I expect for your lists.I won't write my list yet.
P.S.:When I write doom metal I mean all its sub-genres. |

I haven�t been a devoted doom metal fan since the mid-nineties but some of my favorites are:
My Dying Bride - Turn Loose the Swans
Confessor - Condemned
Cathedral - The Ethereal Mirror
Paradise Lost - Gothic
Trouble - Psalm 9
Candlemass - Epicus Doomicus Metallicus
Katatonia - Viva Emptiness ( kind of borderline, but I guess this one can be justified)

Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath Candlemass - King of the Grey Islands / From the 13th Sun (weird picks I know) Solitude Aeturnus - Adagio My Dying Bride - As the flower withers Paradise Lost - Shades of God Neurosis - Through Silver in Blood (bit of a stretch maybe) Spiritual Beggars - Ad Astra (doom-fun!) Triptykon - Eparistera Daimones Celtic Frost - Monotheist Edited by bonnek - 15 Feb 2011 at 5:05pm |

The easy answer would be the Candlemass plus Solitude Aeturnus albums. To keep it restricted to one album per band: Solitude Aeturnus - Beyond the Crimson Horizon Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath/Masters of Reality (can't decide right now) Paradise Lost - Icon Memento Mori - Rhymes of Lunacy Cathedral - Carnival Bizarre Memory Garden - Mirage Confessor - Condemned Solstice - New Dark Age Pentagram - Relentless From the top of my head. Not my absolute favourite genre but I have some real favourite bands in it... |

Heh! Never had a problem with high pitched vocals myself! (read, I am a huge fan of King Diamond, Sanctuary, Crimson Glory, Toxik, Watchtower etc, etc).
Only other progressive (this tech metal side of things) doom that I can think of is actually Memento Mori. Especially, Life, Death and Other Morbid Tales. Heathendom! There's another awesome metal epic btw! Any Memento Mori fans? (how about now? ;) )

I don't listen to much Doom.
My only contributions here will be the two albums I've heard right through. Argus - Boldly Stride the Doomed (I added these guys to trad, but with further listening I'm wondering if doom might not be the better fit after all) Draconian - Turning Season Within

Most of that list is what we tend to call sludge metal, which is related to doom but not exactly. Also, it's better than doom metal

It did say subgenres. Guess I just have a sweet spot for sludge/stoner metal ![]() |

I'd say HoF is closer to doom than Neurosis. They were actually listed as doom on this site until fairly recently when I moved them

Yep I originally put them in doom because of their stoner tendencies ( stoner goes to doom on MMA), but I�m OK with having them in Sludge/ Post.

A sub genre I enjoy but don't know a lot of
![]() but some Doom Metal albums I really love are EDM by Candlemass Psalm 9 by Trouble Shrinebuilder by Shrinebuilder anything by Asphyx if you'll take doom/death Oh and of course funeral doom! |

Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Testament. The real Big Four of thrash metal!
Listen to doom metal, worship Satan |
