My Dying Bride...

<< < (3/7) > >>

arkturus:
Yes, it's a pretty specific metal niche that's been around since the early '90s but is pretty much dead by now.

A few seminal doomdeath bands:
My Dying Bride
Anathema
Katatonia

--- Quote from: arkturus ---Brave Murder Day not all that doomy? Gasp! On a side note, I highly enjoy Katatonia's whiny "suicide rock" phase as well as their doomdeath years. My friends and I love to sing along to "Criminals."

Hmm yeah, I haven't sampled the range of Katatonias career enough. I think it's the vocals that detract from the doominess, I'm not sure though.

torg:
My Dying Bride are gods! Nuff said.

DeathrockZombie:
My Dying Bride ARE Gods.

I think they're one of the only metal bands that write songs that aren't really 9-minute Guitar Clinics in disguise. Turn Loose The Swans and Angel and the Dark River are my fave.

I really like certain tracks off of 34.540505% complete. The new one, "Songs of Darkness, Words of Light" is really unbelievable too!!

Whilst I'm a fan of a lot of that kind of music (Opeth!!!!), I know just what you mean. MDB perfected the art of slow, relatively simple songs that just sound awesome.

I'm yet to get a proper listen of  34.540505% complete, but agree on there being some damn decent stuff on 'Songs of Darkness, Words of Light'. Catherine Blake!!

Turn Loose the Swans is still their best though, imo, just for the quantity of awesome tracks. Sear Me MCMXC III, The Crown of Sympathy, The Snow in my Hand, etc.
