That's awesome, I've been on the look out for some cool Orthodox Doom or metal in general. Haven't found much except for a couple black metal bands which was always one of my least favorite metal subgenres.
What are you listening to?

Kyuss is exactly why I decided to play bass in a rock band! Well, them and Geddy Lee.
Love Cheap Trick (and power pop). Saw them in PA on 9/11 at an outdoor winery. No masks except for their road crew. Maybe a culture shock for them.
This is awesome!
He can play, but that kind of music just causes me heart pain like 10 cups of coffee. I had the boxes pretty loud when I started to play it. What is the difference between Doom and Death Metal?
Death metal is usually more technical with growling or screaming vocals, Doom usually has more "empty space" and has clean vocals. There's a subset of death metal called "melodic death metal" that is closer to traditional metal but even then the vocals usually make it unlistenable for me. This band, Mercenary, actually blends different metal genres together very well and thus I can tolerate their screamy stuff since it's done in small doses rather than overwhelmingly.
Death Metal is usually faster, has growls, where doom metal is very dark and usually doesnt have the growling vocals, frequently its also got slower power cords.
My favorite Death Metal is Opeth's first 6 Albums though that band is not really a purely death metal band as they play everything from Death Metal to Jazz/Funk ect...
Death Metal examples
Opeth -their old stuff (new stuff is totally different
Death
Morbid Angel (I dont listen to but they are OG death metal)
Doom Metal examples are:
Cirith Ungol
Saint Vitus
Then there is Black Metal which is about witchcraft and devil worship ect that has a lot of blast beats and a screaming/growling and solos (Behemoth is an example but I stay away from the overtly Evil/Lusciferian musci)

Thanks. I think, it is all horrible and causes me physical pain, but I like that humans come up with stuff like that. It shows, what a unique creation we are. I check out Mercenary, but on low volume.
Some good Metal
(I'd consider Death Metal but thats arguable as to what genre )
GOROD: Very heavy but tehcnically flawless
Fractal Universe: Melodic but also brutal
Hypocrisy has a song about Pharmacueticals and being addicted to big pharma/drugs and being controlled. ITs pretty apropos considering the Covid push.

Thanks, I check all of it out, because you guys gave a good introduction into the matter.
Id really check out the Fractal Universe band.
You can see the technicality of the music by this vidoe where the drummer plays just the instruments (no vocals)
Being a drummer myself, thats usually the first thing I look at, how challenging the time signatures/fills/breakdowns ect are.
I checked out some of your recommendations. I admire the technical mastership, but now I need a dose of Ace of Base to calm down.
