	Metal-Rules.com: Concert Reviews - Candlemass
		The reunited Swedish doom legends definitely enjoy a huge cult status and reputation among the doom metal freaks nowadays.
		The pentad definitely appeared to be in the brilliant strike in front of the small, but at least enthusiastic, metal crowd raging diving like in the old days.
		Candlemass' doom crusade throughout several European countries will be released on the DVD later this year or at least in the early of the next year to give an opportunity for other bewitched doom fans to have a feeling of the real doom metal legends.

	Doom metal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Doom metal is a form of heavy metal that emerged as a recognized genre of metal in the mid-1980s.
		Doom metal is slow and heavy, with a pessimistic nature and often with intentions to evoke an atmosphere of darkness, despair and misery.
		Doom metal first became widely recognized within the metal scene with Sweden's Candlemass, who are hailed in the mainstream metal press as one of the most important and influential doom metal bands; their 1986 album Epicus Doomicus Metallicus is considered a genre-defining release.

	Doom metal
		Doom metal is a type of heavy metal music which developed in the mid 1980s.
		When the sound developed, bands like Trouble[?] and Candlemass[?] were critically acclaimed for their return to the old school sounds of Black Sabbath and Blue Oyster Cult, though sales were slim; metal audiences at the time were listening to thrash metal or hair metal, and both were swift, hard and energetic, very unlike doom metal.
		The old school imitation of 1970s bands was picked up by stoner metal groups, while a New Orleans metal scene developed a gothic rock/doom metal hybrid that came to be known as sludge metal[?].

		One of the more extreme forms of metal, death metal is basically an offshoot of thrash, with less melodic riffs and a low, growly, often almost unintelligible vocal style that at its best (or worst, depending on one's point of view) has been described as "cookie monster vocals".
		Black Sabbath are, of course, the fathers of metal in general, but their early work concentrated on slow riffing and thus is the primary influence on doom metal bands.
		A subgenre of doom metal, doomdeath combines the slow pace of doom with the low, growly vocal style of death metal.

	Dark metal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dark metal is a subjective term used to describe metal bands from various genres that have combined traits from gothic metal, doom metal, death metal and fl metal such as synthesizer use, acoustic guitar experimentation and/or operatic female vocals.
		The term is thought to have been coined by German Band Bethlehem, with their album Dark Metal from 1994.
		Samael, Tiamat, Daylight Dies and Rotting Christ[2] have been termed as "dark metal", however, more popular artists like Opeth, Katatonia and Lacuna Coil can be attributed to some extent as well for their sound.

		And yet death metal, and later on fl metal, would become the musical trends that extreme music was most known for in the mid-to-late '90s.
		Trouble made their start there, possessing many doom metal overtones before they psychedelified later on, yet, in reality, the extreme bands originating in the Windy City haven't made as much of an impact as bands from the New York or Bay Area scenes.
		Well, Novembers Doom have a chance to hit it big with 'The Knowing', a concept album that dwells within the recesses of doom metal, but with a sound that is actually unique to the band.

	BNR Metal Pages -- Candlemass (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Candlemass is widely acknowledged as one of the founders of the modern doom metal movement.
		Founded by Leif Edling after the demise of his previous band Nemesis, the group immediately made its mark with their debut, Epicus Doomicus Metallicus, a true landmark in the doom field (and a BNR favorite), though it was the arrival of charismatic vocalist Messiah Marcolin that the band's trademark sound began to develop.
		While not the pure doom of the classic era, these two albums are quite heavy and quite recommended, though they have not met with the same level of acceptance as the earlier albums.

		I don't know what exactly "Doom Metal" is usually defined as, but I know what I like, and this album is absolutely it.
		This wasn't supposed to be power metal, nor was it supposed to be straight doom metal, either, but an amalgamation of the better parts of both genres, combined to form a cohesive whole.
		In short, a doom metal record for people who don't like doom metal, but simultaneously awesome enough to impress even die hard followers of the genre.

		Doom acts were ridiculed for their copycat Sabbath riffs and retro imagery.
		If the word doom is mentioned, it generally brings an image of graveyards, depressive subjects, slow tempos and 70's clothing for those not in love with this musical form.
		Doom metal is not depressing to listen to.

		One of the leading American doom metal acts of the '80s (along with Trouble and the Obsessed), Saint Vitus was cursed with public indifference throughout their decade-plus career, which both started and ended in frustrating obscurity.
		It's universally agreed that the originators of the doom metal genre are Black Sabbath, but there were several bands of the '80s/early '90s who kept the style alive (during Sabbath's "lean years"), such as Saint Vitus, Trouble, Candlemass, and, especially, the U.K.-based Cathedral.
		During the mid-80's, the European heavy metal scene was dominated by countless thrash, death, and fl metal bands playing at breakneck speeds and screaming in a high-pitched frenzy.

		Gothic doom metal is likely to be along the lines of My Dying Bride etc. That is, overblown, romantic lyrics with masses of keyboards against a backdrop of what is essentially slowed down death metal.
		There are loads of different styles of doom metal and the genre has become so wide that any band that plays reasonably slowly and has lyrics that aren't about gutting your mother is included.
		I have seen it classed as Doom Metal before but it sounds kinda different from other bands of the genre that I have heard so far (I haven't heard much Doom Metal yet though).

		For doom newbies the CD 'As It Is, As It Was: The Best Of Candlemass' (Music For Nations, 1994) gives a good overview of their works.

	Aarni - Galactical doom metal
		Firebox Records has recently released a split CD containing songs from two young promising bands that try to enlighten the doom metal scene with their music (and in my humble opinion, they have certainly achieved this goal).
		Aarni is one of those acts, and they perform a strange blend of reflective doom metal with "galactic" elements, being the result a style rather interesting...
		My problem with fl metal is that I still haven't come across a band which seems anything other than a form of 80's speed metal or punk done with bad vocals and teenage angst.

		Like grindcore, doom metal exists at the outer reaches of commonly accepted musical tempos--but while grindcore pushes the envelope for speed, doom metal drops the pace to an ominous crawl.
		Doom metal emerged in the late '80s as a reaction to trends in metal that saw the genre getting faster (thanks to thrash) and poppier (courtesy of the hair bands).
		Doom metal's gothic strain was slightly baroque, utilizing keyboards and female vocals for a more delicate view of the hereafter; however, by the early '90s, a new school of American acts like Sleep and Earth began pursuing unforgivingly heavy droning doom, even releasing entire albums featuring a single distorted bass note with no rhythmic counterpart.

	Katatonia - Melodic Doom/Black Metal
		Yet instrumentation is precise, and rock theory has been expanded for creativity in delivering the dynamic shape of atmosphere across a range of phrases, giving nods to the classics of fl metal and their power in breaking musical ideas into melody.
		Of those, there is little to fear: the semi-waltz beats of mainstream fl metal mixed with atomspheric rock bridges and choruses, raining sentiment from their maudlin and moribund discourse.
		Where the "melodic metal" movement brings heavy metal and goth into metal, there are few successes, but for sheer musicality and mastery of aesthetic this band dominates them, while understandably not finding the influential minds of the underground impressed.
