  Fourth circle Registered the : 2010-06-14 Messages: 3420 | I want to see everyone's opinion on this Ominous genre. Taking the doom atmosphere and layering it with ambient, sustained guitar riffs played very slowly, and faded vocals. It seems to some just meaningless noise, but it maintains its rhythm somehow. The result is either a monolithic slab of doom (Sunn O))) ) or an emotional, calming piece (Asva).
I personally love the genre. Here are examples of the darker side of Drone and the calmer side: Sunn O))) Asva Last.fm: Mercenarion | ||

 forum's admin First circle Registered the : 2010-08-23 Messages: 3958    | I perfer the calmer stuff over the darker stuff. Some of the dark stuff is pretty good but the majority of it doen't usually work for me.  Hey, are you an archaeologist? Because I have a large bone that needs to be examined... www.miniradman.com | ||

Do you know of any more pure drone/drone doom bands aside from the progenitors (Sunn O))), Boris and Earth)? If you are a false, don't entry, or you'll be burned and died! | ||

The Human Quena Orchestra Khlyst (kind of) Nadja (sounds shoegazey at times) Black Boned Angel (Drone with Funeral doom, close enough) Vonn (fucking creepy at times) These are the guys that I can think of (at the moment) to be pure drone. Last.fm: Mercenarion | ||

Moss is another big one, as well as Darkspace. Although Darkspace limits all their shit so much that it's like finding the holy grail if you see anything by them. There's Burial Chamber Trio, but they had a super short career and only releasing two albums, having a grand total of 4 songs. 
Echtra's another pretty awesome one. I reviewed their album Paragate on SOM if you wanna look at that. They have such beautiful haunting stuff. I found a CD by a band called I Chaos that're pretty nice for dronin'. There's also Propergol, but they're really obscure and listening to them for over 10 minutes hurts my ears (you'll see why if you listen to the song Farenheit by them). And that's just about all the Drone bands I know, unless you wanna consider Om (fantastic band) a Drone band as well. In my opinion they're more Stoner doom, but a lot of people refer to them as a Drone band.  | ||
