I agree though, I don't think I've ever heard an Evoken album that wasn't absolutely the embodiment of every reason I love doom metal. Tyranny is another great one, Tides of Awakening is epic. If you are looking for some prettier or more melodic doom metal, Draconian and Shape of Despair are two of the best. There is a lot of boring sappy crap in that side of the doom genre, but these are a couple of the gems in the rough imo.

13.03.2011 - 03:50 Written by odious.infinity on 13.03.2011 at 03:41 I prefer Tyranny's Bleak Vistae EP to their full-length, which isn't to say it's bad. I think the EP just has less filler. I like Draconian's later works, though Doom:VS is more suited to my tastes. Shape of Despair are definitely worth mentioning as a lot of more melodic doom bands these days take a lot of influence from them (especially Remembrance, Ankhagram, Lethian Dreams, etc.).

13.03.2011 - 16:06 Written by Marcel Hubregtse on 13.03.2011 at 11:24 I don't think many do, and the ones who have beef with its production should just listen to the 2009 re-release anyway.

13.03.2011 - 16:08 Written by Troy Killjoy on 13.03.2011 at 16:06 That one only sounds slightly "better" if you ask me. I for one find the original production actually adding to the music.

Same. It adds a much more grimy vibe to it which really brings out the essence of each song. Not a masterpiece by my account, but not worth the hate it receives by most fans.

13.03.2011 - 16:12 Written by Troy Killjoy on 13.03.2011 at 16:10 Exactly. It is still a very good demo. But I never came across fans that hated it. All the fans I know like it a lot and see it for what it is... a demo which shows a lot of potential.

14.03.2011 - 19:15 Written by IronAngel on 25.01.2011 at 19:20 Marcel beat me to the punch in suggesting Coffins, but might I suggest both Acid Witch and Druid Lord. Acid Witch is quite psychedelic, with groovy Doom Rock riffs, but the vocals are clearly Death vox. Druid Lord actually sound more like Hooded Menace to me than Acid Witch do, even though Acid Witch and Hooded Manace shared a vocalist for a while.

I'm going to hijack the topic again, and ask a question that probably has been asked before. I want to find more traditional and epic doom, or rather traditional doom with an epic feel to it. I guess that often means strong heavy metal influences, but that's not a necessity at all. Examples: Candlemass Solstice Solitude Aeternus DoomSword Procession Warning Atlantean Kodex Mael Mórdha While Heaven Wept (they may fit this bill, though I prefer to keep it slower and lower) Some of Manowar's early epic songs Dio-era Sabbath and Heaven & Hell, though that's more like heavy metal I guess There are plenty of great traditional doom bands I've discovered, but most of them have this groovy occult thing going. Right now I want to listen to something that feels like fresh air, cloud-covered skies and dark mountains.

31.07.2011 - 11:53 Written by IronAngel on 31.07.2011 at 02:31 Okay going through my cd's and vinyls for you now. Leaving out the really traditional stuff like Saint Vitus, Pentagram, Trouble, Deathrow, that sort of stuff and stuff that leans extremely heavily on those bands. And only listing stuff I have as original. Hopefuklly this will help you along. So here it goes: Age Of Taurus Altar Of Oblivion Angel Of Damnation Apostle Of Solitude (parts of their debut album Sincerest Misery) Argus (USA, although a bit more heavy metal) Black Oath (the debut full-length that was released this year) Capilla Ardiente Cardinals Folly Caskets Open Concept Of God Condenados Count Raven Crowned In Earth Dantesco (personally don't like them, but maybe you would, who knows) Dawn Of Gehenna Dawn Of Winter Doomshine (not really a fan myself) Ereb Altor (by the guys in Isole but with more viking era Bathory worship going on at times) Faith Fall Of The Idols (has quite some epic touches to it) Fangtooth (but I find them not good) Forlorn (turned into Isole later on) Forsaken Funeral Circle Gallow God Graden Of Worm Griftegård Hooded Priest (although live a lot better than on album) Hour Of 13 Isole Krux (more or less) KYPCK (a.k.a Kursk) Lamented Souls Leif Edling (yep he made a solo album as well) Lord Vicar Manilla Road (epic as hell but not really doom) Memory Garden Minotauri Mirror Of Deception Mourn (more or less) Nemesis (from Sweden) Nomad Son Orodruin Pagan Altar Procession Reverend Bizarre (although not really epic doom but still..) Rituals Of The Oak Rote Mare (the recent stuff) Sahg (quite a bit) Scald Seamount Sorcerer Semlah Sinister Realm (although more heavy metal) Spirit Descent Spiritus Mortis Taak Tefra The 11th Hour (even though grunts are also used the music itself is quite epic and the clean vocals are done by Ed Warby) The Doomsday Cult The Flight Of Sleipnir The Gates Of Slumber (their last one and first couple of Saint Vitusish but the two before the last one are more epic doom and epic hevay metal) The Human Condition The Lamp Of Thoth The River The Wandering Midget The Wizar'd Thunderstorm Unsilence Well Of Souls (Germany) Well Of Souls (from the US) Wheel Wizards Of Doom (has some Saturnus and ex-Saturnus guys in it) World Below and the following thread here on MS might help you as well http://www.metalstorm.net/forum/topic.php?topic_id=619

Thanks for the recommendations again, Marcel. I knew a good handful of those, but I've already found a few new favorites. Ereb Altor and Isole are great. Memory Garden sounds promising, and you reminded me to properly check out Minotauri soon. It's shameful that I don't know them very well, considering the Finnish scene is very small and I actually post on the same Finnish metal boards as Honkonen, the frontman. Still a lot to go through.

06.09.2011 - 18:11 Written by [user id=28526] on 06.09.2011 at 17:55 Pallbearer are quite similar to Warning and somehow I find Faith's most recent work quite Isole like also try out While Heaven Wept - Of Empires Forlorn and also Sorrow Of The Angels by WHW also Solitude Aeturnus and Candlemass when it comes to Isole like epic doom help, how could I forget Procession

I think SubRosa's No Help for the Mighty Ones is one of this year's best releases but that's just me.

27.09.2011 - 00:58 Written by [user id=20536] on 08.09.2011 at 02:18 Agreed. I was crazy about it for a good while. Now I've begun to think some of the songs meander a bit and they could be either more focused or diverse. Still, it's a minor gripe as the album is full of memorable melodies, great vocals and really nice sounds. It is probably my favorite metal release of the year so far, but not quite album of the year material. In the top 15 albums overall, though. Really good doom or doomy metal releases from Corrupted, Dark Buddha Rising, Argus, 40 Watt Sun and Sonne Adam, too. Actually all the best metal albums of the year had some connection to doom, so far..

It's listed as black metal on this site, but Gallhammer's album from earlier this year, The End, is a pretty good doom album. It's also the only album I have with no guitars.

Any fans of Trouble? Psalm 9 is a pretty neat doom album I think.
