Good stuff, reminded me of early Katatonia

ShieldbitersValhalla on Sat, 07/05/2011 - 09:04

My favorite one: Thorr's Hammer.

Skunkspritz on Sat, 07/05/2011 - 14:33

Haha I always thought this band was another Black Metal knock off xD I dig it!

ShieldbitersValhalla on Sat, 07/05/2011 - 15:07

Well there is/was a black metal band called Thor's Hammer but it's not the doom band *Thorr's* Hammer. I am not sure how many bands have similar names.

That Goat Horn video was wicked sick! :D

acid witch rules!

thrashbabe85 on Sun, 08/05/2011 - 07:15

Try Seasons of the Wolf, very underrated band. Tho I'm not sure if they are actually true doom metal, more like power/traditional metal.

Skunkspritz on Tue, 10/05/2011 - 16:25

This stuff was still good though:)

Seany Genovese on Mon, 09/05/2011 - 12:07

Officium Triste, Coffins, Bongzilla, Dead Languages and YOB

Maddolis on Mon, 09/05/2011 - 19:35

You absolutely need to listen to Amorphis' 'Tales from the Thousand Lakes' if you haven't already. One of the greatest death/doom albums ever, very influential too.
You also need to listen to Saturnus, more top-notch death/doom. Any of their three full-lengths should do the trick.
A local death/doom band, Okera, have a sweet 3-track demo available off their myspace for free.

Skunkspritz on Thu, 12/05/2011 - 23:25

Saturnus was pretty sweet! Thanks :)

Wargod51 on Tue, 10/05/2011 - 09:36

There is new dOOm metal band from Indiana called Stone Magnum and I've heard some of the demo's and rough mixes and it sounds great. Thery should have their debut cd out this summer or early fall.

eddiethehead666 on Tue, 10/05/2011 - 15:07

solitude, worship, esoteric are pretty good

BruteAxe2011 on Wed, 11/05/2011 - 03:26

I love Warhorse, but you are already into them. Three more that I love are Paramaecium, Coffins, and Count Raven!

ShieldbitersValhalla on Wed, 11/05/2011 - 04:57

Paramaecium is so good! I have the "Within the Ancient Forest" album as well as the book it was based on. So great.

BruteAxe2011 on Wed, 11/05/2011 - 05:15

They are definitely incredible. I have the original pressing of "Exhumed of the Earth". The odd timed drum track on "Untombed" is just sick! Simple as can be, but definitely unusual. Jayson Sherlock is a beast!

Holy crap, Wooden Stake is good! I like that Empyrium song too.

Maddolis on Thu, 12/05/2011 - 23:11

+1 to Empyrium

Skunkspritz on Thu, 12/05/2011 - 23:22

Tico Tyrant on Mon, 17/10/2011 - 17:44

I won't lie, right now..I'm too lazy to read what's been mentioned...but hopefully these haven't been suggested yet.
I tend to gravitate towards doom/death, but I like traditional stuff as well.I thought I would suggest a few(relatively) new doom bands:

Hooded Menace(Finland)
Type: bit of a good ol death doom combo!
Albums of Importance: "Fulfill the Curse" & "Never Cross the Dead"

Verdict:Sort of like a more morbid heavy version of Tägtgren vocals. There's an overall doom approach to their music tempo, but they mix it up with some ominous riffs and some faster death metal rhythms.The lyrics primarily revolve around cinematic horror and themes of the like, including a lot of gore. It's fair to say their lyric writing is probably needing a bit of improvement, but there is a really crushing force behind this bands progression and I would easily say that "Never Cross the Dead" was one of my favorite albums of 2010.

Ahab(Germany)
Type: Well..I'd say a common funeral doom sound, with some nautical themes.
Albums of Importance: Well, they have several full lengths, but their best easily goes to "The Call of the Wretched Sea", another is "The Divinity of Oceans"

Verdict:Their music truly puts you in the eye of the storm.You can imagine dark stormy skies heavy with rain above, wind whipped white crested waves and then quickly be sucked into the chaos of earths sea and the suffocating reality of imminent death.The vocals are typical of a lot of doom, but sound very tortured and there is some great flux of pitch. Overall I would say this band is definitely worth checking out.

ErichZann on Tue, 27/12/2011 - 10:34

Go to Eyes Like Snow, the doom offshoot of Northern Silence Productions. I love this label.
http://www.northern-silence.de/eye.htm

I especially recommend Vinum Sabbatum.

enghell on Sat, 07/01/2012 - 11:11

Here's some funeral doom for you. No links (because I can't be bothered) but Youtube/Google/Metal Archives are your friends.

Wow that is a lot of funeral stuff, Thanks for the list :)

enghell on Sun, 08/01/2012 - 18:04

You're welcome.

BlueEyedBeast on Sun, 08/01/2012 - 13:28

You forgot Tyranny. They only have one album out so far; Tides Of Awakening. That music is the sound of the whole world fucking drowning.

enghell on Sun, 08/01/2012 - 18:06

No, I just don't have anything with them in my cd collection and haven't really listened to them, so I can't recommend something I'm not that familiar with. Simply as that.

DevilzForce on Sun, 18/11/2012 - 22:06

you should check the sideproject... Wormphlegm
beats tyranny to a bloody pulp..

Liberator on Wed, 21/11/2012 - 11:40

All good stuff. You might wanna add mighty Skepticism to that list!

Skunkspritz on Sat, 07/01/2012 - 11:15

So far I have found great stuff :D thank you alL <3

Blüdrayne on Sat, 07/01/2012 - 16:50

listen to orchid.
pure master of reality worship.
I think the EP is better than the full length, but what you hear is pretty awesome no matter where u start.

Liberator on Wed, 21/11/2012 - 11:43

Orchid as in Orchid that released Capricorn? If you're talking about that band then all I can say is, I fucking agreee!!

lowriderskin on Sat, 07/01/2012 - 22:32

Unholy from finland

RedRays on Sun, 08/01/2012 - 06:31

I can suggest you Estatic Fear from Austria as an underrated doom metal band. They're by far my favourite one in doom metal.

ErichZann on Sun, 08/01/2012 - 07:16

Venomous Maximus and Misty Morning.

Count Raven

have not been mentioned yet. I'd go for the Storm Warning album.

Skunkspritz on Sun, 08/01/2012 - 12:15

I am surprised too o.o >.<

Breiti on Sun, 08/01/2012 - 07:26

Spiritus Mortis!

Nordgreen on Sun, 08/01/2012 - 10:51

You should really look at Saturnus. It's a danish death/doom metal band with a lot of melodic elements. "Paradise Belongs To You" is an amazin album. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41ZEbJnHEf0

Skunkspritz on Sun, 08/01/2012 - 12:13

Wow... I loved that one XD That is def going on my list!
