I've never had much of an appreciation for Doom due to lack of exposure, so I chose this band to pop my Doom cherry.  I'm listening to Sinamorata at the moment, and really digging it.  With a little patience, I think I could be a fan.

Any 'My Dying Bride' fans/haters?  Please share your thoughts; I'm curious!

My Doom cherry is still relatively intact.  Not much time at this point to listen to too much.  I know I will eventually get the chance, though.

They're a pretty good band. I like atmospheric, European doom. Green Carnation (one of my favorites), Anathema, some Paradise Lost are all great. Even Amorphis and Opeth fall under the doom category (so your cherry actually is popped Voodoo!).
Candlemass is also an amazing band.
Pentagram is legendary.

I'm not the biggest Sabbath fan (mostly since I despise Osbourne), but they are actually the first doom metal band.


What you used to love now, you're gonna adore. With Charmin Ultra, less is more. Cha Cha Cha, Charmin.

I never would've considered Sabbath to be Doom.  I guess you're right though!  Green Carnation is Doom too?  They have the chick vocalist, right?  I've only heard a few songs, but I thought they were Euro-goth.  I'll check them out next.  Sun O)))) really ruined this genre for me, so I'm trying to keep an open mind. 

Okay, so my cherry has been massaged, but never fully popped.

Green Carnation doesn't have a chick vocalist. They are definitely not Euro-goth. Their first two albums are doom. After that, they went toward a psychedelic rock sound but still kept that doom feeling in the music.

Don't bash Sunn O)))! I love their music. It's so weird and creepy. You cannot look at them from a musical point of view. Look at them from an ambient noise point of view. That's basically what they do.

Another great doom band is Thorr's Hammer. They're from Washington but their lyrics are in Norwegian. I think they only have one album, I forget what it's called at the moment.
They have a chick vocalist but they are not gothy at all. She can growl like a man and her singing voice is really dark and fits the doom sound wonderfully.
She is Norwegian by the way. I think she was just living in the US for a while. But she doesn't really have much of an accent in the music. She sort of sounds like an American singing in Norwegian.

But isn't the chick who sings on the newer Cradle of Filth albums the chick from Green Carnation?  I've always thought that for some reason...I guess someone needs to do some research.  I'm shocked that I'm this far out in left field.

I'm not bashing Sun O)))!  My live experience was horrific, yes, but I do respect what they do.  It's genius really, but just not my thing, and I doubt it will ever be.  They were my first true exposure to the genre so now when I think of Doom, I relate it to Sun O))), and I'm thankful to know now that I am wrong in this thought.  That's all...

I've heard of Thorr's Hammer before, maybe from the board, I don't know.  I've never listened to it though.  I think I should probably familiarize myself with bands who write their lyrics in English before moving on to Norwegian lyrics.

Lyrics don't mean anything. Find music you like, that's all. There's no order as to which bands you can check out.
