Surprised noones mentioned Sunn O))) yet. I thought they were one of the most well known Doom bands?
Corrupted.
I guess it depends how one defines "doom" - I would consider SunnO))) to be drone, cuz the similarities between them and Katatonia, Daylight Dies, etc. to me are pretty much nonexistant. Oh, and another band to check out is Amorphis, specifically "Tales from the Thousand Lakes"
Dude, I figured it would be you that posted up something I love, this band is awesome, thanks!
EDIT: Fucking Awesome. That is all.
i dont really even like doom, until I recorded this local 2 piece doom band....

It was pretty much a live recording, no bass guitar... Revalver 2 and a JCM2000....also used a splitter and ran the guitar into an Ampeg bass cab.
These guys are starting to do pretty good. They actually get radio play in a few states in the US, and in Germany. Got a few germany reviews, as well as Harder Beat and a few others.
Oh, and cobhc... I'm a little concerned by that signature of yours. That does sound like something I'd say but I have no idea where it came from. I really should remember where something like that popped up but I really don't know - where's that from? I don't doubt that I said it (it seems like it would be hard for anyone to fake JBroll quotations) but that should ring a bell...

Buried At Sea - A heavier and more brutal version of Neurosis. I only have the Migration album which I really like alot.
Boris - Very diverse band. Have been through doom, drone, rock n roll, post rock etc. Their earliest stuff is the heaviest. The new stuff is boring shit. Go for Amplifier Worship and Absolutego. Those two are also fairly different from each other in approach tho.
Thanks man, will check all of that out. I'm really looking for basically the slowest, most ambient/atmospheric and heaviest doom out there.
pretty good description for Winter as well.006 said:Thanks man, will check all of that out. I'm really looking for basically the slowest, most ambient/atmospheric and heaviest doom out there.
