkcinema27]

do you like doom metal? Go... go to -> www.draconian.se

you are missing out good stuff. I find this band to be the most true to doom ever. Their songs are just depressing and meaningful. Oh, and also sounds wonderful.

If it's gothic/doom you want, I would suggest Mourning Beloveth, Trail of Tears, Orphanage, and I strongly second the Novembers Doom suggestion.
