Doom Metal albums I most like:

Disembowelment - Transcendence Into The Peripheral
Wonderful last track on this one. Everything is as solid as it gets, basically.

Elysian Blaze - Cold Walls & Apparitions
Although not purely doom metal, it beats a heap hands down. Wonderful atmosphere and some great production. Immaculate transitions between tracks 2-3-4.

Esoteric - Epistemological Despondency
My favourite doom metal album. You can relate it to any and whatever mood you're in. The atmosphere mixes wonderfully well with the misanthropic lyrics (more of that prevailant on DIsc 1 than 2). Review.

Listen to Visceral Evisceration.

The only band on that list I haven't checked into is Fall Of The Idols. Are they aviable on Hellride music?

 

[skeptik]

Probably, they were released by I Hate along with the new Gates Of Slumber, Isole, and Burning Saviours.

I want some doom even more downcast and depressing than Mourning Beloveth. Does something like that exist?

 

[ohiogrinder]

You're such a bastard when it comes to vocals. When The Kite String Pops is the perfect mix of doom,sludge and death metal.

Dax Riggs sounds like Scott Stapp of Creed. I think I'll pass...

I don't think all clean vocals are bad...I like the nasally vocals of Pagan Altar. now those are good clean vocals!

For Skepticism, I found Farmakon to be much better than Stormcrowfleet.

Yes. I think the vocalist killed himself. Lyrically they are more depressing than MB, but not musically.

Doom sucks, it's too slow and boring.

thank you for the insightful commentary :Smug:

 

[skeptik]

LOL at you being retarded again and not being able to detect sarcasm.

 

[swizzlenuts]

I'm actually listening to Doom now.

 

[ohiogrinder]

LOL at you being retarded again and not being able to detect sarcasm.

how is one able to tell thru typed word?

you can't

end of story

congratulations on your ability to do so...now go fondle your pillows...:Smug:

 

[swizzlenuts]

The sarcasm is because I have talked about doom quite a bit here....

 

[skeptik]

Oh yeah, I forgot all about the correlation between being able to detect obvious sarcasm and the desire to fondle pillows, thanks for reminding me there chief.

 

[ohiogrinder]

The sarcasm is directed that I have talked about doom quite a bit here....

well I haven't seen those posts. I'll look harder next time.
