The Official Doom Thread

[J.]

yeah, got both. love both

has anyone ever ordered from brainticket? worst service ever.

 

[J.]

what are some good 80's Doom bands? or even 70's other than Sab?

 

[Krilons Resa]

NOt exactly Doom...but check out Cirith Ungol - King Of The Dead. And try not to initially judge the vocals.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Also, check out Side B of Black Flag - My War...trust me.

Dream Death

Obviously SV & Pentagram.

 

[swizzlenuts]

Pagan Altar - Volume 1 is pretty doomy at times.

I was thinking Jerusalem, Sir Lord Baltimore, Shinki Chen, and Budgie too, but they are obviously way more heavy rock.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Yeah, 70's doom is kinda tough. can name a bunch of songs but nothing absolute.

Maybe ...Buffalo - Volcanic Rock.

 

[J.]

got Dream Death - Journey into Mystery, Pentagram and SV.

what about Pagan ALtar and WfG?

 

[Krilons Resa]

Wait a minute!!!!!!!!....YOU DONT OWN PAGAN ALTAR - VOLUME 1 ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!!

 

[Krilons Resa]

...and I was never much a huge fan of WfG besides their Soviet Invasion EP...which is awesome.

 

[swizzlenuts]

I like Witchfinder General quite a bit. It's NWOBHM with Sabbath riffs.

and..

Wait a minute!!!!!!!!....YOU DONT OWN PAGAN ALTAR - VOLUME 1 ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!!

 

[J.]

nah, aint got it. seems to be difficult to find.

 

[J.]

is that Orne CD any good? ill admit from what ive heard from all post RB bands, ive been disappointed. The Puritan is just OK.

 

[Krilons Resa]

Yes it's good but its not doom. its kinda like Van Der Graaf Generator-type prog rock...sorta.

 

[Mr_Haze]

J, it's not exactly doom, but try Flower Travellin' Band's 71' release Satori. You probably won't be disappointed.

edit: and get volume 1!!!!!!!!

 

[Demilich]

Satori is one of the best albums I've heard from the 70s or any decade! Definitely worth it.

Also, their debut includes covers of Black Sabbath, 21st Century Schizoid Man and House of the Rising Sun among a couple others

 

[Mr_Haze]

It's not a full song, but here's a studio version put to some live footage so you can at least hear what they sound like before looking further

 

[J.]

what's Last Chapter like? John Perez is sending me a free copy of Living Waters since my Brainticket order sat there for 3 weeks, all the while they were out of the CD i ordered.

 

[Krilons Resa]

personally, i think its not all that great. like a third-tier Solitude Aeturnus clone.

 

[Climb Thar Hill]

Concerning Flower Travellin Band;

outside of Satori, any of their other albums worth owning? I've actually never listened to anything else besides Satori

 

[Evil_Legend]

Concerning Flower Travellin Band;

Hell Yes. I own them all.

Get this one next if you can. Flower Travellin' Band - Kirikyogen

The first 4 are the best. They were just called "FLOWER" back in '69


Now instock WITCHFINDER GENERAL.... I know they're tough to find, but I found some to stock now.

+ DESOLATION ANGELS BOXSETS.
