ThyCrossAwaits
06.25.25 | I suppose “melodic” might be a debatable tag here but…Hooded Menace? |
Jurtz
06.25.25 | Updated! Thanks all so far! |
Dreamflight
06.25.25 | Helevorn - Compassion Forlorn |
rage11111ro
06.25.25 | 7 and 13 rule. Let's add Hooded Menace as well |
Jurtz
06.25.25 | Got it! |
Hawks
06.25.25 | Was gonna rec Hooded Menace, but didn't know if they fit the criteria lol. One of the best dm bands of the past 25 years. |
botb
06.25.25 | Atramentus |
Dedes
06.25.25 | Enshine-Singularity (Heavily inspired by Slumber)
Ahab-Call of the Wretched Sea |
Dedes
06.25.25 | Good god this list do be stacked |
Hawks
06.25.25 | 23 isn't death/doom lol. It is amazing, but not doomy. More just old-school melodeath (emphasis on DEATH) than anything. |
DaveyMonsoon
06.25.25 | By that logic Tales from the Thousand Lakes isn't really death-doom either. |
Hawks
06.25.25 | It totally is lol. |
dbizzles
06.25.25 | I get what you mean Hawks, but it feels like death doom to me, just in a different vein. I always think of Gorement and Rippikoulu first when people mention death doom and Gorement is way more melodic. The tempo is pretty consistently low too. |
BigTuna
06.25.25 | does In Vain count? Some doom influences I think |
Jurtz
06.25.25 | Definitely stacked me thinks |
Muzz79
06.26.25 | Melodic death doom I think gothic. 3 from last year

naughtcturnal
07.10.25 | Gonna have to add Hybernoid - The Last Day Begins to this list
