Doom metal appreciation thread[views:12234][posts:116]______________________________ [Sep 3,2008 9:26pm - Hoser ""] There we go.... I sincerely appreciate My Dying Bride and Agalloch. 2 of the greatest bands in the WHOLE world. If you disagree I will post more political banter simply to start a massive fire under the toes of the weak minded liberal inside all of you. |
| ______________________________ [Sep 3,2008 9:29pm - BenFo ""] Doom is utterly wonderful. Neck in neck with melodic death as my favorite genre. |
| ________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 9:31pm - Martins ""] Straight up doom or funerallllll doom? I love Agalloch. I've never listened to My Dying Bride. Any recommendations? One thing I hate about the modern wave of doom metal is that most of them seem to be Black Sabbath clones. |

One thing I hate about the modern wave of doom metal is that most of them seem to be Black Sabbath clones. Yea that shit is usually pretty lame. I do like some sludge / stoner shit, but the melodic Euro shit is where its at. Check out... Saturnus (SICK!) Hanging Garden Swallow the Sun Ask for more if you don't kill yourself. |

| ________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 9:47pm - Martins ""] Wow, I only listened to literally 3 seconds of the second song on Saturnus' myspace and I'm already hooked. I can't dl that shit right now but I sure as hell am going to. |

One thing I hate about the modern wave of doom metal is that most of them seem to be Black Sabbath clones. My Dying Bride is fucking SICK. One of my best pals in the whole world introduced me to MDB.....Dan from Shroud of Bereavement. My Dying Bride....absolutely is AMAZING. Try the album "A Line of Deathless Kings." My thoughts are that if you sincerely love doom....you will ADORE this. |

| ____________________________________________ [Sep 3,2008 10:11pm - ConquerTheBaphomet ""] I wouldn't consider Agalloch a Doom Metal band exclusively. I would put them under the Progressive/Folk/Doom category I guess. Also, check out: Officium Triste Draconian (some Gothic elements) Virgin Black (some Gothic elements) Nortt Novembers Doom Paramaecium |

Yeah, because we all know Hydrahead spearheaded the Doom Metal genre. They're not even a Doom label. Stephen O'Malley released Khanate's first two albums on Southern Lord and then Aaron Turner decides he wants to put out Capture and Release; subsequently trying to turn Hydrahead into Southern Lord and Battle Kommand Records. The bands people have listed in this thread have nothing to do with the Neurosis/ISIS clone genre that popped up. I don't see current or former metalcore kids rocking out to Katatonia's Brave Murder Day, diSEMBOWELMENT's Trascendence into the Peripheral, Corrupted's El Mundo Frio, or Mournful Congregation's The Monad of Creation....

Wormphlegm Senthil Funeralium Worship Corrupted And yes, listen to My Dying Bride up until that last horrible album "Like Gods of the Sun". Album grinds my gears. |

Funny that in 2001 I saw kids wearing XdickheadX and whatnot on their shirts and in 2003 I see the same kids are wearing entombed, sleep, om, etc shirts. hydrahead spearheaded that quite a bit. there's the whole other side of doom where metal kids got into doom from REAL metal, but those bands are more obscure/elite...whatever term you want to use. they never gained the popularity that some of the bands who were affiliated with hydrahead (ie touring with hydrahead bands, splits, side projects, etc) got. but i got the wah wah wah i was expecting and from a person with less X's in the username. cool! 420 go!

Wah wah, haha. I thought this was a forum where people discuss and debate? Doom has been around for a long time, and if you count Sabbath than it's pretty much the earliest form of Metal. With any genre you're going to have kids getting into other bands through other musicians/acts. Exposure happens. I just think your approach was like saying Metal in general has now become "stale" because the "nu" fad has faded and now major labels are trying to once again cater to more traditional metal acts. I agree that Neurosis and ISIS helped kids get into other forms of "art" metal, or whatever the hell you want to call it. Same way bands like Fear Factory, Slayer, etc got kids to venture into other areas of underground metal. But to credit Hydrahead as the illuminators of the Doom genre just because you suddenly see more than 2 people wearing a Sleep shirt who are under the age of like 30 is going a bit far. You're saying this thread should have been posted three years ago and Doom metal has become a stale genre? Doom existed before 3 years ago and will continue on. I mean, weren't you one of those "Xenter whatever hereX" kids once too? |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 4,2008 11:02am - madoakdevin nli ""] i also saw alot of those kids i mention at ocean shows back in the same era. but what do i know? i'm too fashionable for doom as i was once told. |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 4,2008 11:03am - madoakdevin nli ""] never said i wasn't. i can talk shit on myself, too. |
| ___________________________________________ [Sep 4,2008 11:05am - Mikeofdecrepitude ""] Well why is it a matter of talking shit on kids? If they liked shitty music at one point and now they're into sick bands like the above mentioned, thats a good thing. Some kids are poseurs and claim to like music they really don't just to fit in but I don't think that's the majority of cases. People wake up. |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 4,2008 11:08am - madoakdevin nli ""] i wasn't talking shit on kids. i was talking shit to spark someone to argue with me on a messageboard. you were the only one who replied. |
