Which album did you get, The Maniacal Vale?

So far I got, Subconscious Dissolution Into and a song from Metamorphogenesis.

Both are ace albums, get the rest of Metamorphogenesis as well and of course The Maniacal Vale.

On it now.. Can you think of any other similar bands? Doom bands with more atmospheric melodies?

check out Worship, Mournful Congregation, Doom:VS, Shape of Despair, Colosseum for funeral doom with emphasis on atmosphere. Except Doom:VS is only a little bit funeral doom. but still good

Need some life-altering doom..anybody got a rec? I'm looking for a versatile vocalist and fantastic drummer...

Finally found Reverend Bizarre's last album, and it truly is completely amazing.

not sure if any of you guys saw this

Such a great album.

yarly

I'm pretty new to this genre, but it snapped me up as soon as I heard Kyuss for the first time (don't slap me, I was hibernating) a few months back.

I'll read through the thread and get a few more bands checked out - my boyfriend's a massive High on Fire fan, easy access to le tunage.

Kyuss one has on good album and even then its not that good. HoF is \m/ though

Band you should check out:
Sleep
OM
Candlemass
Saint Vitus
Reverend Bizarre
Pentagram
Witchfinder General
Trouble
Solitude Aeturnus (already mentioned)

Which album's that?

Blues for the Red Sun

Already got Sleep's Holy Mountain, muchly appreciate that fine bit of work, as for the others, duly noted danka.

Blues for the red sun was the first album I heard, and definitely my favourite. I have come across much better to be fair, but it's the album that tickled my fancy with the genre so I can't complain!

Question - has Jesu been mentioned anywhere here? I've been into pretty much anything Justin is responsible for over the last few months, and I'd consider a lot of Jesu to be pretty doom-laiden and melancholy but in a very bittersweet way.

Any thoughts?

Jesu full-lenghts are pretty awesome, but some of the eps and splits are kind of bad.

yeah, jesu is pretty popular around here. I personally love Jesu, silver, the split with envy and the self titled are my favorite Jesu albums I think...

If I had to choose one, it'd be Silver.

I love remembering when I first heard Jesu though, it was a cathartic experience.

Dude what about Adagio? Should be in that list.

That actually looks a bit poetic, that list. Yes, darkly poetic. You should call it Faustus. Me likey Faustus.

[I]Silver[/I]'s probably my favourite Jesu as well.

jesu sucks

If you think Jesu sucks, you should try lemons for that extra thrill.

[QUOTE=Ventriloquist;16584086]Dude what about Adagio? Should be in that list.[/QUOTE]

No way. It's decent, but not an essential SA album.

I like Into the Depths of Sorrow better than Through My Darkest Hour. I haven't heard Beyond the Crimson though.

[QUOTE=pate;16584428]No way. It's decent, but not an essential SA album.[/QUOTE]

Adagio doesn't have the songs of the earlier records, the production is just fantastic. THE doom production - the sound is so dense and powerful.

Usually I don't care too much about production but I can't think of a better produced album.

Agreed. Dunno I quite like that album.

About to interview Nadja, so if you have any questions, post them here.

What is Aidan's main motivation when writing for Nadja?

You listening Brian?

yes I am, 8 hours late, but still listening.

anybody heard of [B]Blood Ceremony[/B]? im really digging their self-titled debut that just came out this year. traditional doom/stoner album with female vocals and...yes...a flute player. it actually adds a nice touch. kind of reminds me as if Camel joined forces with a stoner metal band with a female singer. the keyboards are pretty nice too
