Someone mentioned this a page back, but Zoroaster should be in the OP. I just got my hands on their latest album, Matador (a bit late, since it was released like half a year ago). I've already listened to it like 6 or 7 times, and it is seriously quickly becoming one of my favorite albums released in 2010. I don't know how I could've missed it. Actually I do know why I almost missed it: their only other album that I've heard is their self-titled release, and I could never really get into it.

I just wanted to mention that a few months ago, I was partly inspired by the music in this thread and the previous thread (and also the bass megathread) to learn how to play the bass guitar. It's one of the better decisions I've made in my life. So yeah, this thread kicks rear end

Idioteque Dance posted:Meanwhile, I just learned to play the oft-linked Dopefight - Saviour on guitar and while pretty simple, it is really really fun to play. Anybody have any other good songs they've been learning on guitar? I need to stop jamming so much and start building a repertoire, but I'd rather it be stoner/sludge/doom than more popular rock songs. Learning to play Kyuss songs is pretty fun. I've been teaching myself to play Asteroid, although I can't quite keep up with the fast part at the end. On the upside, it's pretty easy to find tabs for their songs if there are parts you're not sure about. edit: Bongripper is another good one. Worship is pretty easy to figure out and jam along with.

Frank Caskelot posted:Turns out Doomentia Records still had some, so I ordered it just now. I'll still want to see you live though. Any plans of coming to Finland again? We might even do some shows together. Hey thanks for the suggestion, I just bought one here as well. I also got my hands on both Atlas Moth albums recently, and both of them are good listens.

aliencowboy posted:I'm late to the game on Dopethrone. Goddamn. They've got a pretty righteous Weedeater/Electric Wizard thing going for themselves. I really like their second album. They've got a pretty good singer... it does kind of remind me of Weedeater. I haven't really gotten around to listening to the first album yet, I should do that sometime...

Doesn't look like anyone posted this yet, but the new Earth album is out. Already ordered my copy, I'm pretty stoked about it.

So apparently electric wizard is releasing a new 7" EP, "Legalize Drugs and Murder". I can't find much information on it though... as far as I can tell, it's sort of B sides from their upcoming album?

So electric wizard has two new songs out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RqJ9blAHHo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVxtRxHSa0Y&feature=relmfu The first song sounds pretty much exactly like their last two albums. The second song is the more interesting one. I'm somewhat disappointed actually. I was hoping they'd make the production sound heavier instead of just rehashing the last two albums.

Krabsworth posted:Is anyone else kind of...I don't know, turned off by this barrage of Sleep poo poo from Southern Lord? gently caress I love Sleep as much as anyone else, I've ran like three cd copies of Holy Mountain into the ground just through playing them nearly every day. But uh...different shirt/cd/vinyl/poster packages? Dopesmoker is already great as it is. It just seems really played out the way they are releasing this merchandise bomb. I suppose I'm not fanatic enough. I also haven't gone on discogs for a $100+ copy of Holy Mountain on a picture disc ever. Merchandise just isn't my thing, but if the band needs some money, whatever I guess. Checking amazon, a vinyl copy of Dopesmoker is currently priced at $350. It's cheaper on ebay, but still overpriced. So yeah, I'm pretty excited to actually be able to own a vinyl copy without paying outrageous prices  Besides, I hear the new remastering is great. Anyway, it's not like rereleasing the album makes it any less great - so I don't really see any problem with it. Otto Octopus fucked around with this message at 02:43 on Apr 25, 2012 |

casual poster posted:This is great, Dopesmoker was basically my intro into the world of doom/stoner metal (what a great place to start) and will never get old to me. For those of you who haven't checked out the documentary Such Hawks, Such Hounds, here's a small 8-minute documentary on the development of Dopesmoker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIyj--J43R0 Yeah, my current favorite pastime is listening to dopesmoker while learning to play it on my bass. That pretty much never gets old. I'll definitely check these out, thanks!

So the preorder is up for Bongripper's live Satan Worshipping Doom LP, at roadburn records, if anybody here is interested in vinyl. I ordered mine this morning.

Juaguocio posted:If those students were using this transcription as the basis for their performance, it's amazing that they sounded as good as they did, because it's completely wrong. The time signatures are all incorrect, and most of the bass riffs aren't even there. One of these days I'm going to try and transcribe the bass parts for that song. I'd really love to have a look at the actual sheet music they used.

So I just started listening to Ramesses, and they're super heavy. I really like their first ep, it really reminds me of the old days of electric wizard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTSWO-jCVBE And then in one of their songs, there's a sample where a guy says "Dig the music kids". So I was googling the quote to see where it's from. Instead I found this video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cXdGS1dgYw, labeled as music for children, and I unironically enjoyed it. Normally I listen to a lot of the doom / heavy stuff in this thread, so is it really weird that I liked this
