[QUOTE=Wotan]Is Anethema any good?[/QUOTE]
Opposite to Jondor, I like the new stuff better.
Very nice prog stuff with a lot of dark influences.

I don''t like the vocals on the earlier doom releases.

I'm still at the level of doom noob, so I haven't even heard Iron Monkey.[/QUOTE]

Iron Monkey aren't really that good, if I remember correctly. I checked them out when Johnny died. To be fair that was a while ago, maybe I'll have changed my mind.

americanfootball 06-23-2006 06:42 AM

Iron Monkey were amazing! I saw them once live as well, although the sound was really bad. They were a bit of a phenomenon when their first album was released, and got loads of press coverage.

Werny 06-23-2006 07:03 AM

Ah. I'll still check Iron Monkey out for all times sake though...they play sludge right?

Eyehategod are the best sludge band. The angriest music I've ever heard.

I've had it ordered for over 2 weeks now and apparently it's on back order so it'll be a little while before I get it. I'll just have to stick with El Mundo Frio for now.

_Tyler 06-23-2006 07:19 PM

I thought Electric Wizard were a doom band. My favourite sludge band is either Eyehategod or Crowbar.

ATM 06-23-2006 07:21 PM

I love Electric Wizard. I really do need to look into more in the stoner/doom genre.

I only really know Orange Goblin, Goblin ****, and **** like that.

_Tyler 06-23-2006 07:49 PM

I guess I was wrong about Candlemass, I've been listening to Nightfall and it destroys.

ATM 06-23-2006 07:50 PM

Ah yea I know some Candlemass, but I dont like the vocals too much :-/

_Tyler 06-23-2006 07:51 PM

I hated them at first because of the vocals on Epicus Doomicus Metallicus (different vocalist) but I like the other guy's vocals.

[QUOTE=the2stranger]Werny:

Hells yeah man, I've only got Subconscious Dissolution etc. though! It's a classic album but there's only four songs (one is an outro) so it feels kinda short.

That's why I wanna get their earlier albums, their first two were double disc and from the time when they were all taking arseloads of horrible drugs. Very psychedelic apparently.

[QUOTE=Kyle]Nuh uh, Electric wizard all the way.[/QUOTE]

I love the Wiz man, but Eyehategod are just violence incarnate. I think the Wiz's self titled debut is so underrated, it's so heavy and also has this really bizarre atmosphere to it (helped a lot by the cover art).
But I am questioning who is the best sludge band now, because I just got Melvins' Bullhead! Boris is BADA$$.

And I just heard Skin Horse by Melvins... I'll never look at chipmunks the same way, that is the freakiest thing I've ever heard.

[QUOTE=Tyler]I thought Electric Wizard were a doom band. My favourite sludge band is either Eyehategod or Crowbar.[/QUOTE]Hmm, I dunno, [I]Dopethrone[/I] is pretty darn sludgy, but some of their stuff sounds even stoner-ish. Crowbar own....

[QUOTE]I really do need to look into more in the stoner/doom genre.

I only really know Orange Goblin, Goblin ****, and **** like that[/QUOTE]Yeah, I'm just re-discovering my love for it. I've always been more of a stoner fan, but getting into a lot of doom as of late. I saw Orange goblin live earlier in the year, they were pretty awesome.

Werny 06-24-2006 12:32 PM

I'd call the Wiz's first LP doom and their other ones sludge. I love it when stoner elements are brought into sludge... Bongzilla comes to mind!

iceman3019 06-24-2006 01:33 PM

i like most stoner rock that comes out of california, namely sleep, om, high on fire, kyuss, and queens of the stone age (though they are arguably stoner), and i'm a fan of slooow, agonizing doom, like asunder, graves at sea, etc . . .

I've never understood why people call them stoner. Just because Josh Homme was in Kyuss doesn't make them stoner.

ATM 06-24-2006 02:13 PM

I think they have stoner rock elements though.

A_Guy 06-24-2006 02:21 PM

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]I think they have stoner rock elements though.[/QUOTE]Well, on their debut album specifically. But as a whole, I'd say they're not stoner.

jewelz78 06-24-2006 02:26 PM

Ok I'm sure this is about impossible because I dont know the artist but it was about 4-5 years ago its the alternative genre infact i was sure it was audi slave but I've been through there albums and found nothing. Its a song about a woman who ends up pulling a gun on a guy and i belive thr poinent part of the song is when she shoots him ? and no its not nickleback but similar type of song ...Ok well hope to get some hits on this

1. WTF are you talking about?
2. Why are you talking about Audioslave and Nickelback in the Stoner/Doom thread?

iceman3019 06-24-2006 03:12 PM

[QUOTE=A_Guy]Well, on their debut album specifically. But as a whole, I'd say they're not stoner.[/QUOTE]
i'd also say that there's plenty of stoner elements on [I]rated r[/I], but they die down on [I]songs for the deaf [/I]. . .

Kyle 06-24-2006 04:47 PM

I'd only really say the first album is a stoner rock album, the rest is just mainstream rock really. It's all great stuff though, I don't think I've ever disliked a CD that Josh homme's been involved in.

Werny 06-25-2006 05:35 AM

They have a very stoner aesthetic to them but yeah, way too modern and clean to be stoner rock.

I got Bathos! By Aarni! Wheeeee! Trippy shat.

Well Of Souls is amazing.

Kyle 06-25-2006 10:15 AM

Just ordered:
Clutch - Elephant Riders
Fu Manchu - California Crossing
Corrosion of Conformity - In the Arms of God

I guess the first two might apply to this thread.

ATM 06-25-2006 10:16 AM

I need to get some Fu Manchu albums. I wish the singer was better, though.

Uberman 06-25-2006 10:47 AM

I have become interested in doom via Reverend Bizarre, as I love every single one of their songs, so can people recommend bands similar to them?

Werny 06-25-2006 11:18 AM

I love the end, though I've never been able to tell; is that choir synths or Messiah singing along with the guitar?

Kyle 06-25-2006 11:34 AM

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]I need to get some Fu Manchu albums. I wish the singer was better, though.[/QUOTE]I don't really mind the vocals at all, I mean it's not really singing, but the laid back style kinda suits the music. I'll upload some Fu Manchu in one of the mailing lists if you're in any?
