    Good point with pallbearer being doom light. Probably great band to listen for newcomers to metal and probably more mainstream vocal style will appeal to the ladies?. Illimitable dolor's self titled debut is also very good doom light music. There a Aussie band formed in honour of there band mate who died I think in car crash. Great background music when doing DIY, washing the dishes etc. 

    My wife and I had this debate the singer of Mastodon and Pallbearer sound similar but the pace in which these two bands are completely different, I forgive her as she isn't a noob just not a big fan of all the metal sub-genre's I have introduced her to.

    I some times listen to Deathcore. It's not all bad. What Deathcore bands do you like. 

     

    Also what doom music are you listening to. I pre ordered pallbearers new album. The preview track is great. Pallbearer do solid albums so I'm sure I'll like it. Think there more doom light but I still like there music. 

    ahhh Pallbearer is like the band that you want to get down with the ladies with, it's heavy but not as harsh so someone isn't necessarily in to metal but can listen with you.

    Good to hear from you. Definitely doom for me is like saying life can be terrible but I'm just gonna carry on as long as I can. Fuck you, as know ones lasting forever and too many people have sad deaths. But that's just my view. 

    slow's dantalion album is very good with huge Himalayan crunching bass lines, wow so powerful, worth checking out. your description of what people like about doom is what lots say they like about it including me sometimes 

    Recent album I got was officium triste. It's quite good with big influences of early paradise lost, my dying bride but adds some thing to those bands.

    Of course that candlemass epicus doomicus album has some absolute amazing live tracks on it. So been listening alot to those. 

    Your right some times you need a break from doom Music by watchin something funny 

    Been listening to more deathcore bands I know i know it's whack blah bah some of it has decent hooks and breakdowns, all of which can be forgiven if they aren't christian hardcore....

    Just heard candlemass's first album following your recommendation. Epicus doomicus metalicus or whatever it's called. Really good album will probably get a sneaky download without telling the wife ?  Absolute classic and more eclectic than was expecting but in a good way but very much doom. Ive heard before metal was defined by tons of subgenres bands were a bit more eclectic in whaat styles they played. Am I way off on this? Also always assumed opeth had this very original sound but seems like they were inspired by the great candlemass as to me certain aspects of sections are similar. 

    Yeah man that album is so rad.... I think a lot of underrated bands get passed on..... Right now I have this fascination with battle doom Monolord & Conan so heavy so bad ass it blows down doors with heavy bass riffs, easily one of those bands  that crushes hope and spirit definitely a highly recommended.

    So disparaging and hopeless to see the light it really brings shit home in these bleak times. Fuck I need to watch a big goofy dog video now..... Enjoy  \m/

    Hey, I definitely feel Candlemass is worth some attention. I'll answer you without fact checking, so watch out that I might say things untrue and misspell titles and names even. Go ahead and listen to the first album first. It is call Epicus Doomicum metallicus , which is not good Latin at all, but scholarship is maybe not the bands strong suit. Their strong suit is being super heavy and fucking rocking in the utmost. That first album is not long, and has a tune called Demons Gate, which is fantastic. If I turn out to be wrong about Demon's Gate and it is on another album, make sure you get to hear that song. The vocalist on that first album is good, and he never did another until their most recent album. The drummer is astounding on that first album, and as far as I can tell, he has never been on another published recording. I don't know his name but it is Something "weasel" Something. We metal heads, we live in a world full of incredible drummers, but sometimes listening to Epicus I'm blown away by the drumming. What became of that guy? I don't know.

      When you've heard that debut, move on to any album where Mesiah Mercoli does the vocals, and watch a video with him in it, like the music video for "bewitched" for example. Dude is big, has huge curly dark hair and performs in Franciscan robes. It's not to be missed.

      That dude Rob Loe, or however you spell it from Solitude Eaturnus recorded several Candelmass albums for better or worse. His is a dingus as far as I can tell, but not a bad vocalist. Try King of the Gray Islands (maybe not the correct title, but maybe close). 

      I really like the album Death Magic Doom, I think it has both "The Bloody Barronese" and some tune about a sea monster called... I don't know "monster of the Deep" is not right, great tune though.

      Lot's of Candlemass albums if you like them, and they seemed to keep coming.

     

    Yo that Bewitched video is so rad, epic, and hilarious it makes me giggle like a little kid.   Plus the singer looks like a metal version of Donkey Lips from Salute Your Shorts.

    I have heard noothgrush and there pretty good. Definitely doom metal bits with big crunching chords  Oh yeahhhhh??☠️but other styles in there too somebits sounded a bit like death metal influence

    Will definitely check out dystopia though on your recommendation as I really need to listen to less black metal and will take my mind of the fu***##Corona virus news.       Pallbearer are excellent but you need them with lots of bass and I mean loads and very loud too. The risk of neighbours complaining is worth it in my opinion ?

    I've been riding my bike hard as shit listening to Pallbearer and Salems Pot swooo sick like those redneck kids in Gummo so badass!

     

    In my opinion when riding bikes or skating is to have a soundtrack for random encounters, life is not meant to lived in fearl but to avoid most humans in general.

    Candlemass has to rate for depth, raw power and magisty.

    Cathedral is on my list for it's artistic scope, I feel that it's really serious about making a supreme effort, even if they have a particularly silly side as well.

    Manilla Road does the rough and ready rock and roll thing the best, better than pentagram, more direct even than Saint Vitus I think.

    Cirith Ungal because their music fills me with a thrilling sense of dread.

     

    That's my list of four, and Cathedral is the dispensable selection, because if the question was this "If you could have all entire output of four given doom bands given to you on vinyl, what would those bands be?" I might choose Pagan Altar instead, I don't know.

    What Cirith Ungal album should I start with?  I missed the mark with certain bands and finding their uniqueness.

     

    For ex. I had head Mastadon and seen them but at the time I wasn't for it as I saw it as a hybrid of different genres which I wasn't thrilled about. Now that I have time to devour and appreciate it, it really speaks volumes and talent.

    I guess you need something to keep you going during this odd Corona period. I get by eating unhealthy amount of sweets as I gave up drinking for health reasons. 

     

    Re the music Will have to check out some of them bands but with long work hours  free time is hard to come by. Which is your favourite band of the 4. 

    For me I like Dystopia as it covers every aspect of punk/metal. Many bands over haven't explored this option.

    hell yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Lord_Man_Hammer_ is spot on with pallbearer, every album amazing and very good live as well. though not sure my cousin liked them, has not spoken to me much since about the gig, pallbearer are very good and people should give them a go great songs,lyrics, vocal;s music

    2 nixa's latest album opus tierra is really good. I mean this album should be really big as its catchy, got great vocals, interesting lyrics and the production they got on the album is amazing the riffs are as massive as the himalayers  and this is for a band that pretty much died and had to reinvent themselves.

     

    illimitable dolors debut record is great. after the death of there band mate they created this band to pay tribute to there fallen brother. an outstanding doom band from oz but maybe that's the select few to be honest as they seem to hbave a small following

     

    4 to be honest there is no 4 yet as I listen to toomuch black metal and funeral doom as well ? 

    I smoke entirely too much weed and have been in isolation for awhile now. I know I am okay.

     

    If I were to bring in another micro doom/sludge list bands Noothgrush, Dystopia, EHG, Grief/Brainoil.

    Music you could really bang your skull to.

  9. Although I've joined in on the hate for this band longtime ago (ICP kids were loosely associated with this band) and yes I was a fan for their first 3 albums. I've recently started listening to it with a fond new appreciation.  From their selftitled to their recent incarnation they've taken many dives into some weird genres and lineup changes.

     

    This is why I've changed my opinion on them they've stayed the same which is admirable as they've pioneered a less than appreciated subgenre called  numetal, filled with confused misunderstood kids looking for an identity in this world.

     

    Although it wasn't my first taste into the metal community as that was a cannibal corpse and a lesser known band My Apathy  that brought me in the fold for music venue shows.

    What made me greatly identify with this band was a few personal issues that happened to me and few friends as well, we bonded over the pain pleasure and enjoyed each others company. I was also a very confused kid who lived in the suburbs in the rural bible belt who listened to anything and everything that was hard and heavy during the 90's music was an outlet that you had to go blindly in to based on record covers or word of mouth (no internet just yet) but soon followed after the life is peachy album.

     

    For those wondering if this is a loveletter or a confession I'd say it is both for the band in general and those homies I miss during that time, hopefully life dealt you a good hand and RIP to those that have passed we'll meet in Valhalla.

     

     

  10. Having been involved in many music venues and promotions albeit bands I've been in. How do say this without sounding like a snob.

     I find Pentagram as a whole a great band especially the early years, however do to Bobby's recent arrest for beating up his elderly mum I find it hard to respect anyone who puts hands on an elderly woman especially since she housed him for many many many many years.
