RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD

[Necro Joe]

They're easily the best doom band who never played doom.

 

[~Neurotica]

I heard one song by the band called something like ermmmmm, - "Chruasan" (or maybe a lil other letters combination). Its like Scotlands ethnic music+metal. I'm sure you guys know about it. Could you advice me where to get some stuff of them? As I've been searching but no results.

SO GODDAMN FUCKING AWESOME OH MY GOD.

Too bad it's so stupid and short and their only other good CD contains lots of battle samples which make Welowie better by comparison.

I havent heard any other Gontyna Kry. is the demo collection better or the new full length?

 

[Mort Divine]

Someone recommend me something similar to Saturnus,Swallow The Sun, Novembre, or November's Doom.

@ impudent: are you comparing paradise lost to arcturus? ive never heard paradise lost, but im not interested if it is at all like arcturus.

hey guys, i'm new to this board, but i've been over on the bloodbath one for a while. wondering if you could give me some advice based on what i like.

opeth
bloodbath
necrophagist
decapitated (winds of creation most)
agalloch
arch enemy
children of bodom
dimmu borgir
edge of sanity
hypocrisy
in flames (most stuff before last few albums)
porcupine tree
soilwork (older stuff)
symphony x
wintersun

i appreciate it. give me lots of stuff, as i'm always looking for new things to listen to. thanks.

Since you like bloodbath the following cds might be for you.

Entombed-left hand path,clandestine
Amorphis-the karelian isthmus
Unleashed-where no life dwells,shadows in the deep
Grave-into the grave,you'll never see. If you want newer grave go with fiendish regression, this album was recorded at peter from hyprocrisy's studio(personally can't get into 'hypocrisy')
God Macabre-the winterlong
Dismember-like an everflowing stream

 

[CF87]

I'm looking for some metal bands with more clean and also acoustic guitar passages along with more chord use in general. Raspy or cleans vocals are fine(i guess that would depend on how they sound)

I do not want something too wanky or new-school sounding either. More cleaner guitar and acoustics can be scattered alittle through an entire cd for all I care.

 

[Zephyrus]

Opeth cover/wannabe bands?

 

[Mort Divine]

Empyrean Sky - The Snow White Rose Of Paradise

 

[CF87]

Opeth cover/wannabe bands?

I'm not exactly looking for cover or wannabe bands of a specific band.

Bands I like with acoustic passages and more clean guitar parts.

Opeth
Solitude Aeternus
Sentenced
Paradise Lost
Metallica
Lord Belial
Iced Earth
Theatre of Tragedy-velvet darkness they fear
Leaves' Eyes-lovelorn
Edge of Sanity(crimson)
Unleashed. Captured, simple effective acoustic part that creates a great atmosphere. Across The Open Sea instrumental.
Black sabbath
Tristania
Green Carnation
Carcass- pedigree butchey towards the middle
Slayer. spill the blood
Brutality. awakening, esoteric, sympathy, and spirit world instrumentals
Amorphis- karelia intro/ opening, 'eclipse'
Gorement
Katatonia
Tiamat-the astral sleep,clouds,wildhoney
Cathedral

One or a few parts on an entire album is even great to me.

 

[LivingCadaver]

hm I need new doom metal bands, I'd like something kinda slow but crushing as fuck! Any suggestions?

Which bands do you already have?

THEE PLAGUE OF GENTLEMEN - PRIMULA PESTIS

thanks for the suggestion, that bands rules.

I like the following bands:

Ataraxie
Asunder
Bethlehem
Cathedral
Disembowelment
Electric Wizard
Graves at sea
My Dying Bride
Novembers Doom
October Tide
Warhorse
Wormphlegm
Wormwood

if there is some stoner sound to your suggestions, I might like it too.

 

[Necro Joe]

Again I recommend Buried at Sea but first I urge you to get Dopesmoker by Sleep right fucking now.

I havent heard any other Gontyna Kry. is the demo collection better or the new full length?

They don't have a new full-length as far as I know...

Krew Naszych Ojcow is what I was talking about. It's good but features a lot of "filler."

Ataraxie
Asunder
Bethlehem
Cathedral
Disembowelment
Electric Wizard
Graves at sea
My Dying Bride
Novembers Doom
October Tide
Warhorse
Wormphlegm
Wormwood

EXCELLENT taste!

I like my metal to be metal, rather than anything -core.
