IIRC Dr. X started a similar topic in the old forum. Anyway, I thought I just as well a start a new one here. With Traditional Doom Metal I mean Sabbath-based bluesy Doom with clean vocals. Thus the thread is meant for bands like for Saint Vitus, Trouble and Candlemass but not My Dying Bride or Katatonia.

Anyway, my favourite Doom Metal bands are the following:
Black Sabbath
Blood Thirsty Demons
Candlemass
Dantesco
Doomsword
Internal Void
Orodruin
Pagan Altar
Pale Divine
Pentagram
Place Of Skulls
Reverend Bizarre
Saint Vitus
Solitude Aeturnus
Spirit Caravan
The Gates Of Slumber
Trouble
Witchcraft
Witchfinder General

Other good Doom bands I listen to are:
Abdullah
Acrimony
Against Nature
Begotten
Bigelf
Blood Farmers
Cathedral
Confessor
Count Raven
Doomshine
Earth Flight
Eight Hands For Kali
Electric Wizard
Forsaken (MLT)
Goatsnake
Grand Magus
Great Coven
Isole
Krux
Leather Nun
L'impero Delle Ombre
Merca
Minotauri
Mood
Penance
Sorcery
Spiritus Mortis
Starchild
The Hidden Hand
The Obsessed
Thunderstorm
Veni Domine
Voodooshock
Wall Of Sleep
Well Of Souls (US)
Witch Mountain
World Below

The list became quite extensive... Anyway, any more Trad. Doomsters around here (besides Dr. X)? And in case, yes, what are your favourites?

This last month I had been obsessively listening to the Yidhra self-titled ep, a release I somehow missed last year... first class traditional doom, I hope they will become something big with the years.

Anyone here into Realmbuilder? I find Summon The Stone Throwers to be a really nice listen.


Somehow it grates on mmy nerves every time I listen to it so not enjoyable at alll of rme. And nothing doomy either more orless thrid rate nwobhm with some epic touches to my ears.

Really? I hear lots of Cirith Ungol in there (one of my favourite bands). Also quite a bit of Pagan Altar in the riffing. Sure, it's quite NWOBHM influenced but the doom is there.

I hear those two in there as well but as almost third rate versions of them. Pagan Altar I already consider borderline doom and Cirith Ungol even less.
Oh btw I am a huge Pagan Altar fan myself and also enjoy Cirith Ungol immensely.

I think it is. But sometimes it's also Epicus Doomicus Metallicus.

I would say that it is the best album that has been released since 2000 (when Maiden did Brave New World). Personally I have never been a big fan of Candlemass though.

I think Dido's Lament from Purcell's opera "Dido and Aeneas" (1688) is the first doom song ever made. This jewel of Hopelessness surpasses all doom songs I've heard ...

It's a sad day for doom metal.

The legendary forum Hellride music finally announced that in two weeks the website will close forever. I used to check the old threads from there and I managed to found quite some great bands. That place was like the myspace of doom metal musicians. R.I.P.

Kypck The war in Ukraine was to destroy KYPCK, which sings in Russian - now the heavy band tells its fans the truth about the attack: "Make things clear for them and Putin"

I think its end of this band. Might loose a lot of fans and incomes and touring, maybe they should change languages interesting article

Sorcerer updates:

Sunday afternoon and the fall is almost here making perfect time for some somber, gloomy doom. Sorcerer are finishing up on ideas for the new 4th upcoming album, there are plenty!! 🔥🧙‍♂️🔥We’ll soon start to lay down demos and choosing which ones to go with. Fun and scary at the same time. We know we won’t disappoint you but it still is a labour of anxiety as we go into the recording later this year.
With this we wish you a nice end of the weekend and stay doomy 🫶🔥🧙‍♂️🔥
