I've actually never listened to these guys... but a doom album with high ratings on Metal Storm probably means they sound like Draconian or Ecstatic Fear.

no, they do not sound like Draconian; give them a try, you might be surprised.

Nah, I just have doubts about highly rated albums on here. Especially when it comes to doom. Usually it's always gothic-type stuff.

Coming from a fan of Draconian by the way.

And I should maybe check this out. Any name-dropping you can do to inspire me? Who do they sound like?

The trolling accusation was not pointed at the Draconian reference ,which is true, at all. I'm just surprised that you don't know them but thinking back now I remembered that you're not a fan of Epic Doom, but still Solitude Aeturnus are one of the most influential bands of this sub-genre of Doom and the fact that you did not know them shows how underrated they are

Epic doom? Ya, not so much. Isole and Candlemass are the only two bands in that style that I like.

I guess that means it's pretty safe to say that you should at least check them out then

That's "Mr. Itrytolistentoeverything" actually.

I'll check this album out tonight... or at least a few songs to judge.

If I remember. I have a bad habit of saying I'll listen to something and then never actually listening to it.

To be fair though he sounds like a different vocalist altogether on the recent Candlemass albums.

I don't have anything lined up to review tonight so I'll make a point of listening to this.

And then we'll see if your prediction is accurate.

(It probably will be.)

I've at least heard of Yearning.

I probably won't check out more than this album to be honest. Epic doom hasn't really been my thing, and I find I'm leaning more and more towards cutting out almost all other forms of metal aside from black.

I was just messing with you, you said several times already you won't check anything.

I'm not much of a doom listener either. I don't even know what epic doom is.

Apart of early Anathema, Katatonia, some My Dying bride, Solitude Aeturnus, Warning and the two bands i mentioned above, doom is a genre I am not keen on listening.
