Re: The Recommendation Thread

[Everlost]

When you like new Paradise Lost and new Katatonia you might want to give newer Anathema (Alternative 4) a try. All bands who moved from doom/death towards a more "poppy sound", more depressive/doom rock/metal.

[GameFreac1]

Hmm DD bored the pants off me when they released their last album....but i might try them again i the coming days.

The first album is boring but the new one is awesome......give em another chance

[Headbanger]

I'm looking for some nice doom metal.
Bands I already enjoy are: Sahg, Katatonia (new), Paradise Lost (new), Candlemass (with Messiah), Lamented Souls, Another Messiah, Havayoth, Black Sabbath and I think those are all of them.

I need more.

Try Reverend Bizarre's first album. And Harvey Milk's Special Wishes is a real killer.
And basically you can any early classic doom band: Saint Vitus, The Obsessed, Warhorse...

I haven't checked them all, but I'm mostly searching for doom metal with songs that have normal length. Long songs tend to bore me after a while.

EDIT: Saint Vitus and The Obsessed seem to have normal song lenghts, what album(s) should I start with.

I was actually talking about "Dismantling Devotion". Thats their most recent album yeah? I dunno why, i got it when i first released and it just never stuck with me.

To each their own I guess

Here's a tricky request.
Black Metal is a real terra incognita for me. Can you guys recommend me some bands? I'm looking for harsh and raw stuff, lo-fi production, without synths, and possibly non-NSBM.

[Pedro]

Ildjarn is raw as fuck.

[evil scientist]

Thanks, judging by previews/mypsace, it might just be something I'm looking for.

[Pedro]

Oh yeah, Ildjarn also has Ambient material.

[evil scientist]

Yeah, noticed that. I'm getting Forest Poetry right now.

[Pedro]

Cool. I like Whispering Breeze and Chill of the Night. =D

For Saint Vitus I like Hallow's Victim. It has two of my favorite SV songs on it, War Is Our Destiny and White Stallions

Cool. I like Whispering Breeze and Chill of the Night. =D

Thanks for the advice, I like this album!
