Any other Stoner/Doom metal fans?

[Shred Danson]

Come on, there has to be more than one stoner rock fan on this site.

Favorite bands:

Kyuss, High on Fire, Clutch, Neurosis...

There's more I can think of, but I'm too spaced out right now, but if you're a fan of the music, discuss.

[\m/Pete\m/]

Black Sabbath...

I love listening to them while im high

btw what passes for doom and stoner metal?

[Shred Danson]

High on Fire is pretty doom-ish.

[Burdcheese]

A friend of mine introduced me to Kyuss a few weeks ago

Great band.

[Shred Danson]

Yeah, I found out about Kyuss because they jammed frequently in my area. Josh Homme went to my high school, and the CD "Welcome to Sy Valley" is in reference to an unincorporated land that is near where I live called (what do ya know) Sky Valley.

[Deathcrush]

I am not too deep into the genres, but the more well known bands that I like are Kyuss, Electric Wizard, Weedeater, My Dying Bride and Anethema.

[Jondur]

OK - for starters there is no such thing as stoner doom. There is stoner and there is doom. They are very different.

Doom:

St Vitus
Solstice
Penance
Trouble
Candlemass
While Heaven Wept
Revelation

So yes I love doom metal. It is the music of gods. Right now I am listening to to Penance and it is making me very happy indeed.

Stoner is a pile of ****e.

(disclaimer: Kyuss are ok. As are Masters of Reality)

[ArcLite]

I'm not really into doom much other than Sabbath, but I'm a big Clutch fan.

[RideTheSpiral]

Candlemass are awesome.

[NJMetalMeister]

yes, candlemass are awesome, and the new novembers doom album is beyond excellent. So everyone should go get a copy of that right now if you are into doom.

[3rdplanet]

I'm a Kyuss fan.

Only really know a tiny bit about Doom, but I like what I have heard.

[Jondur]

Doom education:

Albums you must own:

Candlemass - Epicus Doomicus Metallicus, Nightfall
Revelation - Yet So Far
St Vitus - V
Solstice - New Dark Age
Solitude Aeturnus - Through The Darkest Hour
Trouble - The Skull

[Hevy Tred]

I love candlemass and My Dying Bride.

I own every MDB album 0_0 money well spent

[deadvoodoodoll]

doom metal is great.
i know this will probably sound dumb. but what the hell is stoner rock? is it bands that stoners listen to or are the band members stoners? someone told me pink floyd was stoner rock, but they also said primus was to. both band are bad ***(in my opinion anways) but they don't sound alike

[the2stranger]

I like doom metal quite abit

I really enjoy, my dying bride, and katatonia
I should check out a wider variety of doom bands tho

[id552]

I love Sky Valley. Great Album (Kyuss). Sabbath are good, so are candlemass.

[Jondur]

Stoner rock is happy, clappy, groovy music. It often has a "southern" feel to it. Check out Kyuss fora text book example.

[Jondur]

Here's some doom: http://deimos.curious.be/~FinalChapter/Finalchapter/samples/gos.mp3

And some stoner:
http://www.stonerrock.com/jukebox/Kyuss-One_Inch_Man.mp3

One is metal. One isn't.

(is southern)

[joe_fresh]

some quality doom metal bands/abums:

reverend bizzare - harbringer of metal
candlemass - epicus doomicus metallicus
solitude aeturnus - beyond the crimson horizon
doomshine - thy kingdom come
mood - slow down
well of souls - self titled
mirror of decpetion - foregone
aarni (well, sort of avant-garde doom, or something) - bathos
godsend - as the shadows fall
shape of despair - illusion's play
5ives continium research project (or i think it may just be 5ive) - self titled

stoner:
kyuss - blues for the red sun
agents of oblivion - self titled
deadboy and the elephantman - if this is hell then im lucky
karma to burn - almost heathen
sleep (doom as well i suppose) - sleep's holy mountain

[Shred Danson]

candlemass - epicus doomicus metallicus

Oh, god yes.

New High On Fire CD out soon...

[Iron Man]

I have some Doom, and I like what I have. It's not my top priority but I'd like to get more into this genre.

[joe_fresh]

anyone heard new candlemass album yet?, i have yet to get my hands on it

[Shred Danson]

I wasn't aware they had a new album out, I'll have to look that up.

[joe_fresh]

yeah, hasnt been out for very long. It is self titled

edit: turns out it has just come out today, if today is the 2nd of May

[Shred Danson]

(March, dude)

I gotta check that out...

[Throw.This.Away]

For good doom metal, check out Morgion.

[joe_fresh]

(March, dude)

I gotta check that out...

yeah, thats the one

also solitude aeturnus have got some new stuff on the way too, looks promising

[Shred Danson]

Hmm...never heard 'em.

[DreadCthulhu]

I like Cathedral, and I like Fu Manchu. What I've heard of Kyuss hasn't really grabbed me. Beyond that I haven't heard much.

[some_ones_bitch]

im lovein both of em, especially doom. thanks for the recommendations

[Jondur]

yeah, thats the one

also solitude aeturnus have got some new stuff on the way too, looks promising

That new Solitude Aeturnus has been on it's way for well over a year now! Last I heard, Rob Lowe had got over his surgery and had actually recorded some vocal parts! I am very much looking forward to this! In fact I can't wait!

Anyone heard Millarca? This is from a demo release in 1994 http://www.doommetal.com/miskatonic/millarca/millarca1-Behind_the_tombstone_demo1994.mp3

Tis good epic doom!

[br3ad_man]

Stoner is a pile of ****e.

(disclaimer: Kyuss are ok. As are Masters of Reality)


...Melvins?

[Jondur]

some quality doom metal bands/abums:

reverend bizzare - harbringer of metal
candlemass - epicus doomicus metallicus
solitude aeturnus - beyond the crimson horizon
doomshine - thy kingdom come
mood - slow down
well of souls - self titled
mirror of decpetion - foregone


Good choices!! Along with Orodruin and The Gates of Slumber, Reverend Bizarre are one the best new doom band around! And I'm proud to say that my band are playing with them in London later this month. Should be cool - they're a great band! Although Albert (Bass/Vox) has been known to wear nothing but a very small pair of briefs on stage!

If people want (and keep this thread alive) I can post a load of really good doom stuff for people to hear.

[Deathcrush]

I was all ready to purchase my first Skepticism CD, but drugs stole my money. :(

I am not too experienced with Funeral Doom, is Skepticism a good place to get into it, yes?

[Phototropic]

Kyuss
Electric Wizard
Sixty Watt Shaman
Masters Of Reality
Orange Goblin

:)

[Shred Danson]

Wow, that's awesome, dude.

Hey, this could be our own little "Doom Heads" thread :lol:

Do you have any MP3's of your band?

[Shred Danson]

Kyuss
Electric Wizard
Sixty Watt Shaman
Masters Of Reality
Orange Goblin

:)

Orange Goblin is alright.

Any Solace fans?

[superpeer]

Candlemass, Cathedral, Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride, ... :)

Good Stuff.

[Shred Danson]

I think I finally created a good thread...

[superpeer]

Usually these Doom Threads die after a couple of days, though. :(

[Shred Danson]

Ah, we can't let that happen.

We've got Jondur in this thread, he'll keep it alive with his doom expertise.

[superpeer]

So yeah... Anyone like the Melvins?

[joe_fresh]

That new Solitude Aeturnus has been on it's way for well over a year now! Last I heard, Rob Lowe had got over his surgery and had actually recorded some vocal parts! I am very much looking forward to this! In fact I can't wait!

has it?, could of sworn it hadnt yet come out. Then again i did think this month was may.

Thought of two more, they are bands started by candlemass's bassist: Leif Edling. They are Krux and Abstrakt Algebra, although they are both similar (ish), they are worth trying to find.

The Abstrakt Algebra i would say was the better one, though not by much.

[joe_fresh]

So yeah... Anyone like the Melvins?

love the melvins. Stoner Witch is my favourite album at the moment, and i reckon queen is their best song, his voice his quality on that song

[Shred Danson]

I haven't really given the Melvins a listen.

[Kosmos Tree]

Just listened to Solace in K666 Radio (provided by www.stonerrrock.com - great online radio if you're into stoner/doom ;) ), i liked it.

I'm really into Stoner Rock like Kyuss, Electric Wizard, Monster Magnet and Sleep.
Does anyone know "dust" from Germany? They are a pretty heavy Doom Band.

[Shred Danson]

Anyone know any good sites to download stoner/doom MP3's (Not like d/l programs or anything, just sites)?

My dad got me into Monster Magnet. "God Says No" is a pretty good CD.

[Kosmos Tree]

I prefer the older tunes like "dopes to infinity" or "superjudge", but Monster Magnet is definatly a killer rock band.

If you want to download stuff, check www.stonerrock.com, i believe they have plenty of mp3's there

[Phototropic]

Wow cool dad

I was listening to Powertrip last night

Great band

Their clean guitar tone is incredibley nice

[Shred Danson]

Dopes of Infinity, that's the other one I got.

[joe_fresh]

Anyone know any good sites to download stoner/doom MP3's (Not like d/l programs or anything, just sites)?

www.doommetal.com, got some full songs, and some clips of songs, althougth not for a wide range of bands.

[Shred Danson]

Cool, thanks.

[Jondur]

Do you have any MP3's of your band?

Of course! http://www.soundclick.com/bands/8/therivermusic.htm

We're playing with Orange Goblin too at an all day gig in Kingston in April. Most of the bands are stoner though. There's only us and Cambian Dawn who are really doom (although I haven't seen the fial line-up)

Joe_Fresh: What I meant was that the new SA album was supposed to be out ages ago but its been delayed for over a year!

Hopefully this thread will last a bit longer than the others. I'll have a bit of an uploading frenzy tomorrow and put some classic doom up for everyone to hear. But you've all got to promise to have a listen and feedback.

[joe_fresh]

k-town ontario?

[Phototropic]

Hey man your band's pretty good

*listens and loves*

[Jondur]

Matt: Close and it's not Kingston, Jamaica either. Sorry - it's in England. Basically a suburb of London. I resolve to be more clear from now on.

Glad you liked the track.

[joe_fresh]

i too liked the track

sweet, kingston is only just down the M4, a mere 100miles from me, hopefuly my exams wont have started by then

[MattyBlade]

Matt: Close and it's not Kingston, Jamaica either. Sorry - it's in England. Basically a suburb of London. I resolve to be more clear from now on.

:upset: there's no metal scene around here.

[Kyle]

Im quite into some stoner rock. If that includes like orange goblin, fu manchu and nebula, these are my top 3 stoner rocks unless i have the genre all wrong. Also Queens of the stoneage's older stuff is kinda cool.

[Shred Danson]

Jondur-Is there any way I can DOWNLOAD a song from you guys, this computer has no speakers, and I don't have the internet at home (loses at life).

[MattyBlade]

No, you need to have speakers to listen to music and you need to have the internet to download it to your computer with speakers. (unless you have a burner at work or something)

on a side note: what's the website to get a long user title :amaze:

[Jondur]

I will if i can.

[Jondur]

Right-O I'm off. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to post some links to some classic doom. That's if this thread hasn't dissappeared to page 97 by then.

[joe_fresh]

Anyone heard Millarca? This is from a demo release in 1994 http://www.doommetal.com/miskatonic/millarca/millarca1-Behind_the_tombstone_demo1994.mp3

Tis good epic doom!

its a quality song, anyone got any info on this band? website, anything?

[RetiredAt21]

I really like My Dying Bride and Candlemass.

[Phototropic]

Nebula rock

Someone else mentioned them

They are a good band

Although I couldnt listen all day long

[Kyle]

twas me :thumb: nobody seems to mention them on here so i dont know how well known they are considering i live in England. I can't listen to them for too long either but Eddie Glass is such a good guitarist considering he sings aswell. People should listen yo "this one" of the album "charged"...best song ever :D

I only have the album Atomic Ritual

I sent away for Charged with amazon.co.uk

It said it would take 6 weeks, 8 weeks later I got an e-mail saying their not going to send me anything :rolleyes:

I was pretty bummed out

Btw you can download a full live set on their website :) I've burned it onto a cd, tis great

[Shred Danson]

NP: Solace-Indolence

[3rdplanet]

Here's some doom: http://deimos.curious.be/~FinalChapter/Finalchapter/samples/gos.mp3

And some stoner:
http://www.stonerrock.com/jukebox/Kyuss-One_Inch_Man.mp3

One is metal. One isn't.

That Doom song is maybe the best thing since Black Sabbath, who is the band?!

[maggot4875]

all i really heard was black sabbath

atomic ritual is a cool album too. That sucks about amazon :confused: Im sure you can probably listen to "this one" on their website, if not i recommend you download, i love it so much :thumb:

[Give me Beer]

Oh oh, Doom and Stoner, that's right up my alley :)

Los Natas is the band I'd like to promote here, http://www.losnatas.com . Check 'm out, in my opinion the best rock group since, well, Kyuss.

Oh yea, and have you guys heard that Yawningman started touring again and recently released an album? For those not in the know, Yawningman was the first band of Alfredo Hernandez, ex-Kyuss drummer and ex-QOTSA, Orquesta del Desierto, with I think the guy from Fatso Jetson on guitar. They first recorded Catamaran, if you're a Kyuss fan you'll know that song. :) Check out the new track on stonerrock.com.

Rock!

[Txus]

kyuss is the best stoner / doom metal ever for me!!

[br3ad_man]

So yeah... Anyone like the Melvins?

...Melvins?

It's good when you read the whole thread :p

[RetiredAt21]

Hahaha, I love the Melvins. Didn't really ever think of them as stoner/doom metal though...

[drummerman]

My favorite stoner rock bands are kyuss and nebula.

[wearer of socks]

ive been obsessed with neurosis lately. Ive also recently purchased the candlemass dvd and i like it a lot.

[Jondur]

That Doom song is maybe the best thing since Black Sabbath, who is the band?!

That, my friend, is The Gates of Slumber. And yes they are amazing! Their debut album is called "Awakening" and it's out on Final Chapter Records.

[Jondur]

Ok, as promised here are some songs by some of the best bands in Doom Metal. I hope you enjoy them. Feedback and discussion would be good. I may post some more later depending on response.


Reverend Bizarre "Doomsower" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1WQ40USJ7NDMD20JGN7PJLJH4X)

This Finnish band are literally the hottest property in doom metal right now. And quite rightly so. Spot the Reagers style vocals and bass heavy riffs. A great live band too.


While Heaven Wept "The Drowning Years" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=31YYJZ456R5FY1AJ0LX0FZB3KW)

WHW are at the progressive end of Epic Doom Metal. They've been going ages and singer Tom Philips is one of the best around.


Candlemass "Under the Oak" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0NCDC35KG2UOG30OFTIZJAM8CZ)

Legends! If you don't like Candlemass, then there's quite frankly something wrong with you. From the debut album - they got even better when Messiah Marcolin joined.


Solstice "Cromlech" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0WD7CL2DSTY7W1NH5KK33U5BUC)

Solstice are one of my favourite bands. Its doom mixed with NWOBHM and it's ace!


Orodruin "Peasant's Lament" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2BJQWNF1CGP8Z2PJD75BNN6MM7)

Another new band who are great. Taken from their debut "Epicurian Mass" - old school doom holocaust!


St Vitus "Born Too Late" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3K76CN0S4N6J03I9BDZ83ZBVSF)

No discussion of doom can be undertaken without St Vitus!

[superpeer]

It's good when you read the whole thread :p

I did read that, actually, I just chose to remind everyone. :)

[Squirrel]

I have a bit of a liking for the Melvins, but i really have to be in the mood for them. I got into them after Fantomas strangely enough.

I also have 2 Cathedral albums, i assume they fall in this catagory.

[Jondur]

It depends which two you have! If it's the first two they fall into doom if it's any later then it's crap, sorry I mean more stoner.

[Squirrel]

Heh, I have Forest of Equilibrium and The Ethereal Mirror, so yeah, the first 2 :)


Whats Caravan Beyond Redemption like ?

[superpeer]

Listening to St. Vitus now. Weird guitar tone.

[joe_fresh]

That, my friend, is The Gates of Slumber. And yes they are amazing! Their debut album is called "Awakening" and it's out on Final Chapter Records.

Joe_fresh: I'm afraid I don't know anything about Millarca. I first heard them on a compilation album called "At The Mountains of Madness " (if you spot a copy on ebay - get it!) and someone kindly posted the two demos on another forum. Here they are:

http://www.doommetal.com/miskatonic/millarca/millarca1-Behind_the_tombstone_demo1994.mp3
http://www.doommetal.com/miskatonic/millarca/millarca2-The_shrine_demo1994.mp3

http://www.doommetal.com/miskatonic/millarca/millarca6-Carmilla_demo1996.mp3

sweet, cheers.

jondur: when you said your gig was on the 27th of march, you also said it was bank holiday monday, but it isnt, its a sunday. Did you mean the 28th?

Anyone heard any doomsword? I recommend the album let battle commence. Its quality.

[Stoic]

and this is a helpful thread as I know very little about doom metal. What I've heard so far is some old cathedral, solstice, solitude aeturnus, reverend bizarre and skepticism (which I found extremely difficult to get into). I'll check the links later today :)

[Jondur]

sweet, cheers.

You are indeed right - its the 28th not the 27th. Sorry.

Doomsword are ace!

[Davio El Dwarfo]

Check out LLAMATRON (http://www.llamatron.co.uk/media/O,%20Discordia.mp3)

They're probably more drone than anything else, but if you like Sunn 0))) or Khanate then they might tickle your fancy.

[MattyBlade]

You are good to me, but this school is going to make me an emo kid.




And Matt, there's a metal scene here HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

(rubs it in your face)

It's entirely an emo/screamo town here *shudders* the people are so emo "their wrists literally slit themselves"

[MattyBlade]

kyuss is the best stoner / doom metal ever for me!!


no shoes! just thongs!

[joe_fresh]

no shoes! just thongs!

no brains, no braun

[Shred Danson]

I've heard of them. They're pretty good :thumb:

[Kosmos Tree]

Heh, I have Forest of Equilibrium and The Ethereal Mirror, so yeah, the first 2 :)


Whats Caravan Beyond Redemption like ?

Forest of Equilibrium is awesome, definatly my favourite Cathedral album!

[superpeer]

Jondur: That Solstice song I downloaded was named The Keep, not Cromlech. I'm not sure which one it is though.

[Kurtz]

I can't believe Sleep hasn't been mentioned yet.
Check out Jerusalem by them, tell me if I'm wrong.

Best. Stoner. Band. Ever.

[manuscriptreplica]

Sleep have been mentioned. Thanks for the downloads, Jondur :thumb:

[DreadCthulhu]

What's the name of your band Jondur?

[manuscriptreplica]

it's called The River

[TheSubtleArts]

I can't believe Sleep hasn't been mentioned yet.
Check out Jerusalem by them, tell me if I'm wrong.

Best. Stoner. Band. Ever.

yup :thumb:

[Kosmos Tree]

There's an extended version of "Jerusalem" which is around 10 minutes longer and called "Dopesmoker".
I would check out "Sleeps Holy Mountain" first; Jerusalem is more of a trip ;)

[joe_fresh]

Here you are jondur, some feedback.



Reverend Bizarre "Doomsower" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1WQ40USJ7NDMD20JGN7PJLJH4X)

This Finnish band are literally the hottest property in doom metal right now. And quite rightly so. Spot the Reagers style vocals and bass heavy riffs. A great live band too.

(No downloading for me, already own it)
Quality band. Quality song. The best thing about this band is the way they do their epic songs (Cirith Ungol 20mins+) they just dont get boring. Unlike other bands such as sunn o))) and esoteric, they manage to engage me throughout the song.

The song doomsower starts straight away with a sweet Sleep type riff. This is then accomponied by Albert Mangus' fantastic voice. Like i said before, a fantastic song, by a quality band.



Candlemass "Under the Oak" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0NCDC35KG2UOG30OFTIZJAM8CZ)

Legends! If you don't like Candlemass, then there's quite frankly something wrong with you. From the debut album - they got even better when Messiah Marcolin joined.

(Already got this one too)
I'm not sure i agree with you here jondur. I reckon their best album was this one, althought nightfall is still a classic, i wouldnt say they got much better though.

The 1st 30 sec or so up to when the vocals come in a amazing. A sweet riff, with a quality solo/filler/riff thingy. And then Johan Lanquist comes in with some top bollocks singing, and the song gets better.



St Vitus "Born Too Late" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3K76CN0S4N6J03I9BDZ83ZBVSF)

No discussion of doom can be undertaken without St Vitus!

Guess what, i've lost this album!! After crying for 14 hrs i went off too look for it, cant find it. Gonna have to buy it again. AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH.



Solstice "Cromlech" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0WD7CL2DSTY7W1NH5KK33U5BUC)

Solstice are one of my favourite bands. Its doom mixed with NWOBHM and it's ace!

Good band, currently only own lamentations, which is an excellent album.



Orodruin "Peasant's Lament" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2BJQWNF1CGP8Z2PJD75BNN6MM7)

Another new band who are great. Taken from their debut "Epicurian Mass" - old school doom holocaust!

First time i've heard orodruin. Sweet intro riff, in fact, a sweet song. Good vocals, heavy guitars. Riffs sort of reminscant to candlemas but "fuller" (if you see what i mean). A nice black sabbathy solo. I think i will have to get this album.



While Heaven Wept "The Drowning Years" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=31YYJZ456R5FY1AJ0LX0FZB3KW)

WHW are at the progressive end of Epic Doom Metal. They've been going ages and singer Tom Philips is one of the best around.

A **** good band. Everything about them is good.

I thought i would add some more songs into the discussions. (Dont know how to upload music, if i work it out, i shall update this post as soon as i can)


Trouble - Trouble - Pyscotic Reaction

Normally i avoid christian bands like the plague. But not this one. This band is very black sabbathy, loads and loads of groovey bluesy riffs. (Althougth notably better singing). And plenty of excellent solos chucked in for ****s and giggles.


Pagan Altar - Volume 1 - Judgement of the Dead

After nice symph intro, a quality riff comes - (You have probably realised up to this point that my vocabulary mainly consists of quality and sweet, you're gonna have to bear with me) - plenty of solos in this song, plenty of nice riffs. Some nice nasally singing which gos perfectly with the music.


Doomshine - Thy Kingdom Come

This new band is definatley worth following up on. This album just blew me away. Cant really say much over the the usual sweet and quality, which doesnt do this album justice.


Mirror of Deception - Forgone - Ship of fools

Nice band this one, sort of like a laymans version of doomshine. Lots of nice simple riffs, with some good singing.


Nice, this post is longer then my A level physics coursework.

[Jondur]

Jondur: That Solstice song I downloaded was named The Keep, not Cromlech. I'm not sure which one it is though.

It was named wrong on the CD for some reason (ie the file name) - trust me it's called Cromlech. And it's an absolute belter!

[br3ad_man]

There should be more Melvins discussion in here.

[Jondur]

I'm not sure i agree with you here jondur. I reckon their best album was this one, althought nightfall is still a classic, i wouldnt say they got much better though.

Surely this the traditional doom arguement? Along with Reagers vs Wino!


Good band, currently only own lamentations, which is an excellent album.

Both "New Dark Age" and the "Halcyon" EP are excellent. Halcyon is closer to Lamentations - NDA has lots more uptempo NWOBHM moments.

First time i've heard orodruin.

Great, great band. One of the best new bands.

I thought i would add some more songs into the discussions. (Dont know how to upload music, if i work it out, i shall update this post as soon as i can)

So as always the doom thread dies......

To ressurect have a listen to these:

Doomshine "Shine on Sad Angel" (http://www.doomshine.de/files/sadangel_hifi.m3u)

Excellent epic doom.

Penance "SpiritualNatural" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0TWE2PMCJWP6R0IW6PHWZUKBHA)

It was me who mentioned it. The band is in fact one person called master warjooma or something. Thinking about it, avant garde probably isnt the right way to describe it. Probably experimental doom metal fits better. It has the odd bit of avant garde, black, folk put into it.

Its a very odd album, i dont think i can desribe it properly. But it is a very good album.

Out in May apparently. And by all accounts - it is amazing and the best thing since Ancient Dreams.

[the2stranger]

what is funeral doom exactly?
is it more depressing and dark than normal doom?

what bands would be considered good funeral bands to start with?

[Jondur]

Funderal doom isn't really doom in my opinion. It has it's roots much more in death metal - I certainly don't hear any link to Sabbath, Pentagram, St Vitus etc.

It is incredibly dark - usually very, very slow. Lots of keyboards, lots of screaming/growling, kind of a gothic hint with romantic type lyrics.

I'm not really a fan but bands like Until Death Overtakes Me seem to be good examples of that genre.

[Shred Danson]

Out in May apparently. And by all accounts - it is amazing and the best thing since Ancient Dreams.

Yeah, I was thinking about that because I'm heading out to the record store to get some CDs, but I wasn't sure if the new Candlemass CD was out yet.

wow jondur, revelation are awesome, i think as the days go by i enjoy doom more and more, which is a good thing, because if you talked to me a year ago or so, the only doom bands i liked were like Novembers Doom and Candlemass, but that has changed substantially since then.

On that song it was Victor Griffin (Pentagram) and Wino (The Obsessed, St Vitus). Wino's gone now and has been replaced by Dennis Cornelius (Revelation, Oversoul).

Feedback:

Doomsword - I think they're ace. I'm still praying that they play Doom shall Rise! Quality epic doom.

Karma to Burn - Sorry, I didn't bother listening. I've heard them a hundred times and they bore me.

Krux - this band contains Leif Edling. How could they be anything other than brilliant?

What song is that, the cover? It's interesting.

I'm wearing my Candlemass T-Shirt today, the one with the word "DOOM" on the back, and (no joke), some kid came up to me, said "Doom? You play that video game?"

That was a WTF moment.

World below "Sacrifices to the moon" is excellent. Not heard of this band before, i shall look into them. Although the singing isnt anything to write home about, still not bad.

Dont recognize the song candlemass covered.

[Jondur]

The song was "Countess Bathory" from "Black Metal". A good cover I think! Very different to say the least!

I'll add some more songs tomorrow. I think maybe a bit of Solitude Aeturnus, Some more Solstice, some Pentagram, some Trouble and maybe, just maybe some Unsilence.

Cheers for the Pagan Altar - great band. As you mightexpect from their vintage, they sit right on the NWOBHM/doom border. A great band none the less.

Don't be gay listen to:

Solstice "To Ride With Tyr" (http://s19.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=22YDMGKVA27U231DHU67L52KBD)

Epic doom featuring me hitting things:

Unsilence - A Walk Through Oceans (http://www.unsilence.co.uk/mp3/unsilenceoceans.mp3)

I mean it's not working at all, won't even connect to the server. It's not just that it won't find anything. The same thing happens with any others, as far as I can tell, on my other computer (at Uni). On this computer they usually work, but apparenly not now.

Hmm...I don't know what to say. Maybe you should uninstall it (but make sure you keep the files you've gotten) and reboot the computer?

Thanking you in anticipation

That's why I was lamenting my being on 56K in the first place. I want to listen to the Unsilence track (and the others, but that one especially), and it'll take me ages to download (especialy since they're doom, and so I'm assuming rather long). I'll download them eventually, but I'll probably wait til I've gone away from the computer to watch a film or something, and let it get on with it.

Any of you guys know of an album where the atmosphere is similar to that on Candlemass - Samarithan? You know how it's like depressing and uplifting at the same time. That would surely be the greatest album known to mankind, an album transcending all space and time to... yeah, ok, just start with the suggestions. :p

[the2stranger]

hhm this may sound rather weird, but a lot of doom metal isn't all that doomy and depressing to me.
does anyone know any doom metal bands like my dying bride, cause that band really makes me want to slit my wrists, and I like theri lyrics, very poetic :)

Well MDB aren't really doom metal, but the bands I always associate with them as similar are;

Forest of Shadows
Forest Stream
Katatonia

I bought the Cluth album "Blast Tyrant" and I am in awe over it, its one of the greatest stoner rock albums I've ever heard. Some of my other favorite stoner rock bands are Kyuss, Five Horse Johnson and Fu Manchu. Haven't heard any doom metal before, but I must check it out sometime soon.

[willis2441]

i like doom metal

[Poo Poo Pedestrian Concpiracy]

Southern Lord Records has a really good Doom/Stoner lineup. Has anyone heard of Teeth Of Lions Rule the Devine they are a good doom/stoner band with the one of the guitarists from Naplam Death. Ive listened to a couple songs by them and I really like them.

[Bartender]

I've heard of them, I think. Lee Dorrian's involved with them somehow, I think. I haven't heard them though.

[SSSnake...]

Yeah. I know them. Amazing collaboration of Lee Dorian, Greg Anderson, Stephen O'Malley and Justin Greaves. I really recommend 'Rampton' if you like extreme drone and extreme sludge. It's a really dark album, the first song is half an hour, with the first ten mintues dedicated to hypnotic drum patterns over a droning guitar. The last song is a Sunn O))) riff turned into an entirely new song. I got it on cd. One of the best slow heavy albums I've heard in a long long time. Obviously if you like any of the bands those guys are involved with, you'll probably like it anyways.

[Bartender]

Is Stephen O'Malley in High on Fire, or am I really confused?

[SSSnake...]

Stephen's the mastermind behind Sunn O))). He also play's guitar in Khanate, was in Burning Witch and Thorr's Hammer before that. A modern day legend to me.

Lee was in Napalm and Cathedral

Greg, guy that put together Goatsnake. Also plays bass (I think) for Khanate and Sunn O))), and Burning Witch

Justin Greaves was the drummer of Iron Monkey. He's now gone on to be the replacement skinsman for Electric Wizard.

Oh okay. Now I don't know who the guy in High on Fire is though.

[SSSnake...]

Lawlz Bartender. You might be thinking of Mike Pike, who does vocals for High on Fire.

[Jondur]

Well last night I saw Reverend Bizarre. This means that I am better than you. And at one point I was going to sound check with them as their drummer had gone awol! Unfortunately he turned up. I was well warmed up to do DoomSower!

[the2stranger]

[RetiredAt21]

Good bands never play around here. Lancaster sucks.

[SSSnake...]

my stoner/doom bandmate is from Lancaster. Go up there sometimes to jam. You have a band there?

(he always says about the lack of good gigs there too)

[Jondur]

Well I'm going to be joining the stoner crowds on Sunday. An alldayer with Orange Goblin, Alabama Thunderpussy and loads of others. We'll be the only metal band there! but we're playing early so at least I can avoid most of the boogie-woogie.

[Jondur]

Apparently we've got a guest book now so you can tell us that you love us!

Just heard them on the radio. Awesome epic doom: ISOLE

[MindlessPickle]

Have no idea if this band has already been mentioned but Fu Manchu rocks! They're so god**** great, any other fans of them?

[Jondur]

Just heard them on the radio. Awesome epic doom: ISOLE

Absolutely. They used to be called Forlorn. And they're playing at Doom Shall Rise and I shall be enjoying them very much!

Played a stoner all-dayer yesterday. It was terrible! God I hate stoner. They all sang in American accents despite being from East London or something. Stupid generic riffs and bouncy rhythms. Needless to say we went down badly for being far too METAL! But the songs they played between bands were ace, Solitude Aeturnus, Vitus, Trouble, Celtic Frost etc.

[bamboomonkey]

No one has mentioned Iron Monkey. Though they are more extreme stoner than doom, per se, they are proper top. Listen to them now or be a loser all your life. They're that good.

[Shred Danson]

NP: Clutch-Wishbone

Great stoner rock, Clutch is.

[Jondur]

[Riva]

Great song there by Candlemass. Off the new album, you say?

[joe_fresh]

aye

[Jondur]

It's called Black Dwarf.


smegheads

[ThrashHead]

All I know I like is High on Fire and Sabbath... I guess I'm doom-metal ignorant.

[Shred Danson]

Stick around, dude.

"Black Dwarf", eh? Looks like I'm shellin' out the 18 bucks for the new Candlemass.

[RockerGav]

Bumping...

All the doom expired before I could get to it....if someone could reupload or MSN me some that would be great, thanks. :)

[Jondur]

What's your MSN cos I can't be bothered uploading all those songs again - it takes ages and I am supposed to do some work now and again.

[Jondur]

Here's a bit of a gem for you. the band is called Colussus - I don't have any more information except that the singer is one Messiah Marcolin and this is from a rehearsal demo from 1996.

good song, shame theres no more info on them, sound like the would be worth following up.

Anyone else who wants to add me to talkabout metal or whatever else can, just explain you're from MX so I don't get all paranoid at weird random people adding me.

I listened to the Gates of Slumber track and really enjoyed it.

[Earache]

After Carcass broke up appearently Bill Steer went on to make the band Firebird, which is a stoner rock band, are Firebird any good, i heard they have alot more in common with Cream than Carcass

[Manticore Guy]

Kyuss is amazing The Law is the best song i have ever heard by any stoner band ever. AMAZING SONG! Listen to it if you haven't heard it

[Jondur]

Todays doom:

Burning Saviours "Spread your wings and fly (http://s51.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3EZ5IZD0PL1TA0FOENF8RQDF5U)

[RockerGav]

That didn't sound as......doomy as I had expected it to :confused:

/bump

[PaulRawNerve]

i totally love doom and sludge, like some stoner stuff although it depends on what the vocals are like..

for sludge - khanate, grief, goatsnake, crowbar (although a bit more metal), electric wizard, red right hand
for doom - bethlehem, sunn o))), early my dying bride, until death overtakes me, beyond, candlemass
stoner - queens of the stone age, kyuss, black sabbath..
nice

[PaulRawNerve]

"Black Dwarf", eh? Looks like I'm shellin' out the 18 bucks for the new Candlemass.

it's worth it, i got sent it a couple months back to review, and i love it, it ain't as good as some of their stuff, but certainly has enough for the fan..

[joebass]

I can never get enough of Kyuss, Clutch, High On Fire or The Obsessed.
All fantastic bands with such love for music

[Werny]

The only band described here (including Kyuss) that I've heard is Melvins. I had Pigs of the Roman Empire, and I've downloaded about a gazillion songs. Truly genius, I don't know about any of you guys but I've never heard anyone drum with so much force as Dale Crover, the guy is a madman.

So I have no idea what Doom is (yousendit don't work for me), except that Fantomas are described by AllMusic.com as Doom Metal. I also tend to like gothic music (gothic like The Cure, not gothic like Cradle of Filth), so I may have to try some of this stuff out.

[PaulRawNerve]

i can't believe i forgot to mention the Melvins!!
'houdini' is a work of genius all the way through.

[Jondur]

Paul as in ex-Tangaroa?

Just back from Doom Shall Rise. Am far too tired to type any more. Full details and possibly audio in a few days!

[Shred Danson]

Sorry I haven't posted here in a while.

So has anyone gotten the new Corrosion of Conformity CD, yet? It's called In The Arms of God. The lead single, "Stone Breaker" is alright, just not classic COC. I could care less for the drums, as well.

Jondur, does your band have a CD or any of that out?

[Jondur]

Yep. the new one is called "Different Ways To Be Haunted" - 3 tracks of doomy goodness. Check out the track on www.soundclick.com/theriver If you like send me an email on jonathon_gibbs@hotmail.com and I can give you ordering details.

[Bartender]

I still have to send you a cheque for a copy of that. Sorry :-/

Bitchin'. So it's just an EP? Yeah, I'll e-mail you when I move into my house this week, alright?

[Jondur]

I will email you my new address - don't send anything to that address as I move at the end of the week.
