Here are my 50 personal favorite doom metal records of all time in ranked order, 1 album per band - this has nothing to do with what are the most "important" doom metal albums but many of these could easily fall into that discussion.
Nero - yeah, everyone has always seemed to hate their debut, but I've always really dug it a lot. Draconian Times is my second favorite, and Gothic would be my third. Their new album is surprisingly good.
Puntugruhm - Honestly, I've just always lumped Earth in with doom bands, even their less doomy material. You're right, it's just that Hex is by far my favorite record from them.
Surprised to see 27 here, Gothic is way better. [2] Not that I hate the debut at all, it's good.
Some neat albums here.
4 is incredible and too unknown.
Yeah I've been pushing 4 as much as possible around here. I just re-listened to the debut from Paradise Lost again this afternoon, and yeah, I have no idea whey it gets the hate it does.
