Funeral doom definately... I love depressive music and this subgenre always sound more or less depressive.
I like Black Doom as well but I haven't seen many bands playing this kind of genre combination... :


What kidn of black/doom band syou like Give examples maybe I can suggest some to you


Well, I loooove Misanthropic Art... Faustcoven and Forest Of Souls are great as well...
Dolorian and Forgotten Tomb play also such kind of metal but their music doesn't seem so amazing for me as Misanthropic Art's..

Death & Doom are synonyms in language, they are brothers in Metal, I find Death Passages in Doom very interesting, it make the variation.

I will never try Katatonia. Dunno why but this band is one of those I'd rather avoid listening to...
Beatrik sucks IMO... I've heard them but this band made me very disappointed.
I've heard some stuff from Tristitia but don't remember how did they sound like..
I don't know those other bands you mentioned..

Katatonia are amazingly good. All of their album, but when it comes to their Doom days, Brave Murder Day is a masterpiece and Dance of December Souls is just great.

Traditional Doom and Death Doom is really great. Those are the two sub-genre's I enjoy the most. I've never really heard some Folk Doom bands before. I might check some bands out.

Oh, and Funeral Doom is also a great subgenre, although I don't listen to it so much anymore.

i like death doom and funeral doom, but i vote for Folk doom cause it is less depressive than others and we can find something new, something attractive with the folk elements

I can finally decide: Funeral Doom.

It just soothes me. Epic Doom is also great, but most bands tend to bore me after a while.

I need more recommendation of doom with keyboard. I dont refer to particular doom subgenre, but I want to find the music which is like combination between doom metal and keyboard, like Slumber, or some Swallow The Sun songs.

I voted for Death Doom, since most of the Doom Metal albums I listen belong to this genre... But I think I like it regardless of subgenre, but it seems that Death Doom suits me the best.....

Funeral doom is so awesome. I just found a such band Colosseum from Metalstorm review. Not much knowlegable about the genre but can say they are very melodic slowing.

Along with Black Metal, Doom is my favourite genre. Its a tie between Black/Doom and Funeral Doom. Love the atmosphere and much of the lyrics is good. I also like Death/Doom very much.

I go for the sludge. Though it is pretty close to stoner doom...
It's the one that makes me feel more depressed.
I like the dirty feeling, the low and slow riffs, the repressed anger and the sudden speed bursts, the bluesy solos and etc.
Death/doom used to be my favorite, but I kind of grew out of it. I guess it tired me or I got sick of all the romanticism most bands of the genre tend to focus on. For funeral doom, there's a few bands that I enjoy, but many that'll bore me to death.
Traditional doom doesn't cut it for me. I like Candlemass and St. Vitus, but that's pretty much it.
And for Black/Doom... I dunno, I only really like Forgotten Tomb.

I don't consider sludge to be actually doom, but Acid Bath and Eyehategod have me obsessed lately... also some punker shit like Cavity And Buzzoven... but they're not doom at all.

Well, there's sludge and sludge/doom. Acid Bath is hard to pigeon-hole (some doom riffs here and there), but I can definitely see some doom in Grief, Eyehategod or even Crowbar. Soilent Green however, I reckon, has pretty much zero doom in it.

Well, of all the bands you named the only one that can certainly be called doom are Grief, because they had taken some influence from the death/doom scene (they're very similar to Winter and Sorrow in some aspects), but I don't see any doom in Eyehategod beyond the obvious Black Sabbath influence. I know that there are bands that actually mix sludge with doom (Corrupted, Grief, Wreck Of The Hesperus, Arachnotaur), but they're highly exceptional and as I said, they purposefuly ADD the doom to their sludge, as sludge as a genre isn't doom-related.
