I edited a comment about Katatonia in as well up there.

Also,

Retired; I gave Black Bile a listen. Quite good on the first listen. I was actually listening to Elysian Blaze prior to it and they are very similar in what they are doing. Some different tones there, I guess, but if you like Black Bile then you'd probably like Elysian Blaze as well. May I suggest you obtain [i]Levitating The Carnal[/i] for more of that Black/Funeral Doom type stuff, with a little clearer production.

[QUOTE]I really should check out early Katatonia. I keep seeing them come up in comparison to other things I listen to, but I've never given them a go besides The Great Cold Distance. I thought it was boring.

The new stuff is nothing like the old.
The old stuff (first album) is depresive black, the stuff after is doom/death and after that they evolved in to the more shoe gaze-ish/depressive rock sound they have now.
Dance Of December Souls and Brave Murder Day are highly recommended.

Call me crazy, but isn't shoegaze the complete opposite of what Katatonia sound like? :confused:

[QUOTE=Kage;15610757]Hey ATM do you have Sons of Otis' split with Queen Elephantine?[/QUOTE]

No, any good?

Also, I love Church of Misery. I only have one album but I need more.

[QUOTE=the2stranger;15610752]Listening to soe Forgotten Tomb.
I love the connections to early Katatonia and Burzum in the guitar work.
Damn tis **** is good.

Any other fans?

np: Forgotten Tomb - Todestrieb[/QUOTE]

I like them, and I even like the new one.

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future;15611090]Call me crazy, but isn't shoegaze the complete opposite of what Katatonia sound like? :confused:[/QUOTE]

Not exactly the opposite, but they do have some shoegaze elements to their sound.
It's quite difficult to categorize the new Katatonia under just one genre. :-\

Pate:
I wasn't keen on the clean vocals on the new release.
You like them?

I tend to just go with "good"

I was browsing through my music library for an album to play and stumbled upon Oktober Tide, it's been a while since I've played them.
Excellent music, especially with this weather/season.

np: 12 Days Of Rain

Too bad they broke up.

[QUOTE]Sons of Otis are tight.[/QUOTE]
**** yeah! I need that split though :(

NP: Acid Mothers Temple And The Cosmic Inferno - OM Riff from The Cosmic Inferno :cool:

I'm np the new Worship.

Nice.

I'm playing some Nadja, surprise, surprise. ;)

Anyway: I recieved some nice doom related CDs today:
Weedeater - God Luck And Good Speed
Corrupted - Se Hace Por Los Suenos Asesinos
Fallen - A Tragedy's Bitter End (limited to 1000 copies :))

I bought OM's discography :)

Good job.
:smoke:

I hadn't bought any CDs for some time, feels good to buy them now though.
Nothing like recieiving them, opening them up, smelling them, playing the CD and reading the lyrics/booklet.

Haha that's the first thing I always do too is smell the booklet.

There's always this special smell.
I can't help it.
I love smelling CDs. :p

Funny that you do the same.

np: Weedeater - God Luck And Good Speed (song)
:smoke:

Rofl, I have never smelled my CDs.

You smelled my ***, faggot.

Smelling a new CD booklet is pretty cool.

[QUOTE=Txus;15612610]You smelled my ***, faggot.[/QUOTE]

I was high on crack, give me a break.

That album owns.

I prefer the older one.

Katatonia talk itt.



AWESOME!!

Dance of December Souls is absolutely amazing. It was playing over and over for quite some time on my computer/iPod. Anyone who doesn't have it, get it NOW.

I have viva emptiness and uh something else

Do you like their newer albums as well?

I need to listen to them, I was only recently introduced to Katatonia.

Get on AIM then.

Newer is better, despite how good the first two are.

Guys one of my friends told me to listen to Pagan Altar, is this a good decision?

Absolutely.

Is there a certain album I should start with? Or should I just buck up and get everything.

I saw one of their albums get a review on MA and it sounded excellent.

I only have Volume 1, and it's great. So I say start there.

And I'm assuming you already know and hail Witchfinder General, because if not, you should go to them first.

boobies

So the new Worship is immense.

:)

[QUOTE=Angmar;15614490]Guys one of my friends told me to listen to Pagan Altar, is this a good decision?[/QUOTE]

Mythical & Magical is better then Volume One, 20 years of songwriting did these guys good.

Well just to be awkward 'Lords of Hypocrisy' is my favourite!

*Controversial statement alert!*

I'd put Pagan Altar on a par with Witchfinder General!

yesterday i bought

Om - Pilgrimage
Neurosis - The Eye of every storm

digging both of what I've heard so far

had Om on before i went to sleep, was in my own little world for the first track and then a few minutes into the second track i almost farted a load out when it went super fuzzy loud!!

:p haha

Brave Murder Day
Dance of December Souls (those screams... :eek: just amazing!!!)

and of course the old Anathema albums like Serenades and Pentecost!

dance of december souls is good, but not that good

i love it :p

Yeah, it's incredible.
