Age of Winters is one of the worst attempts at stoner doom ive ever heard. It is completely boring and unoriginal all the way through.

It's not supposed to be original. And it's not supposed to be stoner either, it's a straight up, unoriginal, no thought involved doom album.

I surely hope nippleheim isn't talking about something he doesn't know anything about.

Well, it is trash, whatever it is supposed to be.

Its an ok album, not something I ever really listen to though. =/

It's good for what it is. It's fun to listen to. No everything has to be profound and innovative, some stuff you just listen to because it sounds cool.

Ok, I know that. It doesn't sound cool at all. It is just plain boring. Witch is a perfect example of a fun, catchy stoner band.

They didn't become a stoner metal band in the 5 minutes since I told you before that they weren't.

Well, they are in no way traditional doom, so it is safe to say they are closer to the stoner doom side of things.

They're much closer to traditional than they are stoner. They have much more in common with Sabbath and Witchfinder than Sleep and Om.

The Sword album is ok. End of the story.

Witchfinder were pretty much a proto-Stoner band anyways. When I think of Traditional Doom I think Candlemass and Pentagram, which The Sword have nothing in common with. I don't really care what you or whoever else classifys them as, they have a sound that isn't a stretch to be considered stoner doom. The vocals, sound of the guitars and riffing is quite similair to stoner doom.

Mkay that's cool, but you're wrong.

No, im right. Either way, they're horrible.

Do you guys argue in every thread?

I think so.

The Sword are extremely average, but also extremely popular. :mad:

They aren't bad, just not amazing.

He says dumb things in every thread.

I speak with great truth and knowledge in every thread.

We should argue about that.

Ok, go.

Maybe later, I'm not in the mood right now. Keep that on our list of things to argue about.

No, you see Niflheim is simply trying to get us to see the truth. he knows everything and since we're all stupid he has to set us straight.

Yeah, im here to educate all the clueless people here.

Meh, The Sword bores the hell out of me. If I want Sabbath worship I'll listen to Sleep's Holy Mountain, thank you very much. :D

Or you can just listen to Black Sabbath. :p

Don't worry your work doesn't go unappreciated.

i find the sword boring, when i saw them live supporting clutch they were good, very powerful but they have no dynamics whatsoever so the whole

riff - fill - breakdown - halftime - back to first riff

gets really tiring after 2 songs, its like they use the same formula for every song, strange that they get more attention than other bands with more talent :(

I know, that is why I continue.

I also saw The Sword support Clutch. Everyone seemed to love them except me.

Exactly. It's good fun music.

And this is what pisses me off about them.
