recommend me an album similar to Electric Wizard - Dopethrone

[Ellestin]

Has anyone here checked this?

I'm curious about this band's evolution from dark/death metal to stoner doom...

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

Runemagick fucking ownz. kthx.

 

[Demilich]

Jerusalem and Dopesmoker are different versions of the same song.

Holy Mountain is some damn good Sabbath worship.

OM - Variations on a Theme is similar in style to Jerusalem/Dopesmoker, but wish shorter songs (i.e. 10-15 min. instead of an hour), no guitars (JUST HUGE LOW END RUMBLING BASS RIFFS!) and it's Chris Haikus and Al Cisneros (sp?) the 2 remaining members of Sleep after Matt Pike left and formed High on Fire. Do they need a guitarist? nah..

Runemagick went stoner? When did that happen?!!

 

[lizard]

since it became trendy, and therefore perhaps profitable??

 

[Chromatose]

What's the release date for the new OM?

anyone? bueller?

I'm not exactly sure when and why the stoner elements began to show through because I've never been too crazy about the former albums, but I'm told this new one is stoner all the way, and from the track I heard most excellent at that.

 

[Demilich]

Good, I'm not the only one who didn't get much out of the older Runemagick albums. I'll give them another try sometime, but I just don't remember them being anything special.

 

[grazim]

What's the release date for the new OM?

They've got a split 10" with Current 93 coming out in May.

I know

but I haven't seen any dates yet for "Conference of Birds," although I've heard it's finished, and that mp3s are floating around..

 

[NAD]

I still don't like Reverrend Bizarre.

Just thought I'd toss that out there.

 

[neal]

ah man, The Wandering Jew is total fuckin

 

[Demilich]

overrated doom band if I've ever heard one. still good, but NOT anywhere near the best

no

it's DOOM

doom is different

DOOM

 

[NAD]

Main difference is you can say DOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!! in a spooky voice which sounds cool and if you try the same with STOOOOOOOOOOOOONER!!! you just sound like an ass.

 

[Erik]

main difference is stoner rock is about fuckin smokin weed and having fun with rainbow coloured mushrooms while doom is about DECAY AND DEATH AND YOU WILL DIE

 

[Demilich]

but like, does Ufomammut being a stoner band make them any less of a doom band? there are surely stoner bands out there that sing about death and decay, as well as doom bands out there that don't exclusively.

 

[Ellestin]

Erik have you received my pm?

he's right, but you can also rock the fuck out while smoking weed.

but seriously, RB is not stoner anything AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED*. It is DOOOOOOOM.

i think that "FUCK THE WEAK STONER SHIT" in the RB booklets qualifies them as not stoner. Btw I believe he was talking about the new Runemagick - Envenom album discussed earlier in the thread?
