Just about anything by Candlemass. Other than that I don't really listen to 'slow' music

 

[ossa]

Agalloch's "In the Shadow of Our Pale Companion" is a masterpiece.

[CF87]

Evoken ~lost kingdom of darkness,tragedy eternal.
Type O Negative ~love you to death.
Theatre of Tragedy ~bring forth ye shadow.
Cathedral ~frozen rapture,a funeral request,serpent eve.
Paradise Lost ~gothic,dead emotion,rapture,the painless.
My Dying Bride ~your river,symphonaire infernus et spera empyrium, l'amour detruit.
Katatonia ~tomb of insomnia,velvet thorns.

 

[Melodeath]

This is fairly simple considering the existence of funeral doom

Anything by Mournful Congregation or Worship

 

[Personified Hatred]

Probably not, but I consider it a slow song. What are we using as criteria for this thread?

This thread concernes slow songs and ballads, too.

 

[The_Lunar_Strain]

Dream Theater-Live Another Day
Stratovarious-Forever
Kamelot-Love you to Death
In Flames-Only For the Weak
Eguy-Superheroes
Helloween-Time of the Oath
Rhapsody of Fire-Lamento Eroico

Superheroes isn't slow...The Asylum might count as slow.
The Bard Song is amazing.

 

[The Butt]

"Everytime I Die" by Children of Bodom.

I know there are hundreds more, but this is the first to come to mind because it helped convert me to metal.

And because it's a good fucking song?

Although I remember arguing with someone who claimed it was a ballad...was that you?

That'd be I, long ago.

Anyways...
Black Sabbath - The Sign of the Southern Cross
Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
Burzum - Dunkelheit
Candlemass - Solitude (haven't heard much Candlemass, only the first album... this song kicks ass though)
Emperor - In Longing Spirit (at least the first half of it counts)
In Flames - Jester Script Transfigured
Metallica - To Live is to Die

That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

Superheroes isn't slow...The Asylum might count as slow.

Superheroes isn't the slowest song ever but its slow

 

[Walls_of_Jericho]

Helloween - The Keeper of the Seven Keys
truly amazing...

Superheroes isn't slow...The Asylum might count as slow.
The Bard Song is amazing.

There is an "epic" version of Superheroes on the Superheroes EP thats slow though, but I prefer the original

 

[WhiteRaven]

Burzum - Dunkelheit
Burning Witch - Sacred Predictions

 

[mutantllama]

There are a bunch of slow songs that I like.
But the few that come to my mind first are

Children of the Sea-Black Sabbath
Black Sabbath-Black Sabbath
The Legacy-Testament

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

"Burzum" (NOT Dunkelheit, that isn't the fucking title) definitely. AMAZING song.

 

[Kasz]

Anything by Bathory

 

[Lacri]

Pantera - Cemetery Gates

 

[Belligerent]

Novembers Doom have a ton of cool slow metal songs.
