[QUOTE=magicbus;14115928]I'm still not sure about the difference between funeral and regular doom :confused:[/QUOTE]

Funeral doom = heavy, SLOOOOW, often crushing in its atmosphere, utterly depressing

Doom = (as Jondur says) anything that stems somewhat from the Sabbath circle of influence.

I really need to be in a mood to listen Trad doom, i can listen to FD almost at any time though.

Grívf - Midgaard

Oh so Doom could be something with a "moderate" tempo, just heavy at the same time? I thought all of it was sloooooooow.

A lot of it is rather slow, but not all doom is time impeding. Cathedral have more midpaced songs than anything and they're some of the pioneers of the doom genre.

So could Sleep or Electric Wizard be considered doom? Or just stoner metal?

I love listening to all this stuff, but I'm lost on all the genres :p

I love Electric Funeral.

Yeah, I really like Dopethrone. The sludgy, fuzzy bass is the coolest thing ever.

Electric Wizard is pretty cool.

Bus, you mean Electric Wizard, an ownage band.

He's talking about an album, you fa[I]g[/I]got.

...an album by Electric Wizard, not Electric Funeral you horrible poster.

whatever. i just hate your avatar.

Whoops. Yeah, I meant Electric Wizard, but I was thinking about Funeral Doom at the time.

I just finished listening to Pink by Boris, that was really a good album! People told it was more a drone album, so I prepared the worse, but I liked it very much. Especially the more rock 'n roll kind of songs, those were a nice for a change.

Wreck of the Hesperus is awesome.

I was listening to the Ethereal Mirror by Cathedral and noticed this was my only album by them. Any recomendations on what to get next?

/Goes hunting for it.

[I]Forest of Equilibrium[/I]

...but get The Carnival Bizarre first. :p

There isn't much drone in [i]Pink[/i] at all. Boris change their sound around a lot.

Pink is one of their weakest in my opinion

It's my least favourite of the pathetic three I've managed to get so far, to be sure.

Boris is pretty overrated in my honest opinion.

[QUOTE=magicbus;14118620]Whoops. Yeah, I meant Electric Wizard, but I was thinking about Funeral Doom at the time.[/QUOTE]

Good band.

Death SS
Paul Chain
Black Sabbath
Flower Travellin' Band
Saint Vitus

This thread.

Death SS is awesome.

Anyone know some good doom that has shorter songs? Preferably *<5

Ok, what Electric Wizard should I check out after Dopethrone?

I like stoner metal, but i havent heard much doom metal. what are some doom bands?

Candlemass
St Vitus
Cathedral
Thee Plague of Gentlemen
Penance
The River

Just look around the thread, really.

I haven't heard Penance out of that list :(

[QUOTE=WARPATH_88;14127835]I like stoner metal, but i havent heard much doom metal. what are some doom bands?[/QUOTE]

The s/t is sweet.

[QUOTE=Wotan;14127536]Death SS is awesome.[/QUOTE]

For sure. Especially the Evil Metal EP.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan;14129218]The s/t is sweet.[/QUOTE]

[I]Come my Fanatics[/I] is better

[QUOTE=magicbus;14127782]Ok, what Electric Wizard should I check out after Dopethrone?[/QUOTE]

you should be able to get a double CD with self-titled and Come my fanatics on it

I went in HMV and they had both seperate albums then the double CD for cheaper than either of them :rolleyes:

Great stuff, I love them both, but Dopethrone just annilihates everything...everything :)

Hey John, Just thought i'd give you a heads up that we're going to be doing a local music pull-out at Quench (the cardiff student magazine).

I'm going to be doing some mini articles on the Screamin Eagles and Albatross, whilst the Buffallo Kings are gonna be covered and the editor will probably write a larger article on Bomb the Sun. If it interests you at all I might be able to get a copy sent out to you or something.
