One of my favorite kinds of music too. Let's talk about this great sub-genre. I know more about doom death/black and funeral doom metal. But I wait for your replies to learn more.

I've just bought the last 2 Spiritual Beggars albums (I'm playing Demons as I type this) following a lot of hype across many metal sites.
 
....and believe me they are right, awesome!

I tend to mainly trend towards doom/death (Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride), but I do enjoy a lot of doom metal. I'm open for suggestions - I've never looked into the genre nearly as much as I would like to. Big smile

Yes Cathedral, Katatonia, October Tide, Tiamat and all that jazz is all good, but I'm a proud follower of the cult following of drone doom metal like Earth, Sunn O))), and Boris.

A fan of traditional doom. Candle Mass, Trouble, Electric Wizard, Solitude Aeturnus, Pagan Altar, Warning and Witchcraft. Celtic Frost and Pentagram for some reason don't do anything for me.
 
I've noticed stoner/doom Witchcraft from Sweden isn't present here at MMA. Not heavy enough? Maybe hard rock.

Stoner doom is also pretty nice!

For those who likes Funeral Doom, I recommend the french band Monolithe!

Not a huge fan of the genre but I am a huge fan of a few doom metal bands.

Namely Candlemass, whose first 4 are essential albums for the fans imo, especially Epicus, Doomicus, Metallicus and Nightfall. I'm a fan of Chapter VI as well, great power/doom and of the comeback stuff.

Secondly, Solitude Aeturnus. A Texas based band, it features one of my favourite voices in metal ever, Robert Lowe (who now fronts Candlemass as well). Their entire discography is GODLY. A bit of caution is needed with Downfall, which finds them a bit experimental but still heavy as fuck. First three are considered their most classics, I would also add Adagio to the list (which also contains a stellar edition of Sabbath's Heaven and Hell).

Memento Mori, Cathedral, Memory Garden, Trouble are all A-OK in my book as well (esp. the first two).

...back in the early nineties and got hooked from there...but it�s only recently I�ve checked out the first three "really" doomy albums by the band. Especially:

They play a really cool and varied mix of doom metal and traditional heavy metal on those first three albums that greatly appeals to me. "Manic Frustration" is still my favorite though (first loves and all):

I love the way the band incorporated Beatlesque psychadelia into their sound from the early nineties onwards.

What's clear to me now is that Dopethrone is Electric Wizard's only album worth owning.  The two before it were a Cathedral clone for the first album and an attempt to do a dry run for Dopethrone in the second album, and all the ones after seem to be trying (unsuccessfully) to live up to it.

I've already reviewed the first and have the second on CD.  The first one is the superior one in my eyes and I'll get a proper review of the second one up eventually.

Rorcal, Heliogabalus. 70 minute single track doom metal driven to pounding extremes.

Witch Mountain.... cool.  Just writing the review for them, gotta say that I love them.  Perfect blending of Blues, Doom and a wee bit of  twisted 70's Stoner stuff mashed in.  

I have been re listening to a older band called Izah... a Doom based band  from the cold climbs of the Netherlands with some hardcore and death thrown into the mix to make for a nasty release  This band may not be everyone's cup of tea... but for this old doomer -  damn this was a very impressive and intriguing CD.  

I reviewed this self titled EP in '10 for Metalbite... and I gave it a rating of 9.2 out of 10, as I was blown away by a band that was barbarically heavy and yet has such a way with the lyrics as well.  As of today, I think I have low balled it a touch.  Would give this album from Izah today a 9.7.  It is as brilliant as it is hugely heavy.

Have I got a band for you.... The Prophecy. 

This UK band pulls no punches, giving you five amazing tracks of doom that is tinged with smatterings of Death metal attack.  After Into the light... this is the perfect follow up.

Somber, introspective while being heavy, this band oozes with talent that is only matched by the darkness woven lyrics that takes you on a trip into a the darker sides of Christian beliefs - and yet there is more to offer than this. The album title 'Salvation' lures you in, and shows that perhaps you'd might never be saved- or maybe you can.  The lyrics do explore that... and more

I found myself listening to the album over and over again, and finding more and more of it that I liked in the process - and that is no small feat.  Cant really get much better... Candlemass are the gods in this genre, but I think The Prophecy is one of the bands that just might challenge the slow motion kings from Sweden..

Hungarian Doom Masters Wall of Sleep is the band that Black Sabbath would be if they came out nowadays...  and yet they are their own bestial invention with all the hallmarks of pure originality - mixing low and powerful Traditional Doom Metal chugging with shadings of classic NWOBHM sounds.

Slow and very introspective in every way, the band shows intelligence that is refreshing as well as perfect in the framework of the music.  Even though the album, When Mountain Roar, was released back in 2011 -  this one is a must have at all cost for any Doom Fan.

Wall of Sleep will excite you... and not put you to 'sleep'.

Disembowelment. They are crushingly heavy and atmospheric but also incorporate grind parts, which is quite unusual for the genre.
 
Catacombs
 
Monolithe

Would this fit? I become confused with all the genres and sub genres. Where would you categorise these?

That sounds more sludge than doom but there can be a certain amount of crossover between certain sub genres and that does have some doom elements at times.

Welcome to the forum by the way!

I liked it a lot, it's a very varied track with a bit of everything they do in it: a bit of doom, a bit of classic metal, and a bit of pysch and prog.

Yes it was good. I get the feeling that they are going to move away even more from the doom of the first album than the last one but we shall see.

They last album had non-doom dominant tracks like the title track, but I don't mind hearing something different from them like this.

Me neither but I hope they don't totally abandon doom. 

The new Pallbearer has moved away to an extent from doom too. When i first started listening to it I was thinking this is going to have to be moved but then the doomier stuff crept in later.

I'm thinking that I need to get more acquainted with doom metal. Anyone feel like recommending me a few bands to try out?

Knowing your tastes, these are my biggest two recommendations to you:

Sacrilege's Turn Back Trilobite:

The band's first two albums are amazing crushing thrash, but then made one of my all time favorite doom metal albums with this one. You can still tell the band's origins though, as there is the occasional thrash riff. Sample:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mcDT-0LbVA" rel="nofollow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mcDT-0LbVA  (Father Time)

Witch Charmer:

http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/album/witch-charmer/the-great-depression" rel="nofollow - http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/album/witch-charmer/the-great-depression

These guys are more stoner than doom, but I think you would really like them as they're a bit like early Blood Ceremony in some ways. Sample:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7R3-KAyuQ00" rel="nofollow - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7R3-KAyuQ00  (A Watching of Wolves)

I could recommend tons more, but these are the two favorites of mine that first came to mind.

Here's a few bands to check out..

Trouble - many good ones but could try most recent one The Distortion Field
Witch Mountain  for some bluesy doom.
Sorceror -  In The Shadow Of The Inverted Cross
Cathedral - The Ethereal Mirror  (stoner/doom)
Saint Vitus - Die Healing
With The Dead - only have one album with a second on the way
Solitude Aeturnus - Downfall

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I've started checking them out this morning.

Couldn't find the Sacrilege album on Spotify so I'll try looking elsewhere later. 

Witch Charmer didn't grab me after one track for some reason, so I moved onto Trouble. I listened to The Distortion Field first, which to be honest sounds more like a stoner metal album to me. I enjoyed it to a point but it didn't grab me too much. I've now moved onto their debut Psalm 9, which I'm enjoying a lot more.

The With the Dead album didn't do much for me unfortunately. On the other hand I've been really digging Witch Mountain and listened to three of their albums today. Solitude Aeturnus was good too. I know I've heard some of their stuff before but I don't think a full album.

For funeral doom I would DEFINITELY say Esoteric! Some other ones would be Monolithe and Ahab. I haven't listened to too much funeral doom myself. Need to fix that.

Esoteric is essential listening, and I'd also add Skepticism's Stormcrowfleet to that list.

Although they are primarily a death metal band Asphyx incorporate doom into their music and well worth checking out if you haven't already.

I checked out an Evoken album last night. Atra Mors. I really liked that one. Seemed like the doom metal answer to atmospheric black metal.

Also enjoyed this one which I got cheap off of ebay. Recommend it. The style is fairly atmospheric but non-funeral death-doom. I actually had one of their other albums as a promo a while back but overlooked it which based on this one was probably a mistake.

Nearing the end of this one:



This was a bit different to the other funeral doom I've tried so far because the vocals are female rather than growled and it has dark folk influences, no doubt due to the presence of Vàli on guitar, whose album Forlatt is highly regarded in the dark folk genre.

I listened to this today but came away wondering what all the fuss over it is about. I know it's very highly regarded, but it came over as a very boring release to me after enjoying Evoken, Esoteric and Skumring from the funeral doom genre. Maybe it's supposed to be a slow burner but it really hasn't left me with any desire to listen to it again. Ouch

Yes, I have that album and it's a good one. I can normally only take funeral doom in small doses. I've never got round to checking out the rest of their stuff.

Ahab are probably my favourite funeral doom band.

Esoteric have never clicked with me either. I feel like I should give them another go considering how highly regarded they are.

I still need to hear that one, most of their discography actually. I've had One Second and In Requiem for a while now, having found them in a second hand shop and I got Draconian Times and the Reflection compilation in that big job lot of CDs I bought recently. Don't know their other work yet.
