Any other Stoner/Doom metal fans?

[the2stranger]

Ye sthey are, haven't listened to them in a while though.
I also know Spiritual Beggars btw.
Going to listen to them in a bit. :cool:

np: Skepticism - Untitled

[pate]

Spiritual Beggars are amazing. Their singer is also the singer of Grand Magus, another amazing ****ing band.

[Shattered_Future]

Speak of the devil, I'm listening to Spiritual Beggars right now.

Grand Magus are excellent. munky_magick had a thread about them a LOOONG time ago.

[pate]

I'm downloading a Spiritual Beggars album, and started it right before they were mentioned.

I HAVE to find another GM album besides Monument.

[the2stranger]

I have the d/t Spiritual Beggars album.
no GM stuff for me yet though. :(

np: Skepticism - Nothing

[pate]

The s/t SB is great. So is the newest one.

[the2stranger]

np: the s/t one.

\m/

Actually I'm more intressted in the new stuff, since it has Per on keys.
Petey <3 keys.

[Patrick O)))]

there's a Sunn O)))/Boris cd out tomorrow, worth getting does anyone know?

[pate]

I don't like Per.

/disgruntled Opeth fanboy

That split album is called Altar. It owns all.

*Correction: It is not a split, but a collaboration between the two bands.

[Patrick O)))]

:eek: I shall make purchase

[the2stranger]

there's a Sunn O)))/Boris cd out tomorrow, worth getting does anyone know?

That album was already out for a month or so here.
Get it, it's really good!

I don't like Per.

/disgruntled Opeth fanboy

*Correction: It is not a split, but a collaboration between the two bands.
ALright, but I love keys.
hmm
Oh well.
I'm enjoying their selftitled as well, so I'll see.

[Danger Bird]

I am currently listening to the first song of my first stoner metal album, Blues for the Red Sun by Kyuss.

It's pretty good.

[the2stranger]

Exellent cd!

Bluesy vibes = feeling good.

[pate]

Blues + metal = secks

[Patrick O)))]

I am currently listening to the first song of my first stoner metal album, Blues for the Red Sun by Kyuss.

It's pretty ****ing superb.

Fix'd

[Kyle]

Oooh yeah, Kyuss is a great introduction. Havn't listened to them in ages, might do so now.

That Boris/Sunn O))) thing sounds sexy, I'll have to hunt it down.

[Bartender]

I'm downloading a Spiritual Beggars album, and started it right before they were mentioned.

I HAVE to find another GM album besides Monument.

Surely their new(est) one (Wolf's Return?) would be fairly easy to find. I saw it in a regular music store.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Album of the year IMO
Suffer No Guilt >8[

[pate]

'Tender: I'll have to hunt for it.

Jono: Are you quoting my statement about Sahg?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Yes.

Anyone heard Lamented Souls? Epic Doom with Simen Hestnæs on vocals, it's ****ing great. I'm not usually a fan of his, but his voice sounds really great here.

[Werny]

Yes.

Anyone heard Lamented Souls? Epic Doom with Simen Hestnæs on vocals, it's ****ing great. I'm not usually a fan of his, but his voice sounds really great here.

They're my favourite Trad/Epic band.

I finally got myself some Anathema! Pentecost III. The vocals are horrible for most of it I found, I love his growls though. The music is done so well... Kingdom is instant classic for me. Love that clean riff.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

They're my favourite Trad/Epic band.
Yeah, this is definitely some of the best Epic I've heard. Not as good as Candlemass or Solstice, but it's definitely up there.

[AlienEater]

Epic sounds so stupid. I hate that word.

[pate]

Epic is a great word.

[Jondur]

Epic sounds so stupid. I hate that word.

I think it's the perfect way to describe a wide array of music from Manowar to Solstice to Doomsword to Enslaved and even Wagner.

Anyway Lamented Souls are fantastic. I love them. His vox are completely bonkers but sound great.

[pate]

I'm downloading The Origins of Misery right now.

[Sleepy]

I'm downloading two Kyuss albums currently.

Also, Krux and Krux II are amazing.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

It's Leif, so of course it's good.

[AlienEater]

I bought a Solarized album the other day, I was pleasantly surprised, it's much better than I was expecting.

[Patrick O)))]

I'm going to get that Sunn O/Boris collaboration tonight, as well as the Blame It On The Fish Primus dvd. lol fanboy ++

Today's purchases:

Clutch - Pure Rock Fury
Mastodon - Remission
Winnebago Deal - Flight Of The Raven

Pretty sound summation of my favourite still-active bands right there :cool:

Inc Primus, seeing as they're touring again in the US, and rumour has it they're doing an album when this tour's finished

[Bartender]

Is that new Winnebago Deal?

Why didn't I know that existed :( Is it any good?

[Jondur]

Just two days till I see Reverend Bizarre, Gates of Slumer and Centurion's Ghost. Jealous?

[Patrick O)))]

Aye it is. It's pretty good, it's WB doing what WB does :p

It arrived in the cd store I work in, but before I could afford to get it it was sent back because noone bought it >:-/ so I had to order another copy

I <3 HMV ^-^

[AlienEater]

No.

[Patrick O)))]

Just two days till I see Reverend Bizarre, Gates of Slumer and Centurion's Ghost. Jealous?

I have CG on my myspace

I am, kinda

[pate]

Just two days till I see Reverend Bizarre, Gates of Slumer and Centurion's Ghost. Jealous?

Yes :mad:

[the2stranger]

I might be seeing them too, on Dutch Doom Day. :)

np: Esoteric - The Blood Of the Eyes
Any fans?
I like these guys.
I will order more cds by them as soon as myy distro restocks them. :mad:

[Sleepy]

Just two days till I see Reverend Bizarre, Gates of Slumer and Centurion's Ghost. Jealous?

Yes!

I just got these in the mail:

Swallow the Sun - The Morning Never Came
How Like a Winter - Beyond My Grey Wake...


Both are incredible.

[Shattered_Future]

First one is one of the greatest doom albums ever. I should go buy it at Tower when I get some cash, and get some sale prices on it.

[Sleepy]

NP Swallow the Sun - Out of the Gloomy Light

This album sounds so amazingly different than Ghosts of Loss. The uber-melancholy guitar leads over the really aggressive growling contrasts well.

[Daven]

I prefer Ghost of Loss over The Morning Never Came.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Just two days till I see Reverend Bizarre, Gates of Slumer and Centurion's Ghost. Jealous?
**** you :mad:

:(

Have you heard the new Gates of Slumber Jon?

[Jondur]

I might be seeing them too, on Dutch Doom Day. :)


You a Dutchie? *passes the2stranger on the left hand side*

I'm going to the Belgium Doom Night as well to see Mirror of Deception, Semlah and The River. Should be a good do.

Might go to Leeds on Friday as Lamp of Thoth are opening. They're supposed to be great although I haven't heard anything yet. They have a myspace but myspace is blocked at work. Anyone fancy checking them out on my behalf?

[Jondur]

**** you :mad:

:(

Have you heard the new Gates of Slumber Jon?

Not yet. It's supposed to be their best yet. I'll pick it up on Thursday.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

It is very good. I haven't given it enough listens to compare properly to The Awakening yet, but things are looking up.

[the2stranger]

I'll check Lamp Of Thtoh out for you, If you won't pass me on the left side anymore ;)
haha.

np: Skepticism - By Silent Wings

EDIT:
My new sweeties should arrive shortly too.
Ahab - Call Of The Wretched Sea
Comatose Vigil - Not A Gleam Of Hope.
:)

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I'm pretty sure Jondur is from England...

[Patrick O)))]

I bought that Altar today, as well as Duck Stab by The Residents

HMV staff discount ftw :cool:

Got a lecture now so I wont bother putting it on for these 2 minutes, I'll give a good listen tonight ^-^

[Patrick O)))]

I'M LISTENING TO IT!!!

The Sinking Belle (Blue Sheep) pretty well pwns

[the2stranger]

^
I love that song, it's so mellow. :lol:
A song you want to listen to during a romantic candlelight diner.

The mailman still hasn't delivered my cd's which were supposed to be delivered today.
I don't hope anything went wrong. :mad:

[AlienEater]

What are you getting?

[the2stranger]

Comatose Vigil - Not a Gleam Of Hope
Ahaba -Call Of The Wretched Sea.
And some black metal cd's.

EDIT:
It arrived. :D

I love unpacking them and smelling them.
reviews later on :)
I can already tell you the COmatose Vigil is awesome, cause I've had it before, just not an original copy.

[AlienEater]

Smelling? that's odd.

[the2stranger]

Smelling the booklet and the cd is so great.
I just love the 'new' smell.

Let me listen to Ahab now :cool:

[AlienEater]

Never!

[the2stranger]

I'm loving the Ahab.
np: Old Thunder.
:cool:
It's really dark and heavy.
I love how they put the atmosphere of the story into the music.

[pate]

I'll have to check out Ahab.

[Txus]

I only have the Oath demo (Talking about Ahab) and it's great.

[the2stranger]

I'll have to check out Ahab.

Yes you have to, it's great stuff.

I think I shall doom up an issue of the DU soon. :cool:

[Daven]

So i was listening to Not A Gleam Of Hope yesterday, and i noticed its my favorite FD album.

Good buys Pete-

[pate]

I can't wait for the doomed-up issue.

[Patrick O)))]

OMG Desert Sessions ... :D:D:D:D

Not long now ...


if all goes according to plan, I'll tell you wtf in a few hours

[Sleepy]

I can't wait for the doomed-up issue.

Ohhhh, I haven't heard about this. I'll glady contribute if needed.

[AlienEater]

OMG Desert Sessions ... :D:D:D:D

Not long now ...


if all goes according to plan, I'll tell you wtf in a few hours

What plan? The DS are cool.

[ATM]

Been listening to Starchild and High On Fire. 2 awesome bands.

[Nepenthe]

I don't find High On Fire all that great, or at least not worthy of the hype they're given.

[Txus]

High On Fire are ace.

[Shattered_Future]

High On Fire are pretty cool, from what little I've heard of them (which pretty much consists of that one song they contributed to Tony Hawk's Underground).

[Nepenthe]

People are calling them the greatest thing to happen to Stoner Metal, which they are far from. They're actually pretty average for the genre, there's plenty that do it much better.

[Shattered_Future]

Greatest thing to happen to stoner metal, hardly. They're not terrible though.

[Txus]

I think they are good, not the best Stoner Metal band though. That's nonsense.

[Patrick O)))]

What plan? The DS are cool.

3&4 were on ebay, I've got all the others :(

I didn't win :upset: they went for 55 pounds, which is much cheaper than I've seen them go for, but still

I really really want the Earthlings? songs from it, particularly At the Helm of Hell's Ships

[Patrick O)))]

People are calling them the greatest thing to happen to Stoner Metal, which they are far from. They're actually pretty average for the genre, there's plenty that do it much better.

Kyuss win that, hands down.

[Sleepy]

High on Fire's a fun band. Nowhere near the best stoner band ever, but it's honestly great party music.

[Kage]

High on Fire are average at best.

[pate]

I've only heard Blessed Black Wings, but it's a good listen. Best thing ever, no, but not worst thing ever either.

[AlienEater]

3&4 were on ebay, I've got all the others :(

I didn't win :upset: they went for 55 pounds, which is much cheaper than I've seen them go for, but still

I really really want the Earthlings? songs from it, particularly At the Helm of Hell's Ships

I have them all, but I didn't realize they were worth that much. Wait, CD or vinyl? It's a shame you didn't
win, it's pretty good. Earthlings? rule.

Oh and HOF are cool. Their 1st is my favourite.

[Patrick O)))]

It was on cd. The worst thing really is that 3&4 seem to be the most sought after. The price it goes for on ebay has for some reason shot up lately, whereas the others are about thirty pounds

I also really want the Kyuss debut, but that goes for five hundred easy

Which Earthlings? would you recommend trying to get first? I got a couple off their myspace, Nothing being my favourite

In the end I didn't buy anything for myself today but I had loads of birthday presents to get so I got them.

[AlienEater]

****, I guess most Man's Ruin stuff goes for a lot as well.

Definitely get the first Earthlings? album (s/t) if you can, it's by far thier best. "Nothing" is on it too.

[Patrick O)))]

:eek: sweet. I'll try and find it

Yeah, MR's ****ing cool though. I want the hellcat logo thing as a tattoo

[AlienEater]

It's a pretty cool logo.

[Phototropic]

High on fire are in no way the best

They're hardly even stoner, more like thrash sludge, frickin awesome band, love em, but not the best

as Paddy said...Kyuss are :D

or Bomb the Sun

[Txus]

I listened to the Bomb The Sun album yesterday, freaking sweet.

[Patrick O)))]

Kyuss r in ur cd playaz

beein teh orsumz

[rhcp pman]

Been listening to Starchild and High On Fire. 2 awesome bands.
Starchild kicks some serious ***. Somehow (I don't know how), they were one of the first stoner/doom bands I ever heard. Still liking them to this day. :thumb:

[AlienEater]

I listened to the Bomb The Sun album yesterday, freaking sweet.

Guess they're worth checking out, eh?

[Txus]

Yes, they are.

[metal-militia]

Saw Reverend Bizarre on Saturday in Camden, did anyone go?
Got in late and missed most of Sloth's set which was a shame as I really like thier album. Centurions Ghost were ok, haven't heard too much of thier stuff though. Gates of Slumber were fantastic as were Reverend Bizarre. I can't remember all the set but they played some of my favourties (Doomsower, In the Rectory of the Bizarre Reverend) and finished with Doom over the World. Superb! :chug:

[Kyle]

I moved to Wales, I miss all the shows now :upset:

Where was it? Underworld?

[metal-militia]

Yeah it was. Last UK date too.

[Kyle]

Argh, that's a great venue aswell :(

I see Josiah are playing at the Underworld tonight aswell, have you heard them? they're pretty good. They have an amazing local band called Jecano doing a support slot, everyone should check them out.

Josiah - http://www.myspace.com/josiahukrockers
Jecano - http://www.myspace.com/jecano

Jecano are my favorite local band, i've seen them quite a few times, and probably whored them in this thread once or twice. Anyway, listen to the song Hilltop Hanging if you get a minute.

[metal-militia]

Yeah Josiah are pretty good and I wouldn't have minded going. Church of Misery are playing on Tuesday which would have been great to see, and I think Sourvein are playing too.

[Kyle]

Yeah they are, I saw Sourvein there a few months ago. They played with Orange Goblin, Old Crone and Jecano, and they kinda got overshadowed to be honest.

[metal-militia]

I was thinking of going to that, was it good? I've been meaning to go see Orange Goblin, I love their old stuff.

[Kyle]

It was a fantastic gig. I wasn't sure what to expect from Orange Goblin, but they really impressed me. They sound much better live than on CD.

[CabbageStabbage]

Anyone like Ataraxie? I heard some stuff, it's pretty great. Doom with some fast death metal parts.

[Daven]

Ataraxie is pretty good.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

blah blah yeah i saw reverend bizarre blah blah

**** you!

anyway I got The River's album. It's great :D

[metal-militia]

blah blah yeah i saw reverend bizarre blah blah

**** you!


Don't be bitter Jon, I cant help it if no good bands want to come to your convict desert island. :thumb:

Nice one for picking up The River though

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Don't be bitter Jon, I cant help it if no good bands want to come to your convict desert island.
No good Cricket teams want to come here either =[

Only a couple of weeks now :D

[rhcp pman]

Yeah, I like Ataraxie - another good French band. :D


I'm moving down to Auckland next year for uni. Can't wait, because I'm finally going to be able to see some metal concerts.

[the2stranger]

Anyone like Ataraxie? I heard some stuff, it's pretty great. Doom with some fast death metal parts.

I like them quite a bit.
It's weird to hear a sudden blasbeat with these funeral doomsters. :lol:
Still it's sounds ok.
I missed their performance yesterday. :(

my mates band Suns of thunder play with Jecano a fair bit, I haven't actually got into them that much to be honest

hey fellow wales dweller

[Kyle]

Hey man, I can see why it might not be your thing. I still love them though, but it might only be because the local scene was so bad in Berkshire.

There was a review of the Bomb The Sun EP in the Cardiff Students magazine today, it got a 9/10 :D

[the2stranger]

I really enjoy the Bomb The Sun, so it's well deserved to get a good score.

On the stoner topic: I listened to Sleep - Dopesmoker yesterday.
Remains one of my favorite stoner releases.
I love his guitar tone when he plays the bluesy solos.

[AlienEater]

I'll check out Bomb The Sun then.

[Jondur]

This thread needs to turn up the doom. Too much funeral and stoner nonsense at the moment.

*facilitates the doominess*

There's nothing wrong with funeral doom!

Good song.

You don't like funeral or stoner doom? Or you only like it in moderation?

[the2stranger]

Assuming this band is called Eternal Solitude, I get a doom/death profile on M-A. :confused:
Not doom/death sounding to me.

Great band though. :)

It's a Solitude Aeturnus song :).

[Jondur]

Its a demo track off the new album (to be released soon). Sounds pretty good - but I'll wait to hear the full album before I pass judgement.

I'm off to Belgium on Friday to watch Reverend Bizarre, Mirror of Deception, Semlah, The Gates of Slumber, The River and a few others. Should be a good do.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Sounds like a good gig. I got The River's full-length recently, it's top stuff.

[Jondur]

I think it's the best thing they've done (even without me on drums!) - "If Only" has some of the best riffs this side of the mighty Celtic Frost.

I'm looking forward to seeing them live from in front of the band! We were getting to be a really good live band - by the time we did Doom Shall Rise we were crushing - so I'm hoping that their gigging hiatus won't have made them rusty.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Yeah, it's really great. A Close Study is probably my favourite.

That new SA didn't sound too bad either.

Of course it doesn't. :p

Ghent. At The Frontline.

Ahh really?! Can i get a scan of that? I'd love to see it, glad to see they're getting recognitionI havn't got a scanner with me right now, but I'll work out a way of getting it on my pc. Might take a picture of it or something.

I'm really enjoying Altar right now.

[Patrick O)))]

I bought the new Isis today

[the2stranger]

The cd?
How is it?

np: Isole - Autumn Leaves
\m/

[Patrick O)))]

I believe so: In the Absence of Truth

It's pretty good so far

[Phototropic]

In the absence of Truth is awesome, I should really buy the CD though

I just downloaded Deliverance by Corrosion of Conformity

godamit Albatross is such an awesome song, the vocals are amazing

[Txus]

In the Absence of Truth is my favorite Isis album so far.

[Bartender]

anyway I got The River's album. It's great :D

Crap, I still don't have that.

I'll go look into ordering it now.

[Kyle]

Albatross is my favorite Corrosion of Conformity song, it's so great on their live cd.

[the2stranger]

Anyone seen the Isis dvd?

I'm curious about that too.

np: ahab - Below The SUn

Great Doom issue yesterday. :thumb: Lots of stuff I didn't have on there.

[the2stranger]

Indeed.
I loved the issue too. :)

np: Mar De Grises - El Otro
Hell yeah'\m/

[pate]

The double Sahgage made it legendary.

[magicbus]

Anybody listen to Khanate or Mare? There's some doom stuff.

And are the Melvins considered stoner rock?

[Kage]

Mare is great, Khanate...I have mixed feelings about.

Actually, I'm wearing a Mare shirt right now. :cool:

Melvins are gods in many stoner rock circles, so I'd say yes.

[AlienEater]

I love the Melvins.

[Sleepy]

I downloaded Senile Animal, I still need to get around to listening to it.

[magicbus]

Cool. Yea I'm diggin' the Melvins, the new one is pretty cool.

[Sleepy]

Cool. Yea I'm diggin' the Melvins, the new one is pretty cool.

I'll have to check it out then. If they're anything at all like Spiritual Beggars I'll probably love it.

[pate]

Spiritual Beggars is killer.

[AlienEater]

They're pretty cool.

[Bartender]

They* don't sound much like Melvins, though.

EDIT for accuracy: *that one Spiritual Beggars song I heard some four years ago.

[pate]

Right. They're better than the Melvins. :p

[AlienEater]

Hell no!

[pate]

I'm not too big on the Melvins.

[AlienEater]

I guess I am.

[Sleepy]

Right. They're better than the Melvins. :p

Blasphemy!

Although Spiritual Beggars are quite good, The Melvins are gods of the genre.

I was listening to Kyuss all through one of my tech classes today. The program I wrote acted as if it was completely stoned in consequence.

[Nuke Broadcast]

so i just found this wonderful band by the name of Zebulon Pike. methinks you fellows should locate songs by this group.

[Sleepy]

I'll start browsing.

Zebulon Pike was the name of an American frontiersman in the 19th century. Fact.

Oversoul, anyone?

[AlienEater]

So, uh, what's the deal with that stoner rock?

[pate]

I'm almost done listening to Wall of Sleep "Sun Faces Apostles" It's really good.

[niobium]

I should buy Clearing the Eye. It's sitting in a store a mile away right now.

My last downloaded stoner albums are Kyuss - ...And the Circus Leaves Town and The Sword - Age of Winters.

[Sleepy]

Two very good albums.

Does anyone have any Giant Squid I can steal from them? I heard them on Sirius a few days ago and haven't been able to find an upload anywhere.

[Freezing Moon]

I'm listening to Winter right now. They're great.

[Danger Bird]

After listening to Kyuss's Blues for the Red Sun a few times, I've decided I like Kyuss, but their singer is a little annoying.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I'm listening to Winter right now. They're great.
Yeah, they're great.

[niobium]

I don't like John Garcia sometimes either. It's best when he lets the band jam for extended hours (see: Desert Sessions)

[Jondur]

Oversoul, anyone?

Yes please! Great band - I love em!

Just got back from the Belgium Doom Night - I don't feel too good!

Bands of the night for me were Semlah, The River (who played fantastically) and The Gates of Slumber. Mirror of Deception were also excellent, as were Reverend Bizarre.

[superpeer]

Ghent. At The Frontline.

Ah yes. /late

I don't live there, though I've gone there for concerts, I think.

Belgium doom \m/

I've been meaning to check out Semlah. I know a guy on DC++ who has some of their stuff, but I keep forgetting to get it.

[the2stranger]

So I'm listening to Lamented Souls.
Gotta love Simen's vocals.
Great music.
Very good stuff!

[pate]

They're really good.

[blacbloc]

gotta love ****in

sleep
eyehategod
isis
neurosis
high on fire
bongzilla
noothgrush
the sword

[pate]

Sleep, Isis, Neurosis, High on Fire, and Bongzilla are great.

[TojesDolan]

Reverend Bizarre is really good. I still don't get some Cathedral songs that are a bit less doom-esque. Then again, it could be their older days... thingie.

[Sleepy]

Sleep, Isis, Neurosis, High on Fire, and Bongzilla are great.

You forgot to mention The Sword. That stuff is catchy.

I'm downloading the Giant Squid album right now. I heard one of their songs on satellite radio and loved it, so hopefully this will be a strong record! :thumb: I'll post back in a while when I'm done listening with a link and the verdict.

[pate]

Ehh...I don't like The Sword that much.

[Sleepy]

Ehh...I don't like The Sword that much.

It's understandable, I suppose. But I like them.

However, if you don't like this Giant Squid, I think I may have to administer your arse to a mental hospital. :amaze:

[Smackers]

I don't care much for the Sword, but they did have a fun live show.

[Jondur]

I don't live there, though I've gone there for concerts, I think.


Its a dump. Which is good.

You should have come down - I would have bought you a Duvel before drunkenly slurring in your ear and then falling over. It would have been fun.

[AlienEater]

It's understandable, I suppose. But I like them.

However, if you don't like this Giant Squid, I think I may have to administer your arse to a mental hospital. :amaze:

I just ordered it.

And I think the Sword are strictly average.

[the2stranger]

I'm listening to Tyranny roght now, anyone else like them?
Great funeral doom, very very very heavy atmopshere.

Finlanfd is the number one country for FD. :p

[Sleepy]

I just ordered it.

And I think the Sword are strictly average.

It's some pretty cool stuff, you'll probably enjoy it. I'm beginning to question whether or not they even fall under the Doom category, but oh well.

I guess I'm really the only Sword fan here. I think they're way catchy, really fun to listen to.

[CabbageStabbage]

Is Nortt good or well known? I've heard a song or two from that guy. His ideas are crazy though. He's all "Death is the answer to life's problems"

In doom-related news, I passed a lot of time in my philosophy class by desk drumming a very, very slow doom beat. Bass... Hats... Snare... Hats... One bar of that takes 15 seconds. That's 16 BPM, haha. What's the slowest doom song out there?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I've got Nortt's first full-length, it's alright. I haven't listened much, though. If you're into Funeral Doom or Black Metal I would check them out.

[AlienEater]

I can't wait for it to come. I imagine it'll be cool.

I like the Sword a lot!

I'm trying to see them in December.

[Kyle]

I think they're pretty cool.

but they're great live, so go see them.

[Sleepy]

That sounds like it would be a fun show, I'll probably check their tour dates soon to see if they're dropping by Las Vegas anytime soon.

[Nepenthe]

The Sword are awesome. Barael's Blade through Winter Wolves will kick a person's ***.

Nortt is pretty good stuff.
His take n life is so in line with the music he makes.I love his guitar tone.

I'm slowly collecting the Clutch catalogue :cool:

And I've loads of Brant Bjork on order at work, and the Earthlings? debut's on it's way off ebay

Productivity during ban'd time++

[Txus]

Clutch are amazing :)

I've been listening to a lot of Kyuss and QOTSA lately, good stuff.

[pate]

Kyuss is the best thing ever.

[the2stranger]

Kyuss > QOTSA
I'm not really in a stoner mood right now though, more in a funeral doom modd. \m/

[pate]

I'm never not in a stoner metal mood.

[AlienEater]

I'm rarely in a stoner or doom metal mood anymore.

[Sleepy]

It's such great music, doesn't matter if you're angry or happy or stoned as hell already.

Kyuss is basically the opus of Stoner.

[Nostalgia]

Can anyone link me or send me though AIM Turn Loose The Swans by My Dying Bride? It'd be much appreciated. I have the album on CD, but can't put it on my computer. A link or AIM transfer would be awesome.

Here's my e-mail:

[Nostalgia]

Awesome! Thanks tons, man.

[Sleepy]

So, yeah. Giant Squid.

Amazing.

[ATM]

I'm getting that now :)

[AIRIC]

Are Old Man Gloom a doom metal band?

[the2stranger]

More sludge like, but they can be discussd in this thread. :)

So I'm Listening to SKepticism - Farmakon right now, I love how these guys create such a sick atmopshere.
Stormcrowfleet is great, but compared to their later work it sounds a bit flat.
Anyone else love this pioneering funeral doom band?

[Sleepy]

I only have Stormcrowfleet, but I think it's pretty damned good.

[AlienEater]

OMG are really good.

[the2stranger]

I only have Stormcrowfleet, but I think it's pretty damned good.

It is pretty ddamn good I totaly agree, but Farmakon has more variety and creates a totaly different atmosphere, really sick sounding at times.
Stormcrowfleet is almost ambient sounding to me at times.
I live to listen to it right before I go to sleep.

np: Corrupted - El Mundo Frio
( I love these Japanese sludgers \m/ )

[Txus]

np: Corrupted - El Mundo Frio
( I love these Japanese sludgers \m/ )

They have great lyrics, besides that...I can't stand them.

[the2stranger]

I can't understand a thing of their lyrics. :(
I love their music though. :p

I hope I'll get their cd's for x-mas.
:D

[Txus]

My friend has 1 and the artwork is really neat.

[the2stranger]

Steal it from him and send it to me.

<_<

>_>

haha.
Yes the artwork looks great.
I love the black and white style.
If only their cd's weren't so hard to come by and so expensive.

Anyone familair with Mouth Of The Architect?

[ATM]

I really like the Giant Squid album that was uploaded to the DU. It's really cool.

[the2stranger]

I'm listenng to Novembers Doom right now, I'm seeing them the 17th.
I'm not actually going for them, Agalloch is supporting them so that's why I'm actually there.
I never cuaght the fuzz about ND so I figured I should relisten the album before I go to the gig.
The experience is always better when you know the songs that they play (imo) and who knows, matybe it will click now and I will love them.

Any fans of ND?

[SubtleKike]

i am a big fan of doom metal

[the2stranger]

What are you're favorite bands?

np: Runemagick - Monolithic Death

[SubtleKike]

my favourite band is probably Runemagick

[AlienEater]

I got the Giant Squhd album, it's really good, but I find the singing really annoying.

[SubtleKike]

yeah me too his voice annoys me

[AlienEater]

It's kinda like ... that guy from System of a Down and is therefore extremely irritating.

[SubtleKike]

yeah like rawr

[AlienEater]

I suspect you.

[SubtleKike]

suspect me of what :(

[AlienEater]

I'm not sure.

[SubtleKike]

i dont like being suspected :(

[the2stranger]

add to the discussion, don't just agree with everyone and no one will be suspicious about you.
GO!

I'm not really liking the Runemagkick all that much.
His vocals are weird and I'm not really liking hte production.

I will put on some other doom right now. :p

[AlienEater]

i dont like being suspected :(

Then don't be suspicious.

[the2stranger]

I'm remaining in doom territorium with my current np:

Jesu - Your Path To Divinity.

It's a long time ago since I last listened to this, I forgot how great it was.
It's really emotional music.
Sludge/post metal stuff. :)

[SubtleKike]

add to the discussion, don't just agree with everyone and no one will be suspicious about you.

i was playing doom 3 earlier and it is fun but gets boring after 10 minutes tbh

[RetiredAt21]

Witty. :rolleyes:

[the2stranger]

So on the 15th of december Pantheist will play a gig near where I live
I'm going. :D

[AlienEater]

People play in the Grim and Frostbitten Graeveland?

So I listened to Come My Fanatics again and it's really good.

[the2stranger]

Not exactly there, but in Tilburg, the Netherlands. :p
And I checked, the entrance is free. :D
How awesome.

[Kyle]

So there is a new Stoner supergroup in the making. Nebula just posted this Myspace bulletin...

To all Nebuloids here and beyond, this is a public announcement:

I Ruben Romano of total sound in mind and in body pursue exactly just that.....SOUND!! I find myself riding on an Event Horizon ready to pass through into the next vortex and will bring forward to cast onto you but a new conglomeration of FREEKS! I join forces with three exceptional focal points to complete the new triangle not only in thought & sight but more importantly in the main principles of OUR pursuit......SOUND!! As a new eye in the pyramid, a new vision come to focus, a new Optical Sound to float upon. Thus, Janurary marks the commencement in capturing these sounds with my long time brothers John Mcbain(Monster Magnet/Wellwater Conspiracy), Scott Reeder(Kyuss/Across the River), Isaiha Mitchell(Earthless) and my longest time brother and friend Mark Abshire in tow. We enter "The Sancturary" together as individuals and will exit together as one whole, a new legacy, we are "The Freeks"

I wish my Nebulinian brothers Eddie and Tom the best in thier pursuits as they have given me their blessings in return, I am and will always be NEBULA in my heart and in my soul, this truth can not be denied! We will meet again my friends....we will meet again for sure!

The Freeks Myspace profile is now up but pretty naked at the moment. However, construction is up and running with more info on the Freeks sanctuary session as the time draws near. It's gonna get freeky my people. You just gotta wait and see.

peace and love to all!!!!

R.R.John Mcbain, Scott Reeder, Mark Abshire and Ruben Romano in the same band. Sounds hot!

[Nuke Broadcast]

Anyone familair with Mouth Of The Architect?

yeah, and theyre kinda..hit or miss, i guess. long *** songs, too

[AlienEater]

Mouth of the Architect are good.

[Bartender]

Are Novembers Doom any good?

[Daven]

Novembers Doom is ok.

[Txus]

They are a bit boring.

[Shattered_Future]

I like them a lot. Quite atmospheric...they remind me a bit of Opeth crossed with a traditional doom band.

[Kage]

I've been whoring Mouth of the Architect for a long time and no one pays any attention.

[Txus]

I have :(

[Tyr]

Mouth of the Architect didn't appeal that much to me when I heard them.

[Sleepy]

Are Novembers Doom any good?

Of Sculptured Ivy and Stone Flowers is a good album, but they are kinda hit or miss with their other records.

[Shattered_Future]

I'm listening to something I swiped off the Daily Upload. I think Mike upped it...Fallen, the band is called. Pretty cool...I like the guy's voice. It's very Peter Steele esque.

[Sleepy]

I'm downloading as I type. It looks interesting.

Although most Doom looks interesting.

[Neoteric]

Are Forgotten Tomb good?

[Daven]

Very good.
