holy shmoly
I've wanted some good funeral doom. Always had a hard time finding it.
what've you heard?
here it is by the way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10q1ZJyLXFk
album cover of the year
Pall Bearer is about it.
Yeah that looks fucking rad.
Pallbearer's not funeral doom
then what are they?
just doom
The only album I listened to was Sorrow and Extinction
Definitely seemed like funeral doom
funeral doom is way slower, usually much drearier, and usually has guttural vocals
They have that diminished sound though, I think that's what got me
idk
this is pretty rad
takes a while to get going but yeah
two of my favorite funeral doom tracks: the first song on this (it's not uploaded separately) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4a8r_-Gh5pw
kinda reminds me of Ahab, the voice
22 minutes long
yeah Ahab is funeral doom, at least they used to be (haven't heard them in a long time so I don't know if they still are)
WHALE AHEAD
that Esoteric song is easily one of my favorites
more melodic than the others, guitars weaving all over the place
right on man you've given me some good shit to keep me busy for a minute, it's been a while since I've been shown some good doom
you know Elder?
yeah Lore was one of the better albums of 2015
haven't heard Reflections yet
I'm not a huge fan of stoner in general though
so, if you like Esoteric/Asunder, some other bands to check out:
Evoken
Thergothon
Winter
Disembowelment
Unholy
Tyranny
Mournful Congregation
Skepticism
Ataraxie
Monolithe
Catacombs
and I would have added Ahab but you know them already
Shape of Despair are great too but a little cheesy sometimes
the first Pantheist album too
I got to see them live before they started making shitty albums
Really interesting atmospheric black metal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hu46kJytefE&list=PLZdLwpwWupjqCEL6tJ4f5m9nBewa5X7tD
one of my all-time favorites, and incredibly obscure
wish they'd get more exposure
