I'm looking for some Symphonic Doom that sounds like the first LP from Estatic Fear, only without the feminine vocals, if that's possible. Thanks in advance!

There’s actually an Argentinian band called Somberdance that’s pretty much the dollar-store version of Estatic Fear.

Can anyone recommend me melodic doom or maybe gothic metal songs/albums that have a riffing style similar to The Whore, The Cook and the Mother by My Dying Bride? Specifically the part at 1:10? The only vaguely similar music that comes to my mind is Jade by Flowing Tears (like the solo at the end of Lovesong for a Dead Child)?


This is one of my favorite albums ever and sadly the atmosphere is unmatched. I've always said that if I could live in this album I would.
Anyhow, For My Demons by Katatonia from the album Tonight's Decision and My Dying Bride's The Poorest Waltz from the album Map of All Our Failures come to mind for the beautiful extended lead guitar lines.

You will also find many beautiful leads and some similar rhythm sections strewn about on Moonspell's entire The Antidote album. Highly recommended!

Katatonia was actually one of the bands I was thinking of, it's somewhat similar indeed. I haven't listened to Map of All Our Failures or The Antidote, will check those albums out. Thanks, if you have anything else in your mind, please let me know. :)

More a single song than a whole band, but maybe Mourning Beloveth's Nothing Has a Centre? The clean "time passed unused" part has a similar massive wall of flowing chords approach.

It's similar to the beginning of "The Whore, The Cook and the Mother", but not to the melodic part that I was referring to. However, I quite liked that song. I actually loved their The Sullen Sulcus album, but then forgot about them for some reason. Definitely need to check out more of their stuff.

I admit I hadn't listened to your time stamp haha, I'd just assumed the song had a minute ten intro haha, my bad.

I have listened to The Antidote, and while it's a nice album, I didn't really find similar riffs to that song. The Poorest Waltz is kind of similar, though.

Can somebody please recommend me something in the vein of Candlemass' albums Dactylis Glomerata and From the 13th Sun or that Abstrakt Algebra album. You know, that kind of weird, murky, technical doom metal.

I'm gonna focus on this part of your request and recommend Confessor "Condemned" from 1991. A truly unique and awesome work of art, the only truly technical doom metal album I know, in fact if anyone has any recs like it then fire em my way.

There's lots of doom vibes in Morgana Lefay dark Power Metal. Like in this song which reminds of Leif Eidling's experiments:

Otherwise, I'm thinking you might like Nightly Gale's weirdness and thechnicality. The sole aspect of this doom band that puts me off are the vocals; But to each his own;

Better off listening to the latter then, I presume?

Yeah, sometimes the disciple surpasses the master, but this isn’t one of those cases. It’s a carbon copy (of the second, rather than the first LP) with lower production values; an interesting listen nonetheless, and not bad at scratching the itch if one really needs more of that specific sound.

Who here has heard Conan's latest album Evidence of Immortality? The whole album is good, but I want to bring special attention to the 14 minute instrumental behemoth that closes out the album. With prominent organs, it reminds me of funeral doom, and good funeral doom at that. I'm not the biggest fan of funeral doom, but Conan does it better than most funeral doom bands. I hope the organ becomes a regular feature in their future work.

Listen to Walk Through Fire's 2020 album ; it features organ on the song 'Den Uttan Botten'. Less fd vibes, more sludgy, but intense and bleak:

The Otolith is your call in this one.

Similarish band to Morphine's rec, from the same city too. This whole album is really good.
