I'm looking for some traditional-styled doom metal with clean vocals. This is important, I want doom with clean vocals only , no death/doom or funeral doom or whatever. Like I said before, I'm really getting into Warning and Reverend Bizarre, so perhaps that might help you all... _________________ NU-MOD Back to top serious buisness Junior Member User is Offline Joined: 29 Aug 2008 Posts: 98 Karma: 2 applaud / smite Location: Portland, Oregon 705.00 Gil Posted: Wed Sep 03, 2008 8:26 pm    Post subject: · Quote rottingjebus wrote: In fact, I need some seriously doom help.

I love both of those band, and let it be noted that I listen to mainly doom metal within the criteria that you specified. _________________ The ravening black worms of madness are devouring the shredded remnants of sanity as I return to my slumbering steel-clad body...but as the dream-veil lifts, I feel my limbs transform, flesh becoming cold stone... enshrouded by a dark mantle of obsidian… Back to top MegaHassan Moderator User is Offline Joined: 05 Sep 2008 Posts: 201 Karma: 3 applaud / smite Location: Lahore, Pakistan 344.70 Gil Posted: Sun Sep 07, 2008 7:57 am    Post subject: · Quote I just listened to this band "The Sleep". I dunno what sort of doom they are but their album Dopesmoker is fucking amazing. I'm looking for more Doom that sounds like The Sleep! _________________ My Facebook, My Youtube, My Last.FM, My Blog Back to top serious buisness Junior Member User is Offline Joined: 29 Aug 2008 Posts: 98 Karma: 2 applaud / smite Location: Portland, Oregon 705.00 Gil Posted: Wed Sep 10, 2008 10:16 pm    Post subject: · Quote MegaHassan wrote: I just listened to this band "The Sleep".

For similar bands, try OM and High on Fire, as both have members from Sleep. _________________ The ravening black worms of madness are devouring the shredded remnants of sanity as I return to my slumbering steel-clad body...but as the dream-veil lifts, I feel my limbs transform, flesh becoming cold stone... enshrouded by a dark mantle of obsidian… Back to top screaminglife Moderator User is Offline Joined: 10 Sep 2008 Posts: 31 Karma: 0 applaud / smite 355.82 Gil Posted: Thu Sep 11, 2008 1:02 am    Post subject: · Quote anyone who loves classic Sabbath style doom, check out Saint Vitus. Grade A doom metal. And Sleep is fantastic. I recommend Sleep's Holy Mountain.

If the answer is yes, then you'll enjoy Saint Vitus. However, if you are more of a My Dying Bride type metal fan, then they aren't for you.

Which album to start with? _________________ I just want to eat your brains.

Among the bands with a more traditional sound my favourite one is Cathedral. I also like Mael Mórdha and Mourning Beloveth, along with most of the names that have already been mentioned, of course. _________________ Sól tér sortna, sígr fold í mar, hverfa af himni heiðar stjörnur; geisar eimi ok aldrnari, leikr hár hiti við himin sjalfan Back to top Martin Member User is Offline Joined: 12 Oct 2008 Posts: 32 Karma: 0 applaud / smite Location: Portland, Oregon LOL 69.16 Gil Posted: Mon Oct 13, 2008 2:07 am    Post subject: · Quote I'm very new to this territory and am looking for help. Currently I have Black Sabbath's Master of Reality (fucking amazing) and Revered Bizarre's In the Rectory of the Bizarre Reverend (bored me to sleep on two occasions), and have heard Sleep's Holy Mountain, an album which is insanely awesome. With this knowledge, besides the obvious Saint Vidus from above posts, which bands would be most highly recommended?

They are similar to Sleep. Listen to the album Dopethrone or Come MY Fanatics... first. Also, traditional doom is a good place to start. Solitude Aternus and Lamented Souls kick ass. _________________ The ravening black worms of madness are devouring the shredded remnants of sanity as I return to my slumbering steel-clad body...but as the dream-veil lifts, I feel my limbs transform, flesh becoming cold stone... enshrouded by a dark mantle of obsidian… Back to top Martin Member User is Offline Joined: 12 Oct 2008 Posts: 32 Karma: 0 applaud / smite Location: Portland, Oregon LOL 69.16 Gil Posted: Mon Oct 13, 2008 2:37 pm    Post subject: · Quote Thanks a lot, I'll keep an eye out for those   Back to top MikeyC Junior Member User is Offline Joined: 28 Sep 2008 Posts: 59 Karma: 0 applaud / smite Location: Australia 59.42 Gil Posted: Thu Oct 30, 2008 5:07 am    Post subject: · Quote I'm still a relative newbie when it comes to doom, but what I can gather is that my favourite kind is funeral with completely growled vocals. As it stands right now, my two favourite doom metal albums are: Shape Of Despair - Angels Of Distress Comatose Vigil - Not A Gleam Of Hope I love those kinds of funeral doom metal, and I haven't really found anything close to them yet...mind you I haven't really been looking that hard, either. Some other albums I enjoy are: Depressed Mode - Ghosts Of Devotion Mournful Congregation - The Monad Of Creation Swallow The Sun - Hope Ahab - The Call Of The Wretched Sea _________________ Error #139003B: No signature detected.
