@onbradley

Do you really need to call him a fag?

[mishrazz]

I wish you would give the riffs a little more time. Like 30 sec each. it's hard to know what to make of this.

[hammishs]

great list but missing melvins and eyehategod hmmmm

[Destructerator]

sounds like regular riffs from bands who happen to identify themselves as doom metal bands.

[DSchruteBeets]

@MrRavenousRhinos Crap that my girlfriend makes me listen to in the car when I'd rather hear some Dinah Washington

[zamohix]

@MrRavenousRhinos it is fucking good music!

[CQVFilms]

@MrRavenousRhinos It is a subgenre of Heavy Metal largely influenced by Black Sabbath. Its characterized by a thicker sound and lyrics of doom and gloom. Look it up. Good shit.

@SalPbaby

Well nothing, I am just glad to see other kinds of doom for once.

[SalPbaby]

@ThyAcquiredDistaste the fuck's wrong with sabbath and sleep?
