A question to stoner/doom specialists

Lucifer's Son · **Joined:** Mon Jan 05, 2009 9:52 pm **Posts:** 2016

A good while back (I'd say mid to late 90s but it could also be early 00s) I heard a stoner/doom band with a singer that sounded almost exactly like 70s era Ozzy Osbourne. Do you have any idea which band I'm talking about? I've been trying to remember the name but nothing came to mind and all the bands I've tried over the years weren't it.
Please, help me!

Could it be Count Raven?

or Sheavy?

Those would be the first two with "Ozzy clone" vocalists that come to mind. Let me know if its neither one.

Sheavy, I was thinking. It could also be Witchcraft, but I suppose that would be a bit obvious.

Ok, search's over! It was sHEAVY! :dio:

Which of their album is the best ?

Damn, that singer really sounds like Ozzy. Maybe Gzr and Iommi should recruit him since Ozzy is a bit burned out nowadays. :wink:

I've only heard the last three, but if you like them I doubt you can go wrong with any of them.

Even though they aren't really stoner, I was thinking Witchfinder General. Their singer sounds a lot like Ozzy.

If you are looking for good Stoner bands check out Orange Goblin. They are pretty sick...

Neither one of them sound like Ozzy if you ask me. I've seen people say Zeeb sounds just like him before, but I just don't hear it.
