^Yes, but not epic doom. No one mentioned the Lamp of Thoth? which reminds me I have to order that ep.

Excellent recommendations so far...I'm loving some of the bands mentioned here.(Although i have listened to majority of em b4)
Also check out sahg/The sword.
If you wanna listen to some black sabbath rip-off(in a good way  ), then they are for you! |

Yeah, I've listened to The Sword before. I think they're pretty cool. Fun, Sabbath-y rock. And their newest record has some songs inspired by Martin's Song of Ice and Fire saga.

ya...their new album is great in my opinion.
Has a bit more diversity, and even if the overall sound remains the same, i really did enjoy it.
Even got used to their vocals...fits very well actually for what they do.

The Sword are terrible, and quite honestly come off as a mockery of metal in general.

Ok, so I've been having this on repeat since I got the album. They are so fucking good. :-D |

I prefer Isen Torr I think over Atlantean Kodex for European epic metal, but both are quite good.
As for The Sword: not MUSICALLY terrible but considering how hipstery they are and the fact that they do nothing better than a lot of better Sabbath-throwback bands, there's no reason to listen to them.

isen Torr is really good too. But I don't know, The Atlantean Kodex demo/mcd has touched me the right way. It is probably the big Solstice influence that does it.

Lamented Souls
Another Messiah

Dantesco definitely is worth checking out.
Also maybe try Dark Quarterer who are more epic heavy metal but there was a lot of crossover back then between heavy/doom metal so it could be right for you.
