Henchman of Santa posted:In my experience, mosh pits at hardcore shows are terrible. Hardcore dancers throwing punches and spin-kicks everywhere are just embarrassing and they really don't give a poo poo if you don't want to participate. Most metal crowds are chiller about it. Working on the venue security side of things, I have to say that this is pretty much spot on. Hardcore pits are the absolute worst to deal with, mainly because of the pathetic spectacle it all becomes. Nice air kick, bro. edit: stoner metal shows have always been a treat to work.

The doom community is the best, from the internet to real life. When Yob played here there was just a hairy sea of hugs and beer. It ruled.

The last time I saw Yob, Mike hopped down into the crowd after the show and bullshitted with everyone for an hour or so. I would go to doom shows just to hang out with people because everyone is unusually friendly and laid back.

Any goons going to desertfest in London? I've been considering it ever since kvelertak were announced but Boris were just announced as the Sunday headliners so I sort of feel like it has to happen...

Polegrinder posted:I hope this isn't crossing the boundaries or whatever, but what about neo-folk? I just found out about King Dude and Of The Wand & The Moon. They are both slightly similar to Death in June and to a lesser extent, Current 93. Are there some doomy sounding folk bands? If you like that stuff you'd probably like Rome. They're not exactly doomy, but they are miserable as all hell, and one of my favourites in that style: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyZhcvvcXFU Boris is an awesome headliner for Desertfest, I should really go one year. It sucks that Kvelertak are in the Ballroom, they come across a lot better in smaller venues, without a barrier.

Current 93's Aleph at Hallucinatory Mountain is doomy, but it also doesn't sound like neofolk at all.

I'm glad someone's bringing up neofolk. Been getting really into that genre lately. I'm not entirely sure I would list Comus as neofolk, though. The new Current 93 album, I Am The Last of All The Field That Fell, is surprisingly doomy for an album that boasts Nick Cave and John Zorn among its ranks. Also, one of the guys from Comus.

Thanks for this thread. I haven't kept up with this stuff in a few years, even though it is my favorite genre(s), so it is cool to find out what is new with some bands I like (Toner Low and Truckfighters) and find some new ones to enjoy like Windhand and Sandrider.

For Current93/DiJ etc fans it's worth mentioning Six Organs of Admittance if you don't know them already. He's worked with Current93 people a bit and is in Comets on Fire as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YKJKT-hRq0

my fav neofolk band, tenhi from finland: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8uDlHN26xs that's from their latest album, saivo. it's real good, but my fav is maaäet from 2006: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80P1tf6fFWc 16 horsepower is not neo-folk, as neofolk has a pretty well established sound and aesthetic. neofolk is, like most genres, completely arbitrary. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neofolk Dyna Soar fucked around with this message at 15:47 on Feb 11, 2014 |

Winston Chill posted:poo poo's fantastic! I like this description from an article I just came across googling Monolord. "Remember that time you drove your battered old VW out into the woods, took an unfeasible amount of peyote and listened to nothing but Sleep, Ufomammut and YOB for four days straight? No? Well, this record is going to trigger one hell of a flashback, in that case…" Though I don't know if I'd go that far yet, but I really dig the sound they have. I'm going to have to get that album when it releases.

Here's track #1 from Ascent though, which is pretty groovy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyKKNK3lCXE

And I love that Lord Dying is coming back to Portland in March so I can see em again.

Some friends and I started a band not too long ago and we record all of our jams, if anyone wants to give a listen to this and give feedback that'd be rad. No vocals at the moment, writing the music first. This is one of the first songs we've got under our belts so it might be a bit rough around the edges, but I'm thinking I oughtta post it anyway because someone might get a kick out of it. Influences: Black Debbath, Black Mastiff, Atomic Bitchwax, Monster Magnet, Church of Misery, Fu Manchu, Clutch, etc.

I just discovered Candlemass - I've always avoided them, since I don't remember any of their music from the 80s, but I remember their videos being terrible. I finally actually listened to "Epicus Doomicus Metallicus", and I can't stop listening to it. "Solitude" is exactly what I've always imagined doom metal to be. I found it on Youtube, and don't want to be a mooch, so I'm going to probably buy it at some point, but what is the general consensus on Candlemass? Are their other albums this good? "Solitude" also seems easy to play along with on a bass tuned to D... or maybe I'm so awful I just *think* I sound good.

Have these guys been posted yet? The Well from Austin, TX. Psych rock in the same vein as Uncle Acid. They just have an EP that came out last year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85srlRq4Nzc And for something a little more wild and far out, Satan's Satyrs from Vriginia. Punk Doom, reminds me a lot of Venom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6At24fMp-Q

I haven't been able to keep this song out of my head since it's been posted. I like the atmosphere and the lyrics seem really weird but strangely poetic. Problem is, I understand only like half of it, which really bugs me in such a minimalist song. Could a native speaker help me figure out the lyrics? Here's what I got: I want to puke a pitch black rainbow of bile and ??? up to the sun to put it out 93 billion miles ??? will vomit forth, spilling out, spewing out to black the sun come from me, come from me bitter black and ??? rise to the ??? give to us, give to us darkened days and ??? down the heat, down the heat ???

I'm heading there, Boris is one of my all time favorites and I have no idea when I'll get the next chance to see them again. Can anyone tell me what to expect at Desertfest? Not so much musically, but the general atmosphere of the place. The closest thing I've ever been to a stoner concert was Black Sabbath's recent reunion tour and I somehow doubt they're all that similar.
