Trouble - Legendary Chicago Doom...

...that no one ever fucking talks about. Hometown heroes for me, though. Sabbath inspired Doom for the ages. Legendary. So lets talk about them. Anyone else a fan?

I am.

Psalm 9, The Skull, Trouble, Plastic Green Head... all killer albums.

Simple Mind Condition should be good.

You're right; nobody seems to talk about them.

They have "it," man. Even if you hate the fucking genre and their sound altogether, when that first taste is done, you're intrigued. You're willing to give it another shot... Like taking a step back, and realizing they posses that one element you are always looking for, long term love, ingested and understood at first sight. Errr... Listen.

I have Run to the Light and it's boring as fucking hell.

agreed. the 3 albums I heard from Trouble (including one I once owned) were quite boring indeed... the thing is I like doom but I just find Trouble not to be a very good band... :roll:

I hate to agree.. I respect Trouble for being influential and things but they don't hold my attention. perhaps I'll try them again in the interests of fairness and döööööm.

I do respect Trouble too for their influence on the american (and maybe more) doom scene too. just, their "followers" are better than they'd ever dreamt to be...

I have got The Skull and have listened to it just once. It din't "grab me by the balls", but the guitar work was fantastic. But one doom/heavy metal band that really grabbed my attention is Memory Garden. I think their album Mirage is brilliant ! Think will give Trouble a few more listens once I get Memory Garden out of my player.

The Skull is my favorite album from them, so I hope it delivers for you.
