I've been really into doom/ambient/sparse type stuff lately. I will share some of my favorite bands with you. I hope you will share some as well!

Saw this band last night. Lead singer is a friend of a friend. Great stuff!

I love the way the keyboard player is punching the keys in the Neurosis video. Every metal keyboard player should just be kept backstage.

I saw these guys open for Pallbearer in Boston. They have a keyboard player, but he actually adds a lot of cool ambience to the music. I was skeptical of keys in doom, but they make it work.

I will listen to this stuff when I get the chance. Possibly later tonight when I'm drunk.

I need to get some of this stuff to mellow me out while driving for work. I listen to all sorts of stuff while driving, but something slow and droning might help me not want to kill some of the fuckwits on the roads.

Ha! Hope I can help. I love me some down tuned, slow ass drone shit as of late. I'll keep posting stuff on here till someone tells me to stop..

That Acid King song is awesome! Never thought that a female vocalist would work with these type songs... Heres another band with a female... My favorite song by them I might add...

Neurosis is bast evar. One of my all time favorite bands for sure.

I'm still waiting for the new Neurosis to come out on LP before I pick it up. I hear it's epic. All the dudes from my local music store just went to the sold out show in NYC. I was jealous.

Right here! My band opened for Crowbar year before last; definitely one of my proudest moments


Solitude Aeturnus is the quintessential doom band for me

I have the new Neurosis, but I haven't listened to it thoroughly yet. It usually takes awhile for me to absorb their albums. They are amazing live, but they don't play many shows, and the ones they do tend to be special event types of things. I'm very lucky that I managed to see them when I did.

They're definitely a band who's albums have to be taken in as one large piece, not individual songs IMO...

I can't help but hear the chorus as motorhead are gay. A problem shared and all that

And now I present the best doom record in a long time. Awesome tunes and the tone, oh good god the tone

I listened to it twice yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. Meant to bring it to work today, but forgot.

Me & Kirk Windstein.

We took a piss together @ a Down show

It doesn't get much more lower than Conan...

I know it doesn't really fit in this thread but I'm going to see high on fire tonight.

HoF are a little doomy, and in any case Matt Pike put out some very "low and slow" stuff with Sleep, so it's all good.

I'd love to see HoF live.
