I checked out a few of the bands and they are mostly too slow-paced for my liking, although Cianide isn't bad. Which of their albums is the best? Does Coffins fall into the Death/Doom genre? If so, they are good.

25.11.2011 - 21:16 Written by Slayer666 on 25.11.2011 at 11:44 Agreed. Too melodic and modernized to be considered an old school sounding release. The only Katatonia similarities I could hear are from their modern alt-rock/metal releases.

25.11.2011 - 21:17 Written by JÄY on 25.11.2011 at 19:21 Hm... The only Katatonia album this sounds like is Brave Murder Day, and I don't really consider that classic Death/Doom. Has a bit of it, fo' sure, but when someone says death/doom I think either Winter or Disembowelment and Slumber have little to nothing in common with them.

25.11.2011 - 21:29 Written by theflyingmachine on 25.11.2011 at 21:04 I would definitely say so.

25.11.2011 - 21:30 Written by Slayer666 on 25.11.2011 at 21:17 Thinking Brave Murder Day is not a classic Death/Doom album is definitely not a common opinion but your'e certainly entitled to it.

Well Brave Murder Day is classic death doom, but there's a difference in their sound. Brave Murder Day is death doom that is more reliant on doom, whereas something like Mental Funeral is death doom more reliant on death. Marcel writes it as death/doom vs. doom/death, with the latter half of the genre being more prevalent in the sound.

26.11.2011 - 00:27 Written by Troy Killjoy on 25.11.2011 at 21:53 Yep Mental Funeral would be doom / death. Simple grammatical rule actually about the right element being the prevelant one. It's called "the right hand head rule" so the most right hand element is the strongest one.

26.11.2011 - 00:32 Written by Troy Killjoy on 25.11.2011 at 21:53 it's much easier to distinguish between old Katatonia and old Anathema and such on the one hand and Winter and diSEMBOWELMENT and Coffins and Cianide and such on the other hand

Karelian Isthmus by Amorphis might just fit the profile.

11.12.2011 - 16:26 Written by Lord Clamhandler on 11.12.2011 at 03:49 I started a thread for Dehumanized a year or two ago and didn't get too many replies. Prophecies Foretold is a classic album and they deserve more respect. But, I'm not sure that they really fall into the death/doom category.

The band appreciates the kind words, flyingmachine, and yes, Prophecies is definitely a classic. The new Dehumanized material is picking up right where that album left off, you'll really dig it. Thanks again for all the support!

Hmmm, what about Saint Vitus or Sleep? Those are some of the first doom metal bands i ever listened to. As for The Sword, are they considered doom metal?

13.12.2011 - 20:20 Written by [user id=101272] on 13.12.2011 at 17:54 Oh no that was just a generalization - as in doom that isn't death doom. I forget "traditional doom" is a genre sometimes. Since it sounds the exact same as just "doom", but I guess since it's like "old" doom then it needs its own adjective. >>

I'm looking for a label to release the first full-album of Wanhoop. Wanhoop released a split-album back in 2004 on NephereX and did a couple of shows with bands as Shining, Forgotten Tomb& even My Dying Bride (on a festival). I recorded some cross-fading streams of new tracks and put it into a youtube video, so the listener can have a sneak preview of the style in 2 minutes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uhrt_vUbFII&feature=plcp We still have to record the album for real. Feedback is always appreciated.
