from the sound of it you'rs would be more to my liking haha. I went ahead and ordered stuff to make a simple blender. we'll see how it goes.
You've got a good list, but I would be remiss if I didn't insist that you add evoken's antithesis of light to that list. There's a lot of great and unique bands in the genre, as well as millions of forgettable boring shitty bands. I honestly haven't been listening to as much funeral doom lately, so suggestions are a little buried right now.D.o.S. wrote:confession time: All those funeral doom bands sound the same to me (aka like Type O Negative but sometimes with violins). What albums should I listen to to correct this?
I also really dig Evoken, but they're kind of on that border of funeral doom and (gothic) death doom. I feel it shouldn't be considered pure funeral doom like the other bands listed (just for reference of course), but Antithesis of Light is amazing.misterstomach wrote:You've got a good list, but I would be remiss if I didn't insist that you add evoken's antithesis of light to that list.

Same here. Those damn keyboards just sound like the band is going to break into Europe's "Final Countdown" and go "PSYCHE! You thought this was going to get heavy at some point".misterstomach wrote:You've got a good list, but I would be remiss if I didn't insist that you add evoken's antithesis of light to that list.

Aw YEAH. That's the stuff. Kinda like a more spare-less metulz Volition with some tasty noise rock guitar and raw as fuck vocals.D.o.S. wrote:If you don't know Mugwort, they're pretty cool:

I have successfully missed them live a whole bunch of times recently, but I hear great things.
There are many funeral doom bands that are like that, but bands like Colosseum and Mournful Congregation are positively crushing with power. Colosseum does use those atmospheric synths, but in a really dark way.grindonomicon wrote:Same here.

Any other bands like Moss, Amarok, Loss, Coffins, Hooded Menace, Enth, etc. I'm missing? Or new killer sludgecore? I guess funeral doom isn't my thing. Too much atmospheric melody, no crushing power.
