I don't listen to enough doom, so recommend some - Page 2

Nailed To Gold · 05-31-2012, 07:16 AM

I don't really listen to much "doom" anymore, but I thought of these:

My Dying Bride - Turn Loose The Swans
disembowlment - Transcendence
Tiamat - Clouds
Anathema - Serenades + Crestfallen EP
Paradise Lost - Gothic

any Evoken is a good recommendation. If you want doom with only clean vocals, check out Solitude Aeturnus - In Times of Solitude, although I can't stand that shit.

Grindhead Records · 05-31-2012, 07:26 AM

Bands (all Australian, just 'cos') that haven't been mentioned previously, but perhaps are worth a listen:
Sore
Clagg
Agonhymn
Futility
Looking Glass

Eschaton · 05-31-2012, 09:11 AM

Wreck of the Hesperus- Light Rotting Out. Also, while not 100% Doom Ilsa- Tutti il Colori del Buio is some good stuff.

Dunlop · 05-31-2012, 09:22 AM

Eschaton · 05-31-2012, 09:26 AM

Also either of Coffinworm's albums and Lurk's only album are worth checking out.

GrindYourMind · 05-31-2012, 09:40 AM

Don't buy into that NorCal "my life sucks" bullshit

listen to The Bleeding and masturbate furiously

creepjoe · 05-31-2012, 10:31 AM

Graves At Sea - Documents Of Grief

this gem is a riff-o-rama.

Candlemass - Epicus Doomicus Metallicus

Only listen to the first. Album kinda sucks but the first song "solitude" is awesome.

Candlemass - Nightfall

you cannot deny the classics of doom

earthlylove · 05-31-2012, 10:51 AM

pallbearer-sorrow and extinction

creepjoe · 05-31-2012, 10:51 AM

also i wouldn't post dystopia in a doom thread.

AUTOPSY666 · 05-31-2012, 03:12 PM

HYPONIC

PROFETUS

You need to get some taste.

ratsapprentice · 05-31-2012, 05:38 PM

Nightfall.

open face surgery · 05-31-2012, 06:39 PM

One of my favourite bands. All of their stuff is great.

All four albums are amazing. Recording a new one this year as well.

Really enjoying this demo. It's up for download on their FB page.

Also:
Ahab - The Call of the Wretched Sea
Esoteric
Indesinence - Noctambulism
Evoken - The Antithesis of Light
Yob - The Illusion of Motion
The Wounded Kings - In the Chapel of the Black Hand

Sculpy · 05-31-2012, 11:00 PM

OP so disappeared. He'll never get through this backlog.

TheBlackFlux · 05-31-2012, 11:28 PM

Evoken - Antithesis of Light
Evoken - Embrace the Emptiness
Esoteric - Epistemological Despondency
Esoteric - Maniacal Vale
Esoteric - Subconscious Dissolution into the Continuum
diSEMBOWELMENT - Transcendence into the Periphery
Warning - Watching From a Distance
Church of Misery - Houses of the Unholy
Conan - Horseback Battle Hammer
Anhedonist - Netherwards
YOB - The Great Cessation
Electric Wizard - Dopethrone
etc...etc..
Lot's of great albums in the genre (and subgenre's)

Cloaca · 06-01-2012, 12:02 AM

This is basically the best doom album ever. So harsh and fucked, yet still beautiful. The second disc in particular is just immense. All the samples are fucking perfect. Takes a bit of getting into in order to realise its greatness though.

ESOTERIC - THE PERNICIOUS ENIGMA

^The drums in this song are probably the best I've ever heard in doom. The bit at about 5:50 (as the sample ends) is basically the most epic shit ever.

Robinator · 06-01-2012, 11:12 PM

I gladly recommend the following as well..

Burning Witch
Pilgrim
Hour of 13
Earthride
Decrepitaph (though people often call 'em Death Metal still, they have plenty of slower doom passages to pass off as "doom" and they're real good too!)

Phidion · 06-02-2012, 08:08 AM

This is the doom i listen to:

Evoken
Esoteric
Mysticism
Catacomb
YOB
Indesinence
Ahab
Conan

Dunlop · 06-02-2012, 08:54 AM

I don't think Pilgrim was posted yet. Great album

Hideous Infirmity · 06-02-2012, 09:32 AM

Not much into doom:

Cathedral - Forest of equilibrium
Crowbar - Obedience through suffering
Anathema - Serenades
Great albums, not pure doom I guess

Hideous Infirmity · 06-02-2012, 09:41 AM

Esoteric sounds pretty cool, Timmy.

Hideous Infirmity · 06-02-2012, 09:45 AM

The end of "sinistrous" was amazing. Gonna check them out more in the future, great tip! Pretty close to Disembowelment huh?

novareaper · 06-02-2012, 10:27 AM

as far as esoteric goes, check out their first album "epistemological despondency." pretty much one of the trippiest and most fucked up hateful doom metal albums ever put to record

creepjoe · 06-02-2012, 11:17 AM

Saint Vitus - s/t (Another essential classic IMO)

Great album. It's a shame they didn't play their self-titled track at MDF.

There's a lot of obscure shit posted here, but I recommend starting with the classics, and then work your way up to Graves At Sea.

gein · 06-02-2012, 12:25 PM

excommunion- superion
excommunion/dethroned split

great thread btw

emperadorXXIV · 06-02-2012, 12:56 PM

Definately give this album a chance

open face surgery · 06-02-2012, 03:14 PM

Without any shadow of a doubt, he should go for In the Rectory of the Bizarre Reverend first. Every other album has some filler except the debut.

Alejandro4891 · 06-02-2012, 03:23 PM

i'm really enjoying trouble's psalm 9. it'll be a good while before i get through all these recs.

open face surgery · 06-02-2012, 06:35 PM

Great album. Go for Pentagram next if your on for the more rocky buzz so. Can't go wrong. As with any genre, with all it's sub genres etc it's a vast wasteland your looking at.

Cloaca · 06-03-2012, 03:29 AM

Lille: Yeah fairly close to Disembowelment, particularly their earlier stuff. Transcendence is pretty much the only doom album that compares to Pernicious. As Nova said, you should also check out Epistemological Despondency, you'd like that too.
