...just atmospheric keyboards. Well, some doom that uses violins or keyboards or something. You know, the way MDB did on The Angel And The Dark River...And i prefer my doom crushingly sad, miserable and dark and what all. Let me add that i HATE Anathema. Well, The Silent Enigma is listenable, and Serenades has some decent parts, but Serenades still sucks. The other albums are pretty terrible.
I can't really think of any metal with violins to begin with. If you want sad and atmospheric doom, try Cultus Sanguine, Nortt, Mourning Beloveth, Arcane Sun, Worship, Void of Silence, etc. You might also like Primordial, as they are very atmospheric, sad and melancholic, but they have more of a folk/doom/black metal sound.
Dissolving of Prodigy - Time Ruins Also Beauty And your search is over. I have yet to find a doom album that beats this one in sadness.
I as well don't know many people that knows about it..I'm greek though...so there's one more reason..
Nightrealm - Bleakness If you're at all interested in melodic doom check out Mourning Beloveth and Slumber.
Have you heard the new Mourning Beloveth CD A Muderous Circus? It's awesome. You can download it from me on Soulseek.
No, I haven't heard the new one. And I would download it from you, but I have never been able to connect to you on slsk.
I prefere MDB 'Turn Loose The Swans' over 'The Angel and The Darkriver'. Though it's depressing it has better riffs. It's just a much better album. Like Gods of The Sun is better too.
