I'll tell you one thing, it's way better compared to [I]Lullabies[/I].

Well I've not heard [i]Lullabies..[/i], so I couldn't say. I've heard the first one, and [i]Songs for the Deaf[/i] thanks to friends and sister, though. Maybe just because I own it myself, but I preferred [i]Rated R[/i].

I actually live in the city Josh Homme and Nick Oliveri were from. I point that out all the time, but hey...if somebody else lived in some famous band's hometown, I'm sure they'd point it out as well.

I still can't get over how much the drums suck on COC's "Stone Breaker".

i never heard of most of the bands mentioned lol

Here's a vintage JDZ song. 18 months ago I really sucked at guitar :(

(The Exodus)

Doom enough?

Jondur: I listened to A Close Study, its very good. How much is your 3 track EP?

Also, can you reccommend some similar sounding Doom bands?

I really enjoyed the track by Gates of Slumber that you posted, and I downloaded a couple of Candlemass songs (Epicus Doomicus Metallicus and The Bells of Acheron), didn't really take too much to them (yes blashphemy, I know), probably because of the vocal style.

[QUOTE=Bartender]Which CoC album did you get?[/QUOTE]

I bought Wiseblood, saw it going cheap so thought what the heck after having a few tracks downloaded may as well.

Check out [I]Deliverence [/I] and [I]America's Volume Dealer[/I]. Good stuff by COC.

I like AVD :)

[QUOTE=Jon]I like AVD :)[/QUOTE]

That's probably my favorite by them.

Do cult of luna creep into the doom bracket? The new Candlemass album is pretty cool.

This should interest some of you. New Pelican review up on sputnik for the March into the Sea EP. You should all hear at least the title track. Also, check out Mare. Excellent band (I also wrote that review earlier this week)

Can someone answer this:

^ My Dying Bride? (not really a Doom metal band)

From my brief meeting with Doom bands, I have deduced that the genre name is compltley off, as most Doom bands are influenced by Sabbath, and just make plain good old funs tunes...or I may be wrong.

But, Sabbath has one of the most dark/evil sounds.

Black Sabbath = Supernaut.

About as dark as a banana.

Listen to Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath, and some of their slow songs.

I just whant to know if theres any one that has heard of blind dog or grand magus and what they think of them I love em' I wish there where more bands like them.

reverend bizzare is my favorite doom band.

I'd just like to bump this post.....

[QUOTE=StandingStill]Do cult of luna creep into the doom bracket? The new Candlemass album is pretty cool.[/QUOTE]

Cult of Luna...eh, I'm not sure. I've only heard one song by them (can't remember which one) but I thought it sucked anyway.

Is the new Candlemass album already out?

It doesn't seem so. I can't find it for sale on places like Amazon, anyway.

I quite like Cult of Luna. They're not doom, though.

I know you're on Jondur.......:evil:

I'm here. But I'm usually not here when I am, if you get what I mean. I log on but I'm usually working not actually surfing.

Sorry - your questions:

The "Different Ways to be Haunted" demo is available for £2.50 send me an email at [email]jonathon_gibbs@hotmail.com[/email]

Bands you might like.... hmmm if it's the vocals of Candlemass you don't like well firstly you are a heathen but maybe try someone like Thee Plague of Gentlemen who have much more ballsier vox. Have a listen - but make sure you're sat down cos this will knock you down! [url]http://users.pandora.be/istari/tpog/mp3/greekfire.mp3[/url]

The Gates of Slumber are ace, as are Orodruin, Revelation are one of my favourite bands. Try those and then get back to me.

[QUOTE=StandingStill]Its out in the UK[/QUOTE]

Ah, bullocks. Bullocks, I say. When will it be available in America? Late May?

That thee plague of gentleman song is quality. As soon as i got more money i think i will buy it.

Aye - the album is called Primula Pestis and I've been playing it non-stop since I got it at Doom Shall Rise.

It seems to be available already on Amazon.com (as opposed to .co.uk).
