I just got Epicus Doomicus Metallus (sp?wtf). It's amazing

Awesome.

Have you got [I]Nightfall[/I] yet? >:[

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]Have you guys heard the Boris and Merzbow collaboration?[/QUOTE]

Sun Baked Snow Cave? I'm not really into Merzbow, although I liked Merzbirds. It's nice to listen to now and again. I think I've managed it about three times, but I get bored of it after a while.

Damn Josh, just the mention of Candlemass has made me want to listen to Nightfall!

np: Candlemass - The Well of Souls

[QUOTE=Apocalyptic Raids]Awesome.

Negative

I'll get it soon enough.

It's so good.

You know it has the song Nile got that riff from, right?

What?

The opening riff in Unas Slayer of The Gods is a Candlemass riff.

Candlemass is great.

Their Sabbath medly is pretty lame, IMO.

So what. I always thought of it as just a 'for fun' thing, not something they really practiced.

I was just saying. I like them otherwise :)

Good.

NP: Well of Souls

Yeah, when I heard first Unas Slayer of the Gods, I knew it sounded familiar, then realised it was the Well of Souls riff.

Anyone like Halfway to Gone? I think Bartender reccomended them to me about half a year ago, but I only just got around to checking them out properlly. Anyways, they're really good.

Wats Sun O))) best album.

Black one or White One.

Black One.

I got black one but some songs kinda get boring to me. But it does have to be listened to as a whole.

If you get bored by Black One don't bother to get any other albums.
Black one is thei easiest to get in to album, with short songs and a bit more coherent songwriting (for Drone that is :p ).
The Other albums are like 15+ songs most of the time.

Oh haha, is it gonna take sometime for me to get into this music??? did it for u....

All hail In The Woods..., Swallow The Sun, and Katatonia.

Greenmachine from Japan is pretty f[U]u[/U]ckin rocking. I wish they had come over with Boris.

[QUOTE=Aakon_Keetreh]Oh haha, is it gonna take sometime for me to get into this music??? did it for u....[/QUOTE]
It took me time to get in to it too, don't worry.
It's just black one is already their most accesible album, so make sure you can enjoy that before you check out other Sunn O)))

Also, you might want to check out Funeral Doom, it has the uber slow tempo of Drone, but with more melody, that might appeal more to you and makes it easier to get into the genre. :)

Is there anyone heavier than Electric Wizard? If so, who?

'Heavy' is a stupid descriptor. You can't measure heaviness. What is 'heavy'? Is it a thick, bass-heavy sound? If so then we'd all shut up after Crowbar or some gay... sorry I mean funeral doom band.

If 'heavy' means an apocalyptic feeling of doom, then Black Sabbath 'Black Sabbath' is heavier than anything released since.

I think you should all listen to Mirror of Deception. I had a very pleasant musical experience on my way to work listening to their excellent 'foregone' album. So much so though that I sat in the car park for an extra ten minutes just so I could listen to the sublime 'bleak' one more time.

Haha, I was going to mention that song. Brilliant.

For ages I've searched for a Funeral Doom band that didn't try to turn it into something depressing and instead make really powerful, monolithic behemoth-like tunes.

Wormphlegm's Tomb of the Ancient King and Catacombs' In the Depths of R'lyeh have given me exactly that! Brilliant!

I'm not familair with them Werny, sounds good though.
I ordered some Funeral doom a few days ago, should be good:

Shape Of Despair - Illusion's Play
Skepticism - Farmakon
Mournful Congregation - Monad Of Creation

That Mournful Congregation album is great.
