Any other Stoner/Doom metal fans?

[TojesDolan]

Hi guys. I was wondering if any of you has ahd an experience with the band Winter?

<-<

[Txus]

Seems like this is only a doom thread now :( Haven't seen any stoner bands mentioned for pages / months
I've been listening to Bongzilla and Kyuss lately :)

[Smackers]

Harvey Milk.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Hi guys. I was wondering if any of you has ahd an experience with the band Winter?

<-<
They're really good.

[Sleepy]

Seems like this is only a doom thread now :( Haven't seen any stoner bands mentioned for pages / months

Bongzilla is cool.

[Poofy 666]

Actually I made a mistake, the only Solitude Aeturnus I have is Beyond The Crimson Horizon.

I have Through the Darkest Hour. I don't really enjoy the vocals, but its only a minor detail.

[pate]

I love SA's vocals.

[the2stranger]

So is there any Sludge, that is as scary and poop pants worthy as Corrupted?
I love these guys, might be ordering some albums by them in a while. :cool:

[Phototropic]

Bongzilla is cool.

Never heard Bongzilla, I'll get on stonerrock and download them, been listenin to Goatsnake a lot recently...and the old orange goblin (time travelling blues)

[the2stranger]

Bongzilla is awesome.
Love the vocals.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Has anyone (Freezing Moon and Jondur in particular) heard the finnish band The Coven? I got one of their EPs just then and it's some damn fine Doom :D

[the2stranger]

Is it traditional doom?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Of course :D

[the2stranger]

:cool:
I listnened to Epicus Doomus Metalicus twice yesterday!

[Apocalyptic Raids]

:cool:

I think I actually prefer that album to Nightfall, now :eek:

edit: actually I just listened to Nightfall and I can't decide :(

This is like trying to choose between Don't Break The Oath and Melissa.

IMPOSSIBLE

[the2stranger]

:(

I've been pretty big on Corrupted last week. \m/

[Txus]

I've been listening to A LOT of Doom today, I went to school listening to Candlemass, Saint Vitus and Cathedral. I'm listening to The Gates of Slumber at the moment (Suffer no Guilt) what an amazing album, I'm liking ti more than The Awakening...:eek:

[metal-militia]

I've been listening to loads of Saint Vitus and Reverend Bizarre recently. Can't wait to see them at the end of the month!

[Txus]

I would kill to see both of them live, bastard :mad:

[TojesDolan]

They're really good.
I need someone to send me some of their stuff if that's possible.

I remind you the band is WINTER.

And there's some tofu treats for those who respond and stuff.

<_<

[Nuke Broadcast]

:(

I've been pretty big on Corrupted last week. \m/


ive only got a few..collections, haha. i dont think it gets much better than corrupted.

[Daven]

Corrupted owns. \m/

[Christian Holocaust]

Winter's great, so's Thergothon and Skepticism.

But Saint Vitus and Black Sabbath are no doom metal slouches.

[Bukowski]

Saint Vitus were on SST. Good band.

I'm getting into this slowly. Electric Wizard are my favorite so far.

[ATM]

Where would be a good starting point for Doom?

[Shattered_Future]

Candlemass or Cathedral.

[ATM]

Well I heard a little Candlemass and I thought the vocals were kind of cheesy.

/runs

[Daven]

That's the way i thought when i first heard them, but then i gave them another chance and fell in love with the band.

[ATM]

What are Cathedral like?

[Poofy 666]

So is there any Sludge, that is as scary and poop pants worthy as Corrupted?
I love these guys, might be ordering some albums by them in a while. :cool:

I have yet to hear something as scary/creepy as Corrupted, aside from the obvious Sunn o))) etc...

Check out the band Abandon though. In Reality We Suffer is damn good sludge/funeral doom.

[Daven]

Hey Poofy, what Corrupted do you have?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Where would be a good starting point for Doom?
Check out the Saint Vitus I put in the Daily Upload.

If you aren't on the DU I will link you myself.

And there's some tofu treats for those who respond and stuff.
I have linkage.

give me your email >_>

[Poofy 666]

I only have Llenandose de Gusanos :(

When I get some money I might order their other ones :cool:

NP: Isole - Bleak

[Daven]

Did you download the one i sent to TDU? I think i might like that one better than LdG.

[Poofy 666]

I didn't even know it was uploaded. I'll check.

[ATM]

Check out the Saint Vitus I put in the Daily Upload.

I'll check it out, thanks.

[Daven]

I didn't even know it was uploaded. I'll check.

It was on yesterday's issue i think. It was El Mundo Frio.

[Poofy 666]

Yeah, I'm downloading it right now (72%).

[CabbageStabbage]

I listened to some Kyuss today, it was good.

Isole pwns, I have to get more doom

[Apocalyptic Raids]

What do you have?

[the2stranger]

Corrupted owns. \m/
Hell yeah. \m/

Sounds good.
Most scary stuff I've heard: Sunn O))) (esp. the White2 album), Wormphlegm - Tomb Of The Ancient King (esp. the first track) and Corrupted, and maybe Fantomas (can't remember the song, the long one:p)

I only have Llenandose de Gusanos

When I get some money I might order their other ones

Where do you oder Corrupted cds?
I only know one site (crucial blast) but they charge 35 dollarrs for El Mundo Frio and 20 for Llenandose De Gusanos. :(

That was one big catch up post.

np: Corrupted - El Mundo Frio

How are you doing?

[Txus]

I can't sleep but I'm in a good mood :)

Yourself?

[the2stranger]

I'm in a good mood as well.
The sun shines which is nice and I have no obligations today, so that's nice as well.

also my np makes me happy :D
Corrupted. \m/

[Txus]

Sun? It's still dark in here...which is always a good thing :D

Not a fan of Corrupted, those Japanese bastards can make some scary music.

NP: Agalloch - Falling Snow

My np makes ME happy.

[the2stranger]

I love the creepy sound Corrupted create.
I listened to Agalloch a few days ago.

I might go and buy tickets for the Agalloch gig today. :)

[Txus]

Great, Man. My tickets are almost in the mail :D

[the2stranger]

Good, who are they supporting?
Here: Novembers Doom.

[Txus]

Katatonia :D

[the2stranger]

Bastard! :mad:

/Cries.
:(:(

Enjoy mate!

[Txus]

I knew you would envy me :p

Thanks mate, I will.

[the2stranger]

Hell yeah.
That gig in Poland was so awesome. :D

[CabbageStabbage]

Holy crap, that Corrupted song is 72 minutes long!

I heard one Novembers Doom song, it sounded pretty awesome. I would love to see Agalloch live :(

[Daven]

I bought mine from the Crucial Blast eBay store :cool:

[actionfan32]

I'm just getting into doom metal. My Dying Bride and Novembers Doom are easily my favorite doom bands, but I also really like Paradise Lost and Anathema (although I don't own any cds from them), Black Sabbath and High on Fire (I don't know if they count as doom, though). And some of the other doom bands I've heard are Candlemass, Cathedral, Count Raven and Electric Wizard. As you can probably tell, I prefer the doom-death style of MDB and ND over the "traditional" sound of bands like Candlemass. Any recommendations?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

early Katatonia.

[actionfan32]

Cool. I heard a few songs from their album Viva Emptiness, but if I remember correctly that's a more recent one. Any particular albums/songs from their old stuff that you'd recommend?

[CabbageStabbage]

I'm 40 minutes in listening to the Corrupted song/album El Mundo Frio.

Very strange. The singer's growl is so awesome. Synth harp reminds me of running thru forests in Oblivion.

EDIT: Finished listening to it. Very unique.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Cool. I heard a few songs from their album Viva Emptiness, but if I remember correctly that's a more recent one. Any particular albums/songs from their old stuff that you'd recommend?
Anything off Dance of December Souls.

I'm not huge on it, but I think that's what you're looking for.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Hell yes.

You knew I would chime in eventually :P
Have you heard the non-bolded ones?

[Shattered_Future]

Man, I've listened to nothing but Bongzilla for the past few days. I never really realized how awesome stoner music is...

[pate]

Have you heard the non-bolded ones?

No :(

[Apocalyptic Raids]

They are all awesome. You should check out Orodruin's split with Reverend Bizarre, it's amazing.

You know the new Solitude Aeturnus comes out this year?

[Christian Holocaust]

Ras Algethi and Asphyx... more black/death but still quite stony.

[Kage]

How about Orange mo'****in Goblin.

[Phototropic]

How about Orange mo'****in Goblin.

Old stuff is amazin, Time travellin, frequencies etc, newer albums are lame as hell, its gotten so stale for them

[the2stranger]

Yes man,thanks.
Enjoy. :D
I bought mine from the Crucial Blast eBay store :cool:

ALrright.
What payment options do they have?
I've never ordered anything from a foreign webshop. :-\

I'll check it out.

Indeed :)

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I'll check it out.
Their full length also destroys.

[pate]

*checks Russian site*

I found Revelation's "Expulsion from the Paradise"

[Bartender]

I'm just getting into doom metal. My Dying Bride and Novembers Doom are easily my favorite doom bands, but I also really like Paradise Lost and Anathema (although I don't own any cds from them), Black Sabbath and High on Fire (I don't know if they count as doom, though).

Forest of Shadows Where Dreams Turn To Dust EP is quite good.

[the2stranger]

Seconded.
Also the full-length is very much enjoyable.

I used Pay Pal. But I think they also let you use credit cards.

[the2stranger]

I don't have a paypal account.
I'll look in to it though, cause I really want those albums. :D

I'm listening to one of my favorite funeral doom bands right now:
Shape of Despair.
\m/

[Patrick O)))]

Hey thread :cool:

[the2stranger]

Hey mate.

So, for a change I'm lsitening to Corrupted again.
So awesome, can't get enough of it.

np: Corrupted - III/ Sangre/Vi-Humanos
/poops pants.

[repcak]

just listen to Thergothon and i think i may try to write a song in their style... guitar, growl... well i don't have drums, but i can clap my hands :D

[the2stranger]

Matrass drums like Implaed Northern Moonforest will do fine. :p

FuneralDoom!
\m/

np: Reclusiam - Lithanies Of Rust And Decay

[Poofy 666]

Impaled Northern Moonforest!


I'm listening to Corrupted too.
<3

[the2stranger]

I'm becoming a Corrupted fanboy I think. :D
Are their splits any good?

[Poofy 666]

Heh, they did a split with Discordance Axis :lol:

I have only heard Llenandose de Gusanos and El Mundo Frio though :(

[the2stranger]

Same here. :(
They did a lot of splits with grind bands actually, pretty weird. :-\

[AA-12]

I know I mentioned/whored them before, but has anyone check out Grivf yet? They're my favorite doom band.

[the2stranger]

I know Grief, never heard of Grivf.
What do you recommend?

[AA-12]

I was going to say all they had out was the demo, so that, but I just saw on M-A they released an album. If it's anything like the demo, it's ****ing epic :)

http://metal-archives.com/band.php?id=37808

[the2stranger]

Sounds awesome!
/Adds to to-check-list.

[metal-militia]

I know Grief, never heard of Grivf.
What do you recommend?

Grief?

Miserbaly Ever After is quality, as is Torso :chug:

Saint Vitus are the best band ever

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Tojes:
I already sent it to you. :)
:mad:

Saint Vitus are the best band ever
I think V is my favourite Doom album.

[metal-militia]

Yeah it certainly is very good. I'm not sure which is better out of Born Too Late or V though, too hard to decide.

np Saint Vitus - Angry Man

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I prefer V, but Born Too Late is awesome too.

[pate]

Born Too Late is bloody awesome.

[ATM]

Bongzilla are awesome.

[metal-militia]

I think they're pretty good, nothing special though. Saw Apogee pretty cheap the other day but couldn't afford it.

Any fans of Confessor here? Condemned is an allright album, shame the vocals aren't too great.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I've heard alot about them, I haven't got around to checking them out yet though. I have seen them labelled as Technical Doom, which doesn't sound very appealing to be honest.

[metal-militia]

Yeah it's a bit strange to be honest. Still worth a listen though!

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Yeah I'll probably get around to it eventually.

[repcak]

NP: Katatonia - Dance of December Souls (album)

old Katatonia is so beautiful... i love them; \m/

[Kage]

I find old Katatonia to be repugnant.

[Shattered_Future]

I'd much rather new Katatonia than old, but the old stuff has its moments.

[Kage]

I'd much rather new Katatonia than old, but the old stuff has its moments.
Fairly accurate. I have to be in an EXTREMELY specific mood for old Katatonia that I rarely am in. I listen to post-Discouraged Ones Katatonia A LOT, though.

Queens of the ****in Stoneage.

[repcak]

i just prefer growls in doom metal... thats all :p

NP: My Dying Bride - The Cry of Mankind (the beginning is so wonderful)

[pate]

I much prefer clean vocals with my doom.

[repcak]

i hated clean vocals in general for a looong time... thats the reason why it took me so long to listen to power metal :p

[Nepenthe]

I think Dance Of December Souls is Katatonia's best, but Brave Murder Day is their worst.

[repcak]

Brave Murder Day is their best :confused:


/but music is subjective

[pate]

I like...the new one a lot. The only thing that makes BMD worthwhile is Mikael.

[Nuke Broadcast]

Any fans of Confessor here? Condemned is an allright album, shame the vocals aren't too great.

ive got unraveled..and its allright i guess. i didnt enjoy the vocals much either.

[Poofy 666]

Finally got around to checking Shape of Despair out.

I think I've gone through about 6 underwear changes.

[Nepenthe]

Eh, Mikael is what makes BMD bad. His growls are just too clean and straightfoward. They don't have that rasp and despair that Renske's have, and it's his vocals that make December Souls such an amazing album.

[pate]

I'm prejudiced against BMD, because the on the version I obtained, every song is like 20 minutes. Brave is 46. And they are really that length, not just mistagged.

[Txus]

Finally got around to checking Shape of Despair out.

I think I've gone through about 6 underwear changes.
Angels of Distress has been played constantly in my iTunes :)

Awesome band.

[the2stranger]

I'd much rather new Katatonia than old, but the old stuff has its moments.

I don't like Jonas' growls,I love Mikeal's growls though.
BMD is such an awesome yet simplisitic album.
My favorite Katatonia album is actually: Viva Emptiness.
:)

Finally got around to checking Shape of Despair out.

I think I've gone through about 6 underwear changes
\m/
Angels of Distress has been played constantly in my iTunes

Awesome band.
My favorite FD band actually. :eek:

[Bartender]

^
Seconded.
Also the full-length is very much enjoyable.

Did you send me that full-length at some point? I think I lost it - can't find it now, at any rate - but I remember it being pretty good.


Queens of the ****in Stoneage.

I never really thought of myself as much of a fan of theirs, but suddenly I find I have three of their albums. Kind of a pleasant surprise. Do you have a favourite?

[the2stranger]

Did you send me that full-length at some point? I think I lost it - can't find it now, at any rate - but I remember it being pretty good.



I remember uploading the full length a long while back. (or maybe just a few tracks, can't remember.) I can re-up it if you like?
Are you on the daily upload list?

I'll probably be able to uplaod it during the afternoon, since I'm at uni right now.
<_<

Also:
Repcak:
On the sex wtih funderal doom topic:
I played Mar De Grises (doom/death) last evening.
And I must say we had a very enjoyable evening. :cool:

np: Ulver - Tomorrow Never Knows

Kyuss > QOTSA.
I always found QOTSA to 'forced catchy', if that makes sense.

[Bartender]

I remember uploading the full length a long while back. (or maybe just a few tracks, can't remember.) I can re-up it if you like?
Are you on the daily upload list?

Nah, I'm not. It's alright though, I don't want you to go to the trouble of uploading it again, I'll just wait until I (someday) stumble across it in a record store. I've got the EP for now (and I don't even have a physical copy of that).

[Werny]

I got Khanate's self-titled. I don't find it very droney, rather more sludgey, but then again I've only listened to the first song. They're the only "drone" band I've heard that's lived up to my expectations (heavy, hypnotic, abrasive)! Amazing.

[Jondur]

Any fans of St Vitus - Die Healing?

I think it's a great album. Scott Reagers has so much more expression in his voice than Wino.

NP St Vitus - Dark World

ps. I'm in the process of burning a compilation CD of songs with World in the title. Dunno why - I just am. So far I've got:

St Vitus - Dark World, Morbid Angel - World of Sh1t, Corrosion of Conformity - Mad World, At The Gates, World of Lies, Reverend Bizarre - Doom over the World,

And that's all I can think of in my collection so far. But to be fair I haven't looked through to find others yet. An interesting new approach to making compilation CDs though I'm sure you'll agree.

[Kyle]

A couple of possibilities;

Black Sabbath - Lord of This World
Corrosion of Conformity - World on Fire

[metal-militia]

Any fans of St Vitus - Die Healing?

I think it's a great album. Scott Reagers has so much more expression in his voice than Wino.

NP St Vitus - Dark World


Yeah I do like his vocals, but I guess my favourite album with him on would be the self titled debut.
I've only heard a couple of songs off Die Healing actually. Is it better than the early stuff with him?

[the2stranger]

I got Khanate's self-titled. I don't find it very droney, rather more sludgey, but then again I've only listened to the first song. They're the only "drone" band I've heard that's lived up to my expectations (heavy, hypnotic, abrasive)! Amazing.

I have that one too, great music.
I was quite shocked when I heard the, cause my only drone experience before that was Sunn O))).
I love the vocals on Khanate, it sound s like Chuck, but more insane and raspy.
I've never checked out Things Viral 'cause it doesn't get good reviews at M-A, but than again, how trustworthy is M-A..

SO anyone know if that one's worth picking up?

np: Wormphlegm - Epejumalat Monet Tesse Muinen Palveltin Lauran Ja Lesse

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Any fans of St Vitus - Die Healing?

I think it's a great album. Scott Reagers has so much more expression in his voice than Wino.
Ah, I haven't heard any Vitus past V yet :(

V is possibly my favourite Doom album though. Either that or Epicus.

[Kage]

I never really thought of myself as much of a fan of theirs, but suddenly I find I have three of their albums. Kind of a pleasant surprise. Do you have a favourite?
Almost the exact same thing happened to me.

My favorites are Songs for the Deaf and R. But my favorite song is on Lullabys--You've Got a Killer Scene There Man.

[Tyr]

I'd say that R is my favourite QOTSA, but I'm not a huge fan.

[AlienEater]

I really love R. Thier first's good too.

Ah, I haven't heard any Vitus past V yet

Wasn't Reagers before? Anyway I much prefer Wino, I love everything he's been.

Amon Amarth - Versus the World

[Tyr]

I really love R. Thier first's good too.

The first one's the only one I don't have.

[AlienEater]

The first one's the only one I don't have.

It's a worthy investment. I prefer it to Songs for the Deaf and Lullabies

[Tyr]

It's a worthy investment. I prefer it to Songs for the Deaf and Lullabies

Right. I'll have to check it out then.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Wasn't Reagers before? Anyway I much prefer Wino, I love everything he's been.
They were talking about Die Healing, which is after.

[Iron Bars]

Pete thanks for reminding me that I had Aarni's stuff lying around. I love it how he does all that progy stuff but keeps the Doom feel in his music. The flute is great.

[the2stranger]

Pete thanks for reminding me that I had Aarni's stuff lying around. I love it how he does all that progy stuff but keeps the Doom feel in his music. The flute is great.

No problem mate. :)
I'll probably upload it for the daily shortly, along with some other more typical Avant-Garde stuff.
The flute is great indeed, it gives a real nice touch to it.

[repcak]

NP: My Dying Bride - From Darkest Skies

i love this band... who else does?

[the2stranger]

/Raises hand!
I do!
Great band
I love The Cry Of Mankind ( the whole cd is great actually).
Also Turn Loose The Swans and their second newest rocks, I haven't heard the newest; A Line of Deathless Kings.

Also: For My Fallen Angel is on of the most beautiful tracks ever. :)

EDIT:
In fact I'm going to listen to The Angel And The Dark River before I go to sleep. :D

[Shattered_Future]

Their newest album is really, REALLY good. Much better than SOD, WOL.

I love My Dying Bride. Like Gods Of The Sun is a doom masterpiece.

[the2stranger]

I like SOD, WOL as well. :)
My Wine In Silence is such a great track.

[Shattered_Future]

I hated SOD, WOL, to be quite honest, though I haven't listened to the album in a while. It seemed to drag on and on and on from what I remember.

[Sleepy]

I'm in love with The Dreadful Hours.

Also, I've been listening to Krux's S/T lately and it's bloody amazing. Sending it in to Oz when I get a chance, in case any of you haven't heard it.

[Bartender]

I like SOD, WOL as well. :)
My Wine In Silence is such a great track.

That's the only song I've heard from that album, but it's a good track, yeah.

[Daven]

My favorite MDB is definitely TLtS. It's so damn good.

[ATM]

Guess who came into my work today, guys.

[Daven]

Who?

[ATM]

Only the mother****ing singer from Saint Vitus \m/ \m/

[Daven]

:eek:

Hole crap man, that's amazing!!

Where do you work?

[ATM]

A music store in Maryland. Wino is from the area, so he stops in occasionaly. He bought a bass today.

Which music store? I live in Frederick so I'm a bit curious.

[Orely]

hello

this is the first time i post in this thread. i like several bm bands. im looking for recommendations, perefrably for good black/doom bands.

thanks for any help.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Nortt are exactly what you're looking for, and Wormphlegm would probably be to your liking also.

You would also like Funeral Doom bands such as Thergothon, Esoteric, Skepticism and Mournful Congregation.

[ATM]

Which music store? I live in Frederick so I'm a bit curious.

Chuck Levins in Wheaton.

On the other side of the doom spectrum, I reviewed The Morning Never Came by Swallow The Sun, which I consider one of the best doom metal albums ever.

[ATM]

Which Bass?

A really crappy one. He said he just wanted one to write riffs on.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Speaking of Wino, what are Spirit Caravan like?

[ATM]

I have Elusive Truth and its pretty awesome.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Sweet.

[Eliminator]

I need to get into this stuff.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

zomg get some Candlemass and Saint Vitus

[Txus]

And some Cathedral and Solitude Aeternus.

[Daven]

*Aeturnus

[Txus]

Ah, **** it. Sorry grammer Nazzie :lol:

[Daven]

:p

[Txus]

Dude, you haven't reached the 8000 yet? wtf? We had the same postcount about 3 months ago....

[Daven]

Nah, I havent been very active postwise lately.

[Txus]

haha, You suck.

[Phototropic]

This is a review about a local band in my area, they're absoloutely amazing

Bomb The Sun – "EP"

It’s no secret that the band Kyuss have been hugely influential on a lot of current bands, although very few have managed to capture “that” expansive desert rock sound to a high level of competence. Step forward, Bomb The Sun. The six colossal tracks here are spread over a whopping 45 minutes, highlight for me being “Not Waving, But Drowning” which sounds like it could have come straight from the groundbreaking “Sky Valley” album but there’s not a bad song on this disc and fans of the aforementioned should be dropping everything and getting themselves a copy of this immediately.


You guys should get into them, they play some of the most chilled out music I've ever heard, very long songs :D

http://www.myspace.com/bombthesun

[Kyle]

Yeah, you mentioned them before in here, and uploaded their EP. It's a great piece of music. :chug:

[Txus]

Do you mind sending me the EP? I would deeply appreciate it. Sounds like my thing :)

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Ah, **** it. Sorry grammer Nazzie :lol:
You're just lucky pate wasn't here to see that mistake!

[the2stranger]

Anyone already heard Ahab - Call Of The Wretched Sea?
German funeral doom, I haven't ordered it yet, but I heard good things about it.

[Phototropic]

Do you mind sending me the EP? I would deeply appreciate it. Sounds like my thing :)

of course not

add me

jonny40k2k@hotmail.com

[ATM]

I'd love to hear that, too.

baerwitness@yahoo.com

[Eliminator]

Okay, so I'm listening to some Candlemass.

I was expecting the vocals to be better.

[Daven]

What Candlemass did you hear?

[Eliminator]

Some of the stuff off of Epicus Doomicus Metallicus.

[Daven]

Damn, i love that album's vocals.

[Eliminator]

The clean vocal type stuff doesn't seem to fit for me.

[Neowens]

I've only just got into stoner and doom thanks to some friends. As soon as i heard bongzilla, i thought "where have you been all my life?". It can get a bit repetitive though, but if you feel like some downtuned feedback ridden riffs, i suggest some SLEEP, especially Dragonaut. I bum:

sleep
high on fire
clutch
weedeater
kyuss
****emos
bongzilla
abeueda
the melvins
pothead
electric wizard and of course sabbath.

You should check out band called OM, they have a tune called "at giza" you need to here it. Its tibetan sleep.

[pate]

Spirit Caravan

They are bloody awesome.

You're just lucky pate wasn't here to see that mistake!

Welcome to the family

Stoner is so earth-like (thanks to the low tuning) I havent heard OM yet but I really want to check them out

Great list ya put there, don't see many people mention the melvins these days, they aint really stoner, freak-rock :smoke:

[Neowens]

now thanks to this forum, i've just downloaded epicus doomicus metallicus, its groovy.

[metal-militia]

) I havent heard OM yet but I really want to check them out


I love Om, especially the song On the Mountain at Dawn off the album Variations on a Theme

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Okay, so I'm listening to some Candlemass.

I was expecting the vocals to be better.
If you don't like the more operatic vocals you could try Saint Vitus. They have more of a crooning thing going on, for lack of a better word. Kind of like Danzig without the Elvis-isms, maybe. The music tends to be slower and more depressing, instead of Epic like Candlemass is.

[Eliminator]

I'll give Candlemass another chance later.

However if they fail my patented Eliminatronex Band Test v2.0 THEY'RE OUTTA HEEEYYUHHH.

[AlienEater]

Listen to some St Vitus.

[CabbageStabbage]

So, Thergothon. They're pretty cool. I heard Stream from the Heavens today (daily upload w00t)

I like how their keyboard tone in Stream from the Heavens sounds just like Mr. Crowley. I also like the fact that I timed one of their songs, and it was something in the region of 45 BPM.

Any similar bands?

[Poofy 666]

Shape of Despair
Evoken
Skepticism
Abandon
Ataraxie

I love Om, especially the song On the Mountain at Dawn off the album Variations on a Theme
Been meaning to check those guys out for a while

[Nepenthe]

Shape of Despair
Evoken
Skepticism
Abandon
Ataraxie

The bolded specifically, the underlined secondly, and the italicized two lastly.

[Poofy 666]

I found Shape of Despair at my local CD store the other day :cool:

[metal-militia]

Been meaning to check those guys out for a while

Do it.

Anyone here like Sloth? The Voice of God is a good album, and they've been added to the Reverend Bizarre show at the Underworld at the end of the month. :chug:

[AlienEater]

Anyone kno when the new Melvins is out?

[Nuke Broadcast]

Do it.

i rather enjoy sloth.

[Shattered_Future]

So yeah, Swallow The Sun is now one of my favorite bands ever.

[ATM]

Anyone kno when the new Melvins is out?

It leaked already, not sure of the official release date.

[Kage]

It leaked already, not sure of the official release date.
How is it?

[ATM]

How is it?

I actually didnt grab it yet, I've been meaning to.

[Kage]

Melvins are hit and miss for me.

[Nuke Broadcast]

Melvins are hit and miss for me.

and here i was, thinking i was the only one.

ive just got one of their splits with lustmord...i dont know. i didnt really like it much.

[ATM]

I have to be in the right mood for them.

[Kage]

and here i was, thinking i was the only one.

ive just got one of their splits with lustmord...i dont know. i didnt really like it much.
Yeah, I'm not sure about that one yet. I want to like it. :-\

I have to be in the right mood for them.
For sure.

[AlienEater]

I like them all the time.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Doooooooom As ****

[Nepenthe]

I avoided The Sword for quite a while because I just assumed they'd be watered down Doom Metal after noticing all the media attention they've been getting, but they're actually really good.

[Bartender]

Yeah, it's alright. One of the few albums I've downloaded recently actually (recently being the last couple of years). I liked it quite a bit at first, but found it swiftly became less interesting to listen to. Don't think I ever made it through a second full time.

[Nepenthe]

I've listened through it about 6 times now in the car, and once or twice here at home, and I'm not growing tired of it yet. The first half of it is admittedly much better than the second, and I could see getting tired of the last half in the future.

[ATM]

Ive been listening to the Sword a ton. I really like that band.

[Nepenthe]

Barael's Blade, Freya, and Winter's Wolves is a deadly trio back to back to back.

[Kage]

You know there are two different bands--Sword and The Sword? Weird, huh?

[pate]

I didn't think The Sword's album was too special. The doom debut from this year that I did think was special is Sahg. Album of the year IMO. And they were great live too...and I met King ov Hell after they played :p

[Nepenthe]

Teehee... sahg.

[pate]

Eh?

[Nepenthe]

I don't know. Sahg. Sag. Funny word.

[pate]

Ahh.

Funny word, great band.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

The Sword isn't too bad, though I haven't payed loads of attention to them yet.

[Werny]

Great list ya put there, don't see many people mention the melvins these days, they aint really stoner, freak-rock :smoke:

They're fit for discussion in here I think. To me they have their sludge moments, drone moments and post-punk moments.

Their new one, (A) Senile Animal, is amazing. It really harks back to their old days.

[Kyle]

The Sword put on a good live show.

[Smackers]

Yeah, I saw them play in DC back in the spring and it was a good show. I didn't think much of their album, but they're a decent live band.

[ATM]

I might go see them because they are coming to Baltimore at the end of this year.

[AlienEater]

I'd assume they'll be OK.

[the2stranger]

So I ordered some nice funeral doom today:

Ahab - Call OF The Wretched Sea
Comatose Vigil - Not A Gleam Of Hope.

w00t!
This makes me very happy. Anyone familair with Ahab?

[Txus]

I am :)

Great funeral doom

[the2stranger]

I've only read great reviews about their full length so I'm sure it will be good.:)

I'm listening to Mournful Cogregation right now, My first ever funeral doom band. :eek:

np: When The Weeping Dawn Beheld Its Mortal Thirst

[Txus]

I don't have any Mournful Cogregation :(

My first FD band was Reclusiam.

[Freezing Moon]

Ahab is great, and Mournful Congregation is definitely one of my favorite funeral doom bands. The Monad of Creation in particular.

[the2stranger]

Their full length is great indeed.
I love the accoustic parts.
The other release I have by them is also great.
It's a demo, don't remember the name though.

np: some scary sludge. :cool:
Corrupted - III - Sangre/VI-Humanos

[Daven]

You've been listening to a lot of Corrupted lately, peter. I hacent listened to FD as of lately, but im enjoying some Candlemass at the moment.

NP: Solitude

[Txus]

\mm/ Candlemass, I haven't listened to Candlemass in a long time.

[the2stranger]

Awesome np mate.
Please let me die in solitude. \m/

I;ve been on quite the Corrupted binge yes.
Can't get enough of them and doom/sludge/stoner in general.

np: Shape Of Despair - Sleep Mirrored

[Daven]

\m/

NP: Crystal Ball

"Visions and dreams you can see in the
Crystal ball"

Definitely my favorite song off EDM.

[pate]

Candlemass!!!!1 One of my favorite bands.

I've been really into stoner doom lately.

[the2stranger]

Stoner!
I don't know many stoner bands though, Kyuss, Bongzilla, Sleep, Weedeater, Bomb The SUn.
That's it :(

[Txus]

Bomb The Sun are GREAAAAAAAAT!
