Doom metal

Doom metal is a form of heavy metal music that emerged as a recognized sub-genre during the first half of the 1980s.

Both the music and the lyrics intend to evoke a sense of dread or impending doom, and often an atmosphere of despair. Read more…|Edit this Artist photo: Old Man Gloom

When taking their recent material into consideration, Katatonia and Anathema definitely shouldn't be top artists here. [2] Electric Wizard and My Dying Bride should sit at the top.

As much as I love Katatonia and Anathema, they definitely shouldn't be top artists here.
