Death Doom Metal

  • Assuck, Obituary & Six Feet Under Members Form Exitsect

    Assuck’s Paul Pavlovich has joined forces with Six Feet Under drummer Greg Gall, Obituary bassist Frank Watkins, Massacre & Denial Fiend guitarist Sam Williams, Murder Suicide Pact’s Joe Kiser and “electronic ornamentator” Aleks Vasic to form Exitsect. Here’s the band’s bio, taken from their MySpace page: Formed in 2008. Dark, experimental, atmospheric, doom-ridden death metal comprised of [...]

  • Coffins “Buried Death”

    Crushing Japanese death doom metallers Coffins are back with their third full length release, Buried Death, after a series of successful split offerings with a number of extreme metal acts. The first full length solo offering by Coffins in two years is a punishing effort, containing 44 minutes of soul draining, head crushing, rib shattering [...]

  • Rune “The End Of Nothing”

    Don’t ever listen to this album if you cannot take the shit life deals out. The music contained within just might give the push you need to blow your worthless brains out. Yeah, I’m being melodramatic but this album makes me feel like there is no hope and the world is huge, swirling [...]

  • My Dying Bride “Songs Of Darkness, Words Of Light”

    I thought Peaceville were officially in the reissuing business by now, but lo and behold, they release a new album by My Dying Bride. Now, to put it severely lightly, My Dying Bride is one of my absolute favorite bands in the history of all music I have ever heard. Turn Loose The Swans is [...]

  • Lunatic Gods “Sitting By The Fire”

    I fucking do not understand. I have just suffered a horrendous attack to my senses . My CD player has been raped!!! Why?? What did I do to deserve this? I mean, sure, I like metal, I put out a ‘zine and it seemed appealing to some people, so I [...]

  • Evoken “Embrace The Emptiness”

    This is Evoken’s first release on Elegy Records, following their Shades Of Night Descending recording on Adipocere Records. Embrace the Emptiness is an excellent display of musicianship on Evoken’s part. To begin with, it isn’t an easy task to write impressive music keeping such a slow pace throughout a recording. Reminiscent of Australia’s Disembowelment (R.I.P.), [...]

  • Coffins & The Arm And Sword Of A Bastard God “Split”

    In recent years I’ve become a greater fan of sludge and doom metal. The band most responsible for this newfound interest in doom is Japan’s Coffins. Their Mortuary In Darkness, Sacrifice to Evil Spirit and The Other Side of Blasphemy efforts have remained in constant and heavy rotation in my stereo since I picked up or [...]

  • Coffins “The Other Side Of Blasphemy”

    Crushing old school darkened death doom metal. This is the only description I can think of to accurately describe the music of Japan’s Coffins. Every riff is a crushing sonic boom of depravity. Imagine legendary old school metal acts Hellhammer and early Celtic Frost fused with Winter and Autopsy, with a sickeningly [...]

  • Coffins “Sacrifice To Evil Spirit”

    When I hear the term "doom" used to describe a style of metal music, the first thing that comes to mind is "Black Sabbath-worship" followed by "New Orleans-flavoured", which usually leads to a feeling of general disgust and disinterest. The sludgy stoner rock that’s passed off as "doom metal" is about as melancholic as [...]

  • Coffins “Mortuary In Darkness”

    I’m discovering more and more Japanese acts that I like. There’s Zombie Ritual, Swarrrm, Bathtub Shitter, and now Coffins. Ironically, I’m not a big doom fan. Outside of Cephalic Carnage’s dips in the genre, Rune, and some other acts, I really don’t listen that often. However, Coffins strikes me right where I need it. This is [...]
