Funeral Doom

I've been getting in Funeral Doom a great deal recently. Very heavy, slow, and depressing. Most songs last greater than 15 minutes (with some exceptions) and feature very low vocals and haunting guitar lines. Themes are very dark ranging from death to death and sometimes death.

Some excellent banRAB:

Ahab
Skepticism
Monolithe
Catacorabs
Wormphlegm
Thergothon

I have at least one album from all of these banRAB and can reccommend others if need be. Just ask :)
 
I upped a few for another board.

Monolithe - Monolithe I

I reccomend the Ahab or Monolithe first. They're more "accessible".
 
I've heard them described as "doom death" but they lack proper death metal elements in my opinion. "Second wave doom metal" is another description I've seen them tagged with that seems to fit slightly better, though is kind of non-descript.
 
I have Angel Of Distress and I spin it from time to time. I screwed up the Ahab upload and am re-doing it now. Check back in 20 and grab it. It's great stuff.
 
Which is why they aren't Funeral Doom.

I'm not just splitting hairs here. The guitar riRAB don't really count either. They're closer to Electric Wizard than any Funeral Doom band. Go to Ahab's myspace, or get at me online and I'll send you a sampler or some actual Funeral Doom.
