And that is what was missing from Pagan Altar. They are melancolic, but they didn't give the "doomed" feeling like Trouble songs. I still like the band, but it doesn't feel doom metal to me.
I dunno why they call it doom metal. It's more like pagan metal or something. They sing about witches and sorcerers, their music is pretty much celtic-oriented. Not that I shall know what defines the genres, but where's doom in this?
Yes, my comment meant to imply that my knowledge about doom metal could be insufficient, so instead of telling me what I already know or reasoning like the other guy ("This IS doom metal") you might could enlighten me.
I might only see this way, because I started to look up doom metal bands after I had listened to Trouble, which sounded very doomed indeed. Their lyrics were melancolic and often very bleak, sometimes the guy seemed to be crying like a pansy emo, but it was still heavy metal.
@PurpleHat1991 Online, or if there's any metal record stores in your area, they might be carrying some copies. I sincerely doubt you'll find one in an HMV or anything.
@ThePriestofJudas you cant buy these albums you dumbass. and i do buy albums all the time. grow a pair and quit commenting on shit you know nothing about
Ah, my god yes!!! FUCKING AWESOME! i was researching doom metal after listening to some early sabbath, and to be honest i just picked a random name from the references Wikipedia gave and...wow, i actually found something worth listening to, this groups is just so...so...i don't know how else to say it, just so FUCKING AWESOME! HELL YES!
@solofortGR That's a hard one! hmm try to find some Witchfinder General, Trouble, Cirith Ungol. Can't say they are exactly the same but you'll probably like them :)
I've been looking around for a Pagan Altar shirt for a good couple of months as well. Your best bet would be to just get it online, I haven't been able to find one anywhere in my vicinity.
@wesbluemarine Hey man, I know it's been a year since you left the comment, but thought I'd let you know that Nightgaunt Graphics has a couple of Pagan Altar shirts available.
It's song that was sent by the heavens to illuminate humans.It's too perfect to be real.

@TheKristof91 Why does it matter to you? Doom is just a label someone at some point officially designated it...it's just good music

Try googling Pagan Altar, album title, and BUY. Or going on their own homepage. There is more to the internet than piratebay and isohunt.
