Doom Metal Favorites

I'm not much for trad doom, and I really dislike the stoner/sludge variety, so most of what you'll get here is doom of the funeral variety. Enjoy.

Kinda gay, sure, but whatever, it's still awesome.

The lyrics can get damn near unbearable, but the riffs are so great they make up for it.

Incredible release from a band that whose music would quickly rush to the shitter after their second album.

Epicus Doomicus Metallicus


This band, but particularly this album, transcend what I often see as the limitations of traditional doom. It is as dark, endearing and spine-chilling as the best of funeral doom, and its sense of the dramatic is seldom matched in all of metal. If you guys can rec any trad album that leans towards this (as opposed to the more rock-oriented Saint Vitus/Trouble variety) then please namedrop in the comments.
