A great concept, but bands in this sub-sub-genre seem to be extremely difficult to come across. Anyone mind helping me out? The only one I really know about is Culted.

Heh, I was going to say Culted when I saw the name of the thread.

I don't think there are many bands doing this type of thing. Have you tried Nortt?

I can only think of some funeral doom bands. Dictator, perhaps?

Listening to some stuff from Galgenfrist right now. Good stuff, but a bit more ambient-oriented than I was hoping for.

Same as above, good music, but a bit slower than what I'm looking for.

Thanks for the recommendations all the same, though. I'll continue my search.

I know I have no recommendations, but the folks on MA have a recommendation thread for stuff like that. They can give you a lot of different recommendations. Try that bro

Thanks to Last.FM, I found a band called Raventale that sounds EXACTLY like what i was hoping to find. Sounds almost like a blackened version of Swallow The Sun or Draconian. I'll be listening to this band a helluva lot within the next couple weeks, I have a feeling.

Anymore since last year? Doom Metal is awesome and I don't know why this section never gets any posts.

Idk if you guys are still here but woods of Ypres may be what your looking for. Try woods 2 and woods 3 for the black doom. Woods 2 especially. Woods 5 may be in my top 5 albums for 2012. Though there is less black influence than on woods 2 and woods 3. I think woods 2 may be exactly what your looking for though.

Woods 5 the black metal is very much overshadowed by the doom influence. But a great album none the less.

I liked "Pursuit of the Sun & Allure of the Earth" (not sure what number that is) way back when, but then I thought Woods of Ypres became too soft. I see their last album got a bunch of praise from yourself and others though, so maybe I'll give it a shot.

That's woods two you mentioned. They totally changed sounds you are absolutely correct. Woods 5 is more doom rock with a touch of black metal in the vocals of certain songs.

Haha I try to push woods 5 on everyone. It's such a good album. It takes a couple spins for the melodies and vocal hooks to catch on but if you give it the time it's really good.

Besides woods 5 woods 2 is thier best album. It was the perfect blend of doom and black metals in my opinion. After that album he started phasing the black more and more out. Woods 4 has some good tracks as does 3 but they aren't great albums as a whole.

I could go on and on about woods but I think I covered it all. Oh fuck it. The lyrics on woods 5 are what hooked me. They mostly are about death but it's not a depressing album it's actually uplifting. The lack of a afterlife and basically enjoying the time you have here on earth because this is all there is are the lyrical themes for the most part. They take on a prophetic meaning though since he died right after the album was recorded. That adds a weight and meaning to the lyrics in my opinion.

Ok I'm done. Haha

Dragged Into Sunlight is sorta as if Anaal Nathrakh did a doom/drone album...

I've never listened to them I'm sad to say. I've heard good things though. You like them Trapt? If you do what album would you start with?

Edit: I have listened to anaal nathrakh though. A lot.

I only know the album, Hatred for Mankind and I think it's awesome. I think it has that weird misanthropic blackened vibe that AN has of just spitting venom distilled into the sound of a doom album with moments of droning. It's interesting, and it grows on you.
