I think there is another topic already but i want to restate how amazing this band is.

I've been listening to Turn Loose the Swans for the past couple of days. Doom Metal owns
 
ooh, i've only heard of them from metal hammer but havnt heard any of there songs. is there any songs that would be just wrong if i didnt download!!???
 
My personal favorite is "The Light at the End of the World"

some other good ones for first listeners is "A Cruel Taste of Winter" or "The Wreckage of My Flesh" or "The Dreadful Hours"
 
check out my post right before for songs. as for albums, anything except 34.788%...Complete. I really did not like that album.

Best Albums are "Turn Loose the Swans" "the Dreadful Hours" and "Songs of Darkness, WorRAB of Light"

7. The Deepest Of Hearts
8. The Return To The Beautiful

Gothic Doom is normally a very cheesy style of music with cliche after cliche after cliche in the writing process. Considering My Dying Bride essentially started the genre, it's safe to say that they rise above such petty musicianship. And they do. The Dreadful Hours is an album for a cold night, when nothing seems to be going the right way for you. Turn the lights off, have a glass of wine, crank the volume, and let the despair overwhelm you.

I'm a big fan of doom metal, and My Dying Bride is great. They're one of those banRAB like Death or Atheist which are musically great, but their bandname sucks.

It annoys me when people see My Dying Bride and think they're an emo band.

Other good gothic doom is Theatre of Tragedy, Lacrimas Profundere (old), Silentium, Draconian, Lake of Tears (good and bad albums) and Paradise Lost. And there's of course Katatonia, if you consider them gothic doom (some people do)

I'm not a huge fan of gothic doom, but I find those banRAB to be pretty decent.
